At CineForm we share a passion for participating in film and video creation -- not only as our vocation, but also as our avocation.  We strive to offer products with innovative digital workflow features that enhance the process of making movie and television content. The result of our efforts is that CineForm products are used by the biggest film studios, post production facilities, and archive centers in the world.  Our start in 2001 began by delivering the first affordable HD editorial products for independent filmmakers and enthusiasts, a market we continue to lead today.

But leadership isn't just about making declarations, it's about demonstrated success:

In 2003 CineForm shipped the industry's first product supporting HDV editing - Aspect HD - in support of JVC's original HD10U HDV camcorder.  In fact, Aspect HD was the only HDV editing product for about a year.   

In 2004 CineForm's Prospect HD became the first 10-bit online compression product used on a theatrically released feature film that was printed back to 35mm from the compressed source - Dana Brown's Dust To Glory.

In 2006 CineForm shipped the first Raw compression format for single-sensor Raw cameras - CineForm RAW - on which patents are pending.

Also in 2006, Microsoft selected CineForm files for its long-term archive for all Xbox Live television and movie content.  Today Microsoft has 1500 Terabytes of spinning storage for CineForm files that serve its Xbox Live distribution infrastructure.

In 2007 CineForm introduced the first 12-bit RGB compression format - CineForm 444 - compatible on both Windows and Mac, and with measured peak signal-to-noise-ratio (PSNR) performance that exceeds the respected HDCAM SR tape format which became a mainstay in high-end feature film and post production.

In 2008 CineFom introduced Prospect 4K and Neo 4K for Windows and Mac - the first online 4K editorial products that eliminated the need for project conforming.

So far 2009 has been a good year for CineForm.

• CineForm RAW was revealed as the digital acquisition format on 2009's runaway Oscar winner Slumdog Millionaire. Not only did Slumdog win Best Picture and Best Director (Danny Boyle), but also Best Cinematography (Anthony Dod Mantle).  We're especially proud of the latter as CineForm technologies contributed to the camera design (Silicon Imaging's SI-2K) and the resulting desirable characteristics that helped win this prestigious award.

• CineForm began shipping the industry's first product that offers a real-time editorial workflow in Final Cut Pro for 3D film projects - Neo3D - enabling full-resolution Left and Right eye streams stored in a single file plus adjustment of stereo convergence and color.
