Warner Bros. De Lane Lea have announced that their new state-of-the-art dailies facility has opened its doors on-site at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden.
The bespoke, purpose-built facility features a 48 seat 4K screening room and a 4K VFX review theatre with Baselight and Daylight grading and dailies software. Services include on-set and on-location dailies, film scanning, and an impressive SDI dark fibre connectivity to Warner Bros. De Lane Lea’s post-production facility in Soho.
Cara Sheppard, Director of Warner Bros. De Lane Lea says:
“It’s fantastic to bring a little bit of Soho to Leavesden, and to give our clients a full end-to-end service. Our new dailies facility offers exceptional levels of service and the highest level of security to deliver time and cost efficiencies to productions. Our award-wining talent and highly-skilled technicians capture and deliver images as they were intended to be seen by the Director and Cinematographer.”
Tim Grover, Post Production Supervisor says:
“I was extremely excited to tour the new picture dailies facility and to meet the excellent team. It’s going to be a great addition to Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden and I really look forward to using the service. The dark fibre link to Warner Bros. De Lane Lea is a real bonus.”
Earlier this year Warner Bros. De Lane Lea opened its new picture services division in Soho which includes 4K HDR Baselight X grading theatres, flame online suites and a full mastering and QC department, and welcomed new talent including world-renowned Colourists Asa Shoul and Peter Doyle.
Last year the company announced it will be cementing its future in Soho by moving to the purpose-built state-of-the art Ilona Rose building in 2021 which is currently under construction.
