Post Production Equipment

Partners in Motion continues to invest in state-of-the-art production equipment to satisfy their clients' needs and stay competitive within the film and video community. It is that commitment that has lead Partners in Motion to install an Avid Unity system in our brand new post-production facility. The Avid Unity system provides the following key benefits to our multiple Avid Adrenaline suites:

  • Enables improved workflow efficiency through true simultaneous sharing of media assets, right down to the file level
  • Supports collaborative HD workflows using uncompressed HD media and high-efficiency Avid DNxHD encoded media
  • Huge expandable storage capacity of 8TB with MEDIArray™ XT storage
  • Supports a mix of real-time clients: Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Macintosh® OS X applications via Fibre Channel or via Gigabit Ethernet
Partners strives to complete the highest quality productions in the shortest time possible. With a full compliment of dedicated, professional staff, Partners can provide all services from beginning to end, in house. Our duplication centre allows us to complete large tape duplications for clients quickly and efficiently. A Samsung Multiplayer allows us to provide VHS dubs in all major formats such as NTSC, PAL, and SECAM. Partners in Motion also provides professional DVD authoring services using Apple's DVD Studio Pro software.
