TM Systems has introduced a new spin off of its' acclaimed DubStation,
for use in the ADR environment for the domestic and international
professional audio market. Developer of the Emmy Award winning digital,
nonlinear tools for dubbing and subtitling motion pictures and television
programs, the company's latest DubStation II incorporates all of
the features of the original DubStation.
While all the features that have been used for more than three
years by leading dubbing facilities in the US and foreign markets
are incorporated in the latest version, the improved version also
provides full screen video displays for LCD, Plasma and all projection
systems available today.
According to TM Systems president, Ken Lorber, "It became
obvious shortly after introducing the DubStation to the Los Angeles
professional marketplace, that many of the features used in language
dubbing have direct application for the ADR process, used so heavily
in the posting of films and television programs."
"What had been lacking for the ADR process was the ability
to project full screen composite video combined with accompanying
text. That upgrade was the basis of the spin off of the DubStation
II. The new release now provides that feature and continues to offer
the only integrated picture and text imaging available in the industry,"
he added.
Good news is that actors, with help of this technology, will no
longer need to shift focus between paper scripts and projected images.
The dialogue is configured directly below and on the same focal
plane as the film or video. Dialogue can be accessed instantaneously,
with no need to input time codes. Creation of a character dialogue
list, in pre-production, automatically enables lines or "loops"
to be accessed sequentially and repeated infinitely in session,
says the release.
The DubStation II has all the same features that were recognized
by the Television Academy of Arts and Sciences in their award of
an Emmy for Technical Excellence to TM Systems in 2002, the company's
first year of operation, adds the release.
