The ATOMOS CONNECT and SHOGUN CONNECT have received new firmware that now enables them to be used with Frame.io Camera to Cloud workflows.
Cameras using the ATOMOS CONNECT or SHOGUN CONNECT can now be used to collaborate in real-time, with support for remote team members, regardless of the location or the budget.
A C2C workflow provides a direct path for production to send media directly to the post-production teams. Media is transferred from C2C certified devices on set to the cloud, for viewing, approval, and editing.
So how does it work? ATOMOS CONNECT or SHOGUN CONNECT devices are paired with Frame.io by using ATOMOS Cloud Studio. Once the devices are registered and linked to a Frame.io account, media can be uploaded immediately. Every file is instantly available to view in Frame.io, or download into integrated video applications, including Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
According to Frame.io and ATOMOS, the roadmap for C2C could very well see a tipping point in the next few years where internet bandwidth will become ubiquitous. As a result, cameras may be able to dispense with removable media entirely (although I don’t personally think this will happen) and it may well be common practice for filmmakers to use C2C to upload full resolution 8K RAW files from remote locations.
Recently Trevor Elbourne, ATOMOS CEO, Paul Scurrell, ATOMOS Senior VP Product, and Michael Cioni, Senior Director of Global Innovation at Adobe, sat for a virtual roundtable with filmmakers, Armando Ferreira, Bobby Goulding, and Dru Williams to talk about the way filmmaking is evolving. In a wide-ranging conversation, the panelists discussed the state of the industry, how Frame.io and ATOMOS technologies have already had an impact on their productions, and how new ATOMOS devices will further accelerate their workflow, while introducing new ways for their teams to collaborate. You can watch the ATOMOS roundtable discussion during their YouTube premiere on Thursday, August 18th at 11am PDT.
Frame.io C2C support is included in AtomOS 10.81 available for download now from my.atomos.com.
