AUSTIN, TX – BOXX Technologies delivers technology to the innovators in the digital media community with flexible, high-performance workstations designed to enhance creativity and fuel innovation. Today BOXX introduces the HDV [pro] editing workstation and solidifies a new business relationship with CineForm, Inc. to offer Aspect HD as an add-on option to the new system. With prices starting at less than $3,200, HDV [pro] gives price-sensitive customers a powerful way to quickly and seamlessly incorporate HD video into their workflow.
Visit BOXX (booth #SL1755) at NAB 2004 in Las Vegas for a firsthand look at CineForm’s Aspect HD on a BOXX HDV [pro] system.
Aspect HD uses a visually-lossless CFHD codec to deliver four or more HD video streams for real-time editing, including transitions, effects, color adjustments, title and graphic overlays and motion. The system captures directly from JVC’s JY-HD10U and GR-HD1 camcorders and JVC’s high-definition D-VHS deck over 1394 Firewire and exports to a variety of HD or standard definition output formats such as MPEG2-HD, Windows Media 9 and standard DVD.
“As the use of HD expands, new products continue to enter the market with a promise to simplify working with HD video footage,” says Ed Caracappa, director of sales and marketing at BOXX. “CineForm’s Aspect HD software delivers on that promise by seamlessly working with Adobe Premiere Pro to edit high-definition video in real time. We’re so impressed with this solution; we believe it is a powerful extension to our robust suite of digital video editing workstations.”
“CineForm’s Aspect HD continues to take the HD world by storm,” said David Taylor, CEO of CineForm, Inc. “By combining Aspect HD with the power and quality of the BOXX editing systems, BOXX is able to provide an unprecedented level of price performance for post-production professionals.”
BOXX workstations and rendering systems deliver the performance and reliability digital content creators demand and are ideal for anything from animation, game development and CAD to DV, SD and HD. Available in single-or dual-processor configurations featuring the latest AMD Athlon and Opteron processors and Intel Pentium 4 and Xeon processors, BOXX workstations and render nodes support popular software from companies such as Adobe, Alias, Autodesk, Discreet, Newtek and Softimage.
