On-Set Live! look-creation and grading:

On-Set Live! provides a full end-to-end production workflow with live grading that is fully compatible with dailies, and streamlines color pipelines. It can work with live SDI feeds from multiple cameras, and enables the DIT or on-set color grader to create and manage looks, preview footage and grade on a live RAW camera signal. It supports various color pipelines including the latest IIF/ACES workflow, and can be used with external 3DLUT boxes, such as Pandora Pluto, Blackmagic Design HDLink Pro and T-Cube Fig, for color space conversion, calibration and grading. Camera and lens metadata, including color temperature, ISO, focus and zoom parameters, can be captured and logged or burnt-in.
