2.13 Panalog and GDP
The Genesis camera signal is transformed by a Panalog transfer
curve designed by Panavision to maximize the latitude of the image
for subsequent film or video finish. Simply put, the Panalog
allocates more steps in the darks where the human eye is more
discriminating, and fewer in the whites. Panalog also preserves
Genesis’ wide color gamut, a color space that is close to that of film.
Because of its wide latitude, the Panalog video output will not be
properly displayed on a video monitor. The image may look washed
out and underexposed. Some cinematographers simply adjust the
brightness and contrast of their monitors to get a rough feel for the
final image. However the Panavision GDP (Genesis Display
Processor) offers a much better solution by applying a precise
Viewing LUT (Color look-up table) to the signal for viewing on video
monitors on the set or in dailies. This LUT correction can also be
applied to the images going to the edit room.
2.14 Pre-visualizing
One of the benefits of shooting Genesis is that the footage does not
require scanning for DI (digital intermediate) like film does.
Panavision strongly recommends that the cinematographer work
closely with the post-production house at the outset of production
to define the post workflow. Some DPs use Viewing LUTs defined by
post houses and loaded into the Panavision GDP to pre-visualize the
look of the release print on the set, and in HD projection of dailies.
