ClearView Pivot: Remote 4K HDR Colour Review

An Emmy Award-winning theatrical-grade reviewing platform built for storytellers. Share colour and frame-accurate footage in 4K HDR with 12-bit colour depth and 4:4:4 chroma sampling in real-time with ultra-low latency. This tool gives you the quality of review you would expect in a grading suite or screening room, but remotely.

Keeping clients connected

High-quality streaming

Image quality and colour fidelity are vital for remote colour grading or VFX reviews. ClearView Pivot offers HDR reviews in 4K at full-colour quality over our uncontended private Media Network so nothing gets lost in translation. Services over the open internet all require compression, so they simply cannot measure up.

Hassle-free software setup

Other solutions are hardware products that require a lot of time and effort – for both security teams involved in firewalling and technical assistants checking equipment before every session.

Pivot works immediately every time and as a point-to-multipoint solution you can ‘pivot’ easily from one end point to the next to collaborate with multiple people at the click of a button.

"The compromises when you used to work remotely don’t really exist anymore with technologies like Pivot that replicate very closely what you’d experience if you were office-based”
