World renowned for their broadcast products, Ultimatte have produced a keyer aimed at the DV market. With connectivity for composite, svideo and firewire signals for foreground, background and composite output, Ultimatte DV provides the solution to many users searching for a cost effective tool for live production.

Logical and simple to operate, Ultimatte DV offers the user unrivalled control over the matte parameters. Via a single monitor connection, the operator can quickly compare the input, the matte and the composite output. Internally generated test signals ensure the highest quality output is maintained. An internal frame store allows non synchronous signals to be combined (a big advantage as many DV cameras do not have genlock) and also enables the user to store a background frame in memory. The unit will also function as a transcoder enabling the user to convert between video formats. On location it can be used as a pre-visualisation tool, enabling the director and crew to evaluate the final composite, rather than seeing just the camera feed on a preview monitor.

Combined with Reflecmedia's products, Ultimatte DV provides the perfect chromakey solution for independent production companies, education users and budget conscious programme makers.

When a presenter features within a chroma key production this often necessitates the use of teleprompting - providing a continuous scrolling prompt of the programme script. Teleprompting is an important and well established tool used in television, video and live event production.

The ability to provide presenters with a scrolling continuous prompt is often an essential element of live news, sport and entertainment programming - where the volume and content of the information is impossible to remember. In these same areas of programming producers are making increased use of chroma key and virtual set techniques - allowing for greater creativity in programme backdrops and digital video effects.

The emergence of Chromatte, created the need to use the camera mounted LiteRing required for Chromatte, together with a teleprompting device. Autoscript provides a complete range of LCD teleprompters, PC cards and software that support a variety of uses, whether for professional broadcast environments, or educational and corporate settings. With intuitive software and clearer pictures, Autoscript products are a favourite of production and IT departments and, the talent.

Each Autoscript comes complete with:

• 15" TFT ELP Screen
  
• Standard Hood with EXTR, Glass & Light Shield
  
• Mounting Plate
  
• Winplus VGA Software including USB Dongle & Desk Control

ChromaFlex provides all the benefits of Reflecmedia's revolutionary Chromatte fabric in the most portable form.

The 2.1m square (7 sq.') collapsible screen weighs just 5kg and packs away into a 90cm (36") diameter bag. With no additional fittings required, ChromaFlex is opened and ready to use in seconds. The surface area of the screen allows sufficient space to shoot from close-up to a wide shot of good proportion.

When you purchase ChromaFlex you choose a LiteRing Kit to suit your application - depending on camera size and your preferred keying colour. You can add additional LiteRings at any time to increase the products flexibility.

Whether you are an experienced professional or are shooting chroma key for the first time, you will benefit from the ease of ChromaFlex and the greater time it allows for creativity.

Leading industry associations and publishers have judged ChromaFlex a 'must have' accessory for all videographers, cameramen, production companies and news crews. America's National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) honoured the product with an 'Award for Innovation in Media' at their 2003 convention in Las Vegas.

ChromaFlex EL is a 1.4m x 1m (4’ x 3’) Chromatte collapsible screen made from the same Chromatte fabric as ChromaFlex and is supplied with LiteRing components in one bag. It offers a cost-effective Entry Level solution for mid shots and head and shoulder shots and is the perfect introduction to Chromatte production.

Chromatte is a fabric designed specifically for use as a background for chroma key production. Unlike conventional chroma key fabrics that are usually blue or green in colour, Chromatte is grey to the eye in ambient light. The fabric contains millions of tiny glass beads that act as reflectors, returning any light shone on them back to it's source.

By generating the background colour through a retro-reflective process Chromatte offers unrivalled benefits;

Lighting
The only light required to light Chromatte comes from the LiteRing.

Ease of use
Quick, simple, effective and achieves consistent results.

Portability
Reflecmedia's ChromaFlex takes the Chroma key shoot out of the studio.

Adaptability
Chromatte drapes and panels can be custom manufactured to fit almost any environments.

Flexibility
Reflecmedia's LiteRing colour determines whether the production is shot against blue screen or green screen. Should circumstances change and the alternative colour be required, the LiteRing can simply be exchanged. No need to repaint or relight.

Space
Chromatte can be installed into the largest of studios or the smallest office. There is no 'spill' in a Chromatte installation.

Time
Unlike conventional Chroma key installations, a Chromatte installation takes very little time, therefore allowing extra time to concentrate on lighting and composing the scene.

Chromatte is supplied in a range of standard size or custom produced studio drapes, where the fabric is backed with a black light-proof drape and hemmed with eyelets across the top for easy hanging from studio tracking or rail.

Standard Studio Drape Sizes
Desk Shoot 2.5m x 2.5m (8' x 8')
Small Studio 4.0m x 3.0m (12' x 10')
