INTERWOVEN INC GOES PRIMETIME WITH BLUEFISH444

April 11, 2008

“What I like best about the SD|Prime card is that it simply works. Many companies claim ‘out of the box’ connectivity but few can live up to it. The Bluefish444 team has done their homework and this product really works ‘out of the box. I also love the integrated serial connection since that is a long-gone feature of most computer systems, and therefore no serial/USB converters are necessary. The card has more than lived up to my expectations.”

Jeff Cowan, Director of Marketing and Communications

The Bluefish 444 HD|Lust enabled Giant Asian Robots to capture the uncompressed output directly from the camera at a higher resolution than what was available to them if they captured from tape. With the amount of post production going into every frame, the extra color information Giant Asian Robots received from the Bluefish444 HD|Lust was extremely important so they could maintain the downstream image qualit

IMAGE LINE PRODUCTIONS MOTIVATES, EDUCATES & ENTERTAINS IN REAL TIME WITH BLUFISH444 HD|FURY AND ADOBE PREMIERE PRO

“Bluefish has been taking quite a bit of abuse from us in the form of different file formats, computer installations and also, gasp, traveling. We took the machine with us onto the green screen stage to record directly onto the media drive so that we could bypass the Sony HDCAM compression so that we can get a pristine image for keying. That worked like magic.  We found the HD|Fury very resilient and flexible. We use it both for HD and SD shows.”
 

7th April 2005. DUCKLING CONFORMS FEATURE WITH HD|LUST AND AVID DS NITRIS!

"The nice thing about this workflow is that you have all the raw files as frame stacks available throughout the facility without spending time on exporting. We could instantly access the material in 3rd party tools like shake. And easily outsource VFX shots to non expensive workstations.
I would definitely recommend this workflow for long form projects with a lot of effect shot where material needs to be shared amongst artist."
 

August 19, 2004 Blu make use of Bluefish444’s products in development on BluBox
"In our search for a DirectX graphics adapter with SDI output we were introduced to the BlueFish444 series of cards. These cards allow for fast copying of frames or fields from a separate graphics adapter for output via a genlockable broadcast quality SDI output."

July 7th, 2004 Wideeye interactive upgrades Wildblue AV drivers to OSX Panther & FCP 4.1 in a G4 then to G5.
I purchased a Bluefish444 Wildblue|AV card 18 months ago to use in my G4 1.25 GHz with FCP 3 (2GB RAM with ATTO UL3D SCSI card). Being new to high-end video and on a tight budget, I bought the card knowing it would work on the PC and Mac platforms. I could always install the Wildblue|AV in my PC if the Mac did not work. However I used this configuration to make commercials successfully with my Mac. Still just knowing my card works in my PC adds value for me.
 

 
May 30th, 2004 Image Engine uses the Bluefish444 HD 10 Bit Cineon workflow
"Image engine required a 10 bit uncompressed Cineon file format workflow solution. We needed a tool to digitize HD material to the Cineon file format and export it back to tape frame accurately. Preferably, we needed an I/O solution compatible with our existing Windows visual effects applications."

Amalgamated Clyde, Inc. Dives into WildBlue AV

"We captured all of the material from the shoot directly through Premiere Pro. The very first thing we noticed when we played back the captured footage was that it looked exactly like the source footage. It had a transparency that I hadn’t seen from any other card or NLE that I have worked with. I compared the results to footage captured with another of our NLE systems and really noticed the difference by comparing the grain structure of the film image, which was somewhat blurred-out by the other uncompressed capture card. There were also subtle color shifts in the footage that were not present in the clips captured with the Wildblue. "

Digital Film Group goes blue with HD|Lust and Symmetry!
"The system worked flawlessly - once we had our drive array configured, we couldn't break it no matter what we threw at it. The SYMMETRY SOFTWARE GUI interface is monkey-simple, and as lean and mean as I/O software needs to be. We also love the BLUEFISH444 HD | LUST’s ability to capture to the DPX image specification, preserving important production data early in the feature film finishing chain."
