Sure...IBC was several weeks ago, but we've got some more stuff we found interesting in the show. We cover items such as the RED camera, Gridiron Software's AE plugin Nucleo Pro, announcements from The Foundry, as well as a few more bits on wiretap apps for Autodesk products. This week's podcast contains interviews with RED camera principals as well as Blackmagic Design's Grant Petty.

There wasn't a huge gimongous public announcment at IBC, but Autodesk has revamped their hardware for the system products line. The company is switching from IBM to HP workstations, as well as changing their video I/O hardware for flame and smoke systems. We cover what we know about the new hardware and provide an overview of the new features in the "2007" effects and editing releases....

Greeetings from Amsterdam. We only had a bit of time at the show on the first day, after landing from the states around midday, but we did find some stuff that'll be of interest to flame and smoke users. After years of the discreet file system being closed to outisde access, At IBC we saw several announcements regarding new WireTap-based apps. These applications allow users to access the stonefs via mount points on PC's or view stonefs material metadata in web browsers.

DI With the Power to Comp in HDR AND Refocus Your Telecine |

What would you get if you crossed a toxik with a lustre and made it look like a flame? We asked Dan Tatut, the CEO of CHROME Imaging whoe are makers of the insanely interesting "Matrix compositor". While initially speced to be a compositing system, the product is really aimed at the TVC DI market. The product is a major standalone turn-key system in the mold of Quantel, Discreet, 5D and the Sony Socratto. It was the shake up in that pack that lead to the CHROME Imaging team refocusing on the DI market.

World Trade Center - Being Faithful |

This week we look behind Oliver Stone's newest masterpiece, World Trade Center. Double Negative was responsible for recreating possibly some of the most iconic footage of the modern age. It is one thing to recreate or create mythical worlds or fantasy environments, it is something else to reproduce images that are still extremely vivid in the popular culture, and obviously very sensitive.
