The strategy will be initially deployed through the Sony Parties business units. Working in a consolidated, highly collaborative fashion, the Sony Parties will build-out a means for digital distribution with the following capabilities (described further in subsequent sections): • Enable low cost, automated, file-based distribution content processing and delivery workflows to supplant both physical media and file based workflows that SPE currently outsources to suppliers; • Adapt to new formats and content processing enhancements as the market and technologies evolve; • “Commercialize” the service such that DADC can market it in any manner or fashion and to any viable market segment that could make use of the services; • Be ”content agnostic” (in terms of the type or eventual use of the digital content) to accommodate any digital content; and, • Exploit supply chain best practices, adapted to a digital media flow. This document and its supporting appendices provide background and context, describe the RFP process, summarize the Sony Parties’ strategy, and provide guidance about the scope of this first release of our multi-release implementation approach. We appreciate the challenge presented with our approach as we intend to clearly articulate our expectations without materially restricting your ability to respond with creative and innovating approaches and tools to support our stated requirements as well as those that may not be specifically described. If anywhere we should fail to articulate some aspect that you believe to be pivotal, we encourage you to ask and to propose your most creative approaches and solutions. Your proposal will be for Release 1 only; however, we want to ensure that later releases are not adversely hampered by decisions made for this release or, worse, that the grander vision cannot be economically realized. Therefore, we provide information beyond Release 1 to facilitate that planning. This RFP is but one element of our proposal process. This document coupled with your questions and at least 2 conferences should enable you to gather the information needed to respond to our request. 4 CONFIDENTIAL SPE/DADC Request for Proposal 1.02 Strategy and Context The Sony Parties have developed a multi-phased, multi-year approach to establish and operate the Distribution Backbone (DBB) and to make operational the resulting solutions and services into a full-fledged offering by DADC to a broader market. The strategy to achieve this vision includes ingesting content digitally and managing it seamlessly through delivery to a client. Although content supply chains have become more and more digital, physical media and manual workflows still proliferate around ingest, storage, product assembly and package delivery. Media Service Companies have been slow to leverage automated file based workflows because they have made huge capital investments in their film and tape infrastructures and want to protect revenue streams from activities that would be made redundant by the new workflows. But the maturation of SOA technology, and decreased costs for generic storage and processing power have enabled a significant opportunity to orchestrate manual workflows and create an infrastructure that minimizes the need for physical media. An automated, scalable, flexible and low-cost solution is an imperative to support new paradigms in entertainment distribution. Sony Corporation is uniquely positioned to develop, operate and market the solution, which is core to its mission and competitive advantage. Our strategy calls for building on the Release 1 infrastructure with additional processing functionality which will enable additional content and clients to be serviced. The ultimate end-state is to have all digital content and all digital-ready clients be serviced wholly through the DBB, ideally with no labor contribution.

  • Camera Raw Workflows
    RAW WORKFLOWS: FROM CAMERA TO POST Copyright 2007, Jason Rodriguez, Silicon Imaging, Inc. Introduction What is a RAW file format, and what cameras shoot to these formats? How does working with RAW file-format cameras change the way I shoot? What changes are happening inside the camera I need to be aware of, and what happens when I go into post? What are the available post paths? Is there just one, or are there many ways to reach my end goals? What post tools support RAW file format workflows? How do RAW codecs like CineForm RAW enable me to work faster and with more efficiency? What is a RAW file? In simplest terms is the native digital data off the sensor's A/D converter with no further destructive DSP processing applied Derived from a photometrically linear data source, or can be reconstructed to produce data that directly correspond to the light that was captured by the sensor at the time of exposure (i.e., LOG->Lin reverse LUT) Photometrically Linear 1:1 Photons Digital Values Doubling of light means doubling of digitally encoded value What is a RAW file? In film-analogy would be termed a “digital negative” because it is a latent representation of the light that was captured by the sensor (up to the limit of the full-well capacity of the sensor) “RAW” cameras include Thomson Viper, Arri D-20, Dalsa Evolution 4K, Silicon Imaging SI-2K, Red One, Vision Research Phantom, noXHD, Reel-Stream “Quasi-RAW” cameras include the Panavision Genesis In-Camera Processing Most non-RAW cameras on the market record to 8-bit YUV formats
