Short Takes: Mark Toia Edits in HDR for SDR Deliverables

“Director and DOP Mark Toia flew to Africa to shoot on the RED cameras a stunning set of visuals that Apple showed during the event. The raw footage is for a documentary Apple wanted to use as a test case for the new FCP pipeline. Toia is a highly successful filmmaker who does vast big budget projects and TV commercials all of the world. On his elaborate shoots, it is not uncommon for Toia to shoot with 5 RED cameras simultaneously and combine this with multiple audio recordings. Toia is leading film maker who prefers to edit his work in HDR, even if the final deliverable is a SDR master.”
