FORscene used on 'The Unforgettables'
Forbidden Technologies, the AIM quoted developer of the market leading Cloud video platform FORscene,today announced that North One Television, part of All3Media, is using FORscene for the production of a new series of 'The Unforgettables'.
'The Unforgettables' will be aired on ITV1 and features archived material of many of the UK's best loved stars, including; Jeremy Beadle, Bob Monkhouse, Harry Secombe, Mike Reid, Mollie Sugden, Spike Milligan, Terry Scott and Danny La Rue.
North One Television is a long standing customer that has used FORscene for several years. DigiBeta rushes shot throughout were split-digitised into FORscene Load and local storage. Archive material was also digitised into FORscene, where loggers added searchable metadata, and directors made rough-cut edits. Sequences were then re-linked in edit suites for finishing.
Kirsten Johnson, Production Manager at North One Television, commented:
"On 'The Unforgettables' we used FORscene to improve our use of archived material. It allowed us to centralise all material whether archived or recent. We made good use of FORscene's powerful visual access and search functionality throughout the production."
Pete Burns, Project Manager at Forbidden Technologies, said:
"This production highlights the flexibility of FORscene in Broadcast Post Production, in particular, maximising the use of archive material."
