Blackmagic Cams and Frame.io C2C intergration

PostThu Feb 11, 2021 8:30 pm

Really exciting updates from Frame.io this evening on their Camera to Cloud (C2C) workflows. Fingers crossed BM add compatibility to the cameras in the next firmware update! (please!)

The announcement stream was also very well produced; I remember meeting with Frame at NAB a few years ago when they had a small table in the RED booth.

The workflow demonstrated by Frame.io requires the cameras to send not only the timecode, but also the file name over SDI. So BMD would have some work to do for their cameras to work C2C because AFAIK none of the BMD camera models currently send the file names over SDI/HDMI.

Agreed. This has always surprised me; if they would send file names / timecodes it would make the video assists even more powerful for proxy workflows etc

Played around with Camera 2 Cloud and here’s the Film Jams episode we made about it. Definitely all for Blackmagic Design getting a firmware update out for the camera file names to go over SDI. Look for the Pocket 6K Pro cameo in the video!
