# Blackmagic Design

Blackmagic Design Pty Ltd is an Australian digital cinema company and manufacturer based in South Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It designs and produces broadcast and cinema-grade hardware; notably, high-end digital movie cameras, and also develops video editing software, such as the DaVinci Resolve and Blackmagic Fusion applications.

## History

The company was founded in 2001 by Grant Petty and produced its first product, a capture card for macOS called DeckLink that was the first to offer uncompressed 10-bit video, in 2002. The company later released newer versions of the product and added color-correction capabilities, support for Windows, and full support for Adobe Premiere Pro and Microsoft DirectShow.
* In 2005 the company released several products, including the Multibridge family of PCIe bi-directional converters and the FrameLink family of DPX-based software.
* In 2006 the company released Blackmagic On-Air television production software.
* In 2009 the company acquired the American based Da Vinci Systems, best known for its color-correction and color-grading products.
* In 2010 the company acquired the intellectual property of Echolab and the ATEM line of production video switchers.
* At the 2012 NAB Show Blackmagic Design announced its first Cinema Camera.
* In 2014 the company acquired eyeon Software Inc, known for the Blackmagic Fusion compositing software.
* In 2014 the company acquired Cintel, the film scanning and preservation company, which has its roots as the Baird Television Company, founded by John Logie Baird in 1927.
* In September 2016 the company acquired Fairlight.
* In 2018, Blackmagic Design became a participant in Netflix's all four categories for its Post Technology Alliance which includes both URSA cinema cameras and DaVinci Resolve. In the same year, Blackmagic Design also partnered with Apple to create the Blackmagic eGPU which was sold exclusively through the Apple Store for the first 6 months upon release. This was followed by the Blackmagic eGPU Pro which was also solely sold through the Apple Store.
* In 2023, Blackmagic Design released the Blackmagic Camera app for iPhone. It allows users to record video in Apple ProRes or H.264/H.265 clips to local storage on the phone or straight to DaVinci Resolve using Blackmagic Cloud. Later updates added support for selected Android phones, external monitors, timecode sync, wireless follow focus integration, and more.
