Wave & Filmmaking
There was more activity in Wave around filmmaking. Jonathan Poritsky wrote a post back in June outlining his thoughts on how Wave could streamline the movie-making process - specifically, post production workflows. He’s now made put that post into a wave called ‘Google Wave for Filmmakers: Wave Edition.’
The following chart depicts how Poritsky conceptually sees Wave being used in filmmaking. In a nutshell, all of the participants in the filmmaking process would use Wave to collaborate. In Poritsky’s words, “every job and step passes through the wave.”
Poritsky admits that “not all of this is possible yet,” because it requires faster computers and network technology to process such large video files in real-time. However he says that “the basic precepts of digital editing could actually be done over a network today.”
This type of collaborative communication is the promise of Google Wave. Filmmaking groups need to be on the same page, and Wave is the closest thing we have got. I’m glad it’s here.
