‘Captain Phillips’, ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’, ‘Nebraska’ and ‘Gravity’ used the solution for monitoring and recording of Convergent Design.

The Gemini 4: 4: 4 recorder/monitor Convergent Design He has been present in several of the productions that now aspire to obtain an Oscar.

Three nominated for best film and two for best photography used this solution. Captain Phillips, directed by Paul Grengrass, with photography by Barry Ackroyd; The Wall Street wolf, De Martin Scorsese with photos of Rodrigo Prieto; Nebraska, by Alexander Payne, with Phedon Papamichael in the photograph; and Gravity, by Alfonso Cuonon with photography by Emmanuel Lubezki, they are the films that integrated in their workflows the convergent design systems.

All these films were filmed with Arri Alexa cameras and captured the materials in 2.8k Ariraw directly at the Gemini 04:04:04, the smallest Arriraw recorder in the world. With its 5 ”Dual SSDS of 1.8”, the convergent design proposal was ideal for the air shots that were carried out in Captain Phillips or The Wall Street wolf shot with the Canon C500 con salida 4K RAW.

After the success of the Gemini, Convergent Design now has the Odyssey7Q, which offers the same advantages as its predecessor but with an OLED 7.7 ”screen and greater recording options. ODYSSEY7Q includes the multi-stream option, which allows to monitor and record up to four simultaneous HD signals.
