SIRT Powers Virtual Production Hub with URSA Mini Pro 12K

PostMon Jul 12, 2021 2:12 pm

Blackmagic Design today announced that Sheridan College’s Screen Industries Research and Training (SIRT) Centre has built its new Virtual Production Innovation Hub using a range of Blackmagic Design products, including an URSA Mini Pro 12K digital film camera. As a leading research center, SIRT created the Virtual Production Innovation Hub to help the industry shift to remote virtual production as a result of the pandemic.

SIRT was established by Sheridan College in 2009 as a destination for training, collaboration and creation for the screen based industry. Based in Toronto, ON, SIRT focuses on driving innovation for digital image capture and creative processes for the film, television and gaming industries. The Virtual Production Innovation Hub is located in Pinewood Toronto Studios as part of SIRT’s state of the art production studio and lab facility.

SIRT recently selected the URSA Mini Pro 12K to be the main camera for recording talent in front of the hub’s LED wall. “We tested several cameras’ shutter compatibility with the LED wall, and the URSA Mini Pro 12K worked exceptionally well. It was able to deal with moiré and scan lines far better than the others,” said Kevin Santos, SIRT’s Junior Film Production Specialist. “We selected the camera for its impressive resolution sizes and high dynamic range, as well as its easy integration with DaVinci Resolve Studio, since we use that throughout the rest of our pipeline. We find DaVinci Resolve Studio’s editing experience very intuitive, and now with the URSA Mini Pro 12K, everything is quite seamless.”
