Data Management Systems

Data on Italian shoots runs through a tight network of DIT labs and rental partners. We use Cinecittà DI for feature work, Lumiq Studios Turin for high-end commercial and series jobs, and EM srl plus Panalight for on-set DIT carts and storage hardware. Our team sizes each station to your camera package, supporting ARRIRAW, ProRes, RED R3D, Sony X-OCN, Blackmagic BRAW and Canon Cinema RAW from one workflow file. Italian DITs working under CCNL Cinema Audiovisivo crewing rules handle triple-redundant offload, checksum checks at each stage, and on-set color with LUT application and CDL generation. All of this feeds straight into the post houses local shoots actually use: FrameByFrame, Edi, Proxima, Post Atomic and Mercurio.

GDPR compliance shapes everything that touches identifiable material. A chain-of-custody record travels with each drive, transfer logs are stamped and counter-signed at handoff, and cloud backup options route through EU-resident setups when production legal needs that in writing. Dailies transcoding scales with multi-camera work on Mediaset stage shoots, Rai studio blocks, and Sky Italia series. Our high-speed RAID arrays handle parallel offload and deliver same-day dailies to Rome or Milan post houses.

LTO archive creation closes out the schedule with detailed metadata, shot reports and retrieval records that survive format migration cycles. When a unit shoots across Cinecittà, Lumiq and a Tuscany exterior in one week, our coordinator runs secure transport between sites and the encrypted handoff to post that producers expect under MiC 40% Italian Cinema Plan reporting.

The DIT gear we supply in Italy is matched to your camera package. We set up carts with RAID arrays, checksum tools, and high-speed transfer drives. One workflow file handles ARRIRAW, ProRes, RED R3D, Sony X-OCN, BRAW, and Canon RAW. On-set color covers LUT and CDL work for steady dailies. Each station is sized to your data volume up front, so multi-camera days never outrun the offload speed.

Our rental-house network keeps DIT carts and storage close to set. Stock sits in Rome, Milan, and Turin, with quick links to Tuscany and wider bases. High-speed RAID arrays deliver same-day dailies to local post houses. A chain-of-custody record travels with each drive, stamped at handoff. Drives that hold one offload never travel together, so one transit problem can never put your camera originals at risk.

Italian DITs work the offload, the checks, and the secure handoff to post. They run triple-redundant backups with a checksum step at each stage. A unit may shoot a stage and a Tuscany exterior in one week. When it does, our coordinator manages secure transport between sites. LTO archive work closes the schedule with metadata, shot reports, and retrieval records. Cloud backup can route through EU-resident setups when your legal team needs that in writing.
