REVIEW
Avid Media Composer 6.5
By Brady Betzel
This Month In
The new TNT reality series Boston's Finest follows policemen
and women, on the job and at home. It's produced by Jarrett
Creative and Donnie Wahlberg's Donnie D. Productions. Over
4,000 hours of footage was shot — predominantly on Canon
EOS C300s in 50MB 4:2:2 23.98fps — for eight one-hour
episodes. It was cut, at PostWorks NY (http://pwny.slatemediagroup.com), in an all-Avid environment: Media Composer V.6 on
Mac with ISIS 5000 shared storage. PostWorks colorist Eli
Friedman did the final color using Assimilate's Scratch.
