Blackmagic Design today announced that more than 60 projects at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival used its digital films cameras, DaVinci Resolve Studio editing, grading, visual effects (VFX) and audio post production software and Blackmagic Cloud as part of their workflows.
Using Blackmagic Cloud has made major improvements in how I have been able to work during these pandemic days where many long time collaborators have relocated, said Colorist Natacha Ikoli of Nice Dissolve. For complex conform with multiple archives and sources, it meant being able to start color a little earlier than we normally would because conform could take place while look set sessions were happening. Blackmagic Cloud also gave me the flexibility to work from Nice Dissolve's studio, from my home studio in Brooklyn and in France seamlessly, never worrying about the latest versions of the project.

Some of the Sundance projects that used Blackmagic Design cameras include:
A Common Sequence Co directors Mary Helena Clark and Mike Gibisser used Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 4.6K and Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro digital film cameras;
Fantastic Machine Directors Axel Danielson and Maximilien Van Aertryck used Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro;
Going to Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project DP Derek Wiesehahn used Pocket Cinema Camera 4K and URSA Mini Pro 4.6K;
Going Varsity in Mariachi Sound Recordist Charlie Vela used Pocket Cinema Camera 4K for select sequences;
Infinity Pool DP Karim Hussain used Pocket Cinema Camera 6K for insert and 2nd unit shots;
Nam June Paik: Moon Is the Oldest TV DP Nelson Walker used Pocket Cinema Camera 6K for select interviews;
Rye Lane DP Olan Collardy used Pocket Cinema Camera 4K for select scenes; and
Sometimes I Think About Dying DP Dustin Lane used Pocket Cinema Camera 6K for B unit photography.
DaVinci Resolve Studio continues to support numerous facets of the production and post pipelines, and as Post Producer JP Castel noted, it was used by multiple departments on My Animal.
In addition to grading, editorial used DaVinci Resolve Studio to edit the entire movie, with multiple editors working in various cities and trading DRTs between them seamlessly. We then discovered multi user edit sessions in Blackmagic Cloud, which was a total game changer, and we couldn't have finished the movie without it, he said. We also used Fairlight after picture lock to separate and deliver audio stems via buses and export AFFs to the various audio departments. Fusion was also used extensively for small effects in the film, mostly masking various shots together.
