Application Brief: Movie and TV Industry Migration to 4K
1.
APPLICATION BRIEF Movie and
TV Industry Migration to 4K A Killer App for Gen 5 Fibre Channel SANs For the last several years, production and post-production professionals in the movie and TV industry have captured, edited and projected video in 2K resolution (2048 pixels wide by 1080 pixels vertical). The industry is now migrating to faster frame rates and higher resolution 4K video (4096 pixels wide by 2160 pixels vertical). This doubling of the horizontal resolution and vertical resolution, quadruples the amount of digital data created. The result for post-production sound and video editors is their ability to perform real-time editing is bottlenecked by the Fibre Channel SAN infrastructure deployed to support 2K video. Real time editing of a single stream of uncompressed 4K video requires more than 8Gb/s of SAN bandwidth — making 4K video editing a killer app for Gen 5 Fibre Channel SANs with 16Gb/s bandwidth.. 4K Quadruples The Amount of Digital Data An upgrade to 16Gb Fibre Channel is required to support real-time editing of 4K video. Click on the YouTube button above to hear about the transition from 2K to 4K. Document # APP2013020 v1 Copyright 2013© IT Brand Pulse. All rights reserved. Page 1 of 6

APPLICATION BRIEF Shooting in
4K Generates Massive Amounts of Data Before editing 4K sound and video, the data has to be created with a 4K camera which generates massive amounts of data. For example, Sony F65 digital cameras are capable of shooting in true 4K resolution. Given that a typical feature film includes 50-150 hours of footage, that 150 hours in 4K RAW 3D 10-bit 4K format, requires 273 terabytes of primary storage. If three copies are made, which is the practice at the Chapman University Film School, 820 terabytes of tape storage is required for backup. Acquiring Digital Data with a Sony F65 Camera Sony F65 Camera Linear Image 10-bit 12-bit 4K RAW (4096 x 2160), 24fps 16-bit Bitrate 253.125 MB/s 912 GB/hr 303.75 MB/s 1.09TB/hr 405 MB/s 1.46TB/hr The Sony F65 camera shooting 4K RAW video can generate up to 1.46 terabytes of data every hour. If a crew is shooting 12 hour per day, over 17 terabytes of data storage is needed every day! Document # APP2013020 v1 Copyright 2013© IT Brand Pulse. All rights reserved. Page 2 of 6

APPLICATION BRIEF Moving 4K
Data From Camera to Storage The source of digital data can be 35mm film cameras or digital cameras. With film cameras, the film must be scanned to convert the images to a digital format. The transition to 4K has the effect of quadrupling the amount of time it takes to scan a 35mm film. The data inside the camera is stored on a Flash memory card. The memory cards are inserted into a Digital Image Transfer (DIT) stations where the data can be routed to primary storage on SAN. At Chapman University, the link from the transfer stations was 1GbE. However Ethernet server adapters inside the transfer stations were recently upgraded to 10GbE adapters which resulted in a 4x increase in throughput from the transfer station. Chapman University Film & Digital Camera Data Flows Upgrading the Digital Image Transfer stations from 1GbE server adapters to 10GbE server adapters increased throughput by 4x. For the crew on set, this is a critical improvement to daily productivity and helps ensure there are no disruptions to the creative process. Click on the YouTube button to watch the Chapman CTO talk about DIT. Document # APP2013020 v1 Copyright 2013© IT Brand Pulse. All rights reserved. Page 3 of 6

APPLICATION BRIEF Moving 4K
Data From Storage to Theatre Once the video data is moved onto a SAN, it’s available for editing. Editing uncompressed data is the most efficient post-production process. Alternatively, the data can be compressed for off-line editing, and them un -compressed later to create the final video. However, this adds time and cost to the process. At Chapman University, each link on their 4Gb Fibre Channel SAN can support real-time editing of 2K video which requires 2.2Gb of bandwidth. However. Real-time color and sound editing of uncompressed 4K video requires an upgrade to 16Gb Fibre Channel to support a quadrupling of throughput. The Need for Gen 5 Fibre Channel Exists When Streaming Data for Real-Time 4K Editing The SAN at Chapman University must be upgraded from 4Gb to 16Gb Fibre Channel in order to support real-time color and sound editing of uncompressed 4K video data. Click on the YouTube button to watch a Chapman post-production engineer talk about 4K and SANs. Document # APP2013020 v1 Copyright 2013© IT Brand Pulse. All rights reserved. Page 4 of 6

APPLICATION BRIEF Recent Tips
from a Chapman University Post Production Engineer The following are a few of the lessons Chapman University wants to share about their SAN experience: Upgrade PCI cards in digital cameras to 10GbE to get data off Flash cards and onto the SAN faster. If your SAN is at 4Gb, skip 8Gb and go right to 16Gb. You’ll need the bandwidth for 4K video editing. Build in the bandwidth needed for real-time editing. Otherwise you will spend time rebuilding video that was compressed and edited offline. Pay me now or pay me later.
