When you're James Cameron, you need to be in several places at the same time. That's why Modern Videofilm needed to figure out a way to let Cameron work on color-correcting Avatar whether he and colorist Skip Kimball were in a DI suite at Modern or sitting on the Fox Studios lot across town. To solve the problem, Modern Videofilm installed a Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve system at the Fox lot in Century City, then networked it via optical fiber to the Modern offices in Glendale, 56 miles away. Data was mirrored on local storage so that changes to the edit or color-grading that were made in one location were immediately reflected at the other. That meant Cameron and Kimball could work at full power and efficiency on the studio lot as well as at Modern. F&V got more details from Mark Smirnoff, president of studio services at Modern Videofilm.
