THE TECH BEHIND THE PLATE

Introducing the fastest purpose-built array vehicle in the world. Accompanied by the Industry Standard HELIX Stabilization Head, the Stingray360 is the most advanced array vehicle in existence. Every detail has been leveraged for delivering the most sophisticated 360 degree capture possible, and our in-vehicle processing systems save days from valuable post resources. The Stingray360 is an ultra low-profile C8 Corvette Stingray, and it allows our centrally located nine [to sixteen] camera array to travel such that both driver and chassis disappear from frame. The ASCEND Stingray360 boasts 500+ horsepower, and it will keep up with even the most demanding stunt sequences. Our custom Array will live on our proprietary HELIX Stabilized Head, and we will capture ALL of the action in a single pass!

The Stingray360 offers a Live-Stitch for live transmission and real-time viewing of how your arrays will stitch together. This layer of recording not only helps with understanding coverage/overlap, but it also provides our VFX teams with essential information which will allow them to choose select immediately instead of having to wait several days for expensive stitch processing. No more waiting around. Add our Bonded Cellular System, and share real-time viewing with anyone in the world (via password encryption on a dedicated and secure webpage).

In addition to the RAW footage delivered to the Loader at the end of each day, ASCEND will also provide a series of two H.264 proxy recordings for immediate usage and director selections. We will deliver a package of Live-Stitch recordings (for each individual pass) as well as H.264’s of each individual camera’s pass. These recordings will be handed off to the VFX Wrangler at the end of each day, and they will allow our VFX teams to immediately begin choosing selects and hero cameras, shaving days off their traditional workflow.

ASCEND is a partner to VFX Teams, and we are constantly innovating new ways to help you deliver efficiently and effectively.
