Light Iron announces today that its iPad-based LiVE PLAY mobile
playback application is now available worldwide on Apple’s iTunes store
for $34.99.
LiVE PLAY is an automated and interactive playback system that
enables users to review takes from the set—often seconds after the
director calls “cut”—and add comments via multiple iPads. Fully
wireless, fully secure and fully customizable, LiVE PLAY offers an
entirely new level of collaboration amongst principals on set,
furthering creative and technical communication between the production,
visual effects department, the studio, and the editorial team. LiVE
PLAY's powerful tools include instant HD playback, database creation,
and metadata management, all without relying on an Internet connection.
The system works with virtually unlimited iPad users.
Light Iron has already received fantastic feedback from directors
and producers who have used the company’s LiVE PLAY and mobile dailies
applications via its beta testing program. According to
Light Iron CEO Michael Cioni, several directors contributed to the
application design. “With iPad popularity on the rise, LiVE
PLAY is an ideal way for creative’s to have access to their content
while on set using their own tools,” says Cioni. “The
response has been overwhelming.” Light Iron’s iPad clients include
Paramount Pictures, Walt Disney Studios, Lakeshore Entertainment,
Columbia Pictures, and NBC Universal.
