When assigning a switcher gateway to the production (in the configuration settings), all
the information about cameras and director's cut points is automatically retrieved from the
switcher output. It can be then integrated in the EDL for the post-production team. For a
complete information about the EVS switcher gateway, refer to the DC-100 – Technical
Reference Manual.
Director's Cut can work in a connected/shared environment, or not. The destination
targets can be directly available for the post-production operators through network
connections, or can be transportable storage devices. When the production and post-
production entities are connected, as shown on the diagram, all the scenes and takes are
directly sent to the targets as growing clips as soon as the record starts. This makes it
possible for the editor to start working even if the show is not over. When the production
and post-production entities are not connected, all the scenes and takes are streamed to
removable hard disks with the director’s cut EDL. The disks are then transported to the
post-production facility and ingested there.
