Patent ID: 8184260

Claim:
A system for generating digital dailies, comprising: a common storage device ( 110 ); an audio ingest station ( 120 ), in signal communication with said common storage device, for processing audio data and storing the processed audio data in the common storage device; an image ingest station ( 130 ), in signal communication with said common storage device, for processing video data and storing the processed video data in the common storage device; a virtual telecine ( 135 ), in signal communication with said common storage device, for color correcting the processed video data and synchronizing the color-corrected processed video data with the processed audio data, and storing the synchronized video data and audio data in the common storage device; and an output station ( 140 ), in signal communication with said common storage device, for processing the synchronized video data and audio data to output the digital dailies therefrom, wherein the common storage device allows for at least a partial parallelization of at least some processes performed by at least two of the audio ingest station, the image ingest station, the virtual telecine, and the output station.
