Samsung is showcasing its display technology prowess through a new collaboration with Amazon that revolves around its latest addition to its entertainment business portfolio: Culver Post. The latter is a state-of-the-art theatrical post-production studio located in Los Angeles.
Samsung says it has partnered with 424 Post and Harbor to provide advanced display technologies for Amazon's post-production studio. As a result, Culver Post takes advantage of a 34-foot 8K Samsung The Wall LED (IWA-series) display and DCI-certified 4K Samsung Onyx LED displays.
The right equipment for the job
Culver Post is a full-service post-production studio that should bring unparalleled HDR and SDR mastering capabilities. It offers five stages of theatrical color grading and sound mixing. The first and second stages are outfitted with the Samsung 8K IWA-series The Wall and Onyx LEDs, respectively.
Although both solutions are based on LED technology, The Wall (IWA series) is ideal for both HDR and SDR color grading, whereas Onyx is a cinema LED display ideal for HDR color grading and mastering.
Onyx is the world's first DCI-certified cinema LED display, and over the past few years, it was adopted by dozens of theaters in more than 120 countries. In January, it finally arrived in Germany for the first time and debuted at the Lamm-Lichtspiele cinema arthouse cinema in Erlangen.
As for Amazon's Culver Post in Los Angeles, Samsung's LED solutions ensure that filmmakers and creators can have the best editing and viewing experience. Each Culver Post stage also features Meyer Sound Ultra Reflex sound systems with Dolby Atmos. In addition, each stage has enough room for roughly 50 guests, including cinematographers, colorists, and editors.
These technologies combined allow entire production teams to experience a cinematic working environment and bring the spirit of collaboration to mastering and post-production.
