Post production house Shooters Post & Transfer has selected the Snell & Wilcox Niagra HD noise and grain management system for its film, commercial and other projects. Because HD is more revealing and offers high resolutions, film grain and noise issues can be more significant.
The Niagra is a multifunctional noise reduction unit for SD and HD. Its interface enables users to change grain reduction depending on the film stock that they are using.
For color correction, Niagra is integrated with the da Vinci 2K.
Bob Lovejoy, colorist for Phila.-based Shooters Post & Transfer, said that Niagra gives users a very clean picture whether they're working in SD or HD.
