Great to take a day out to catch up with a very dear friend of mine on the golf course. Blue skies, great company shame about my golf!

Don’t overlook the benefits though of just getting out and active in the fresh (and it was fresh!) air to recharge and reflect away from the business and day-to-day stresses we all encounter.

If you’d like to join me on the golf course this year please do reach out and we’ll get a date in the diary!

Today we announced Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive is now available to pre-order direct from Blackmagic Design offices worldwide for US$29,995. Delivery will start in late Q1 2025. This will let us work with initial customers to develop the post production pipeline with DaVinci Resolve and then Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive will be available via Blackmagic Design resellers worldwide, which we expect to be later in the year.

We are excited to begin accepting orders for Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive, which is the world’s first commercial camera system designed to capture content for Apple Vision Pro and preview a true end-to-end workflow for Apple Immersive Video and DaVinci Resolve. An updated version of DaVinci Resolve Studio with new editing features for Apple Immersive Video will also be released early next year. As this workflow is very new, we are looking forward to working closely with initial URSA Cine Immersive filmmakers and production companies to refine the production workflow for Apple Immersive Video before releasing URSA Cine Immersive to a wider audience in 2025.

Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive features a fixed, custom lens system pre-installed on the body and dual 8K sensors for stereoscopic 3D immersive image capture, which are designed specifically to capture Apple Immersive Video for Apple Vision Pro. The sensor delivers high resolution per eye with an incredible 16 stops of dynamic range, so cinematographers can shoot 90 fps 3D immersive cinema content to a single Blackmagic RAW file. The custom lens system is designed for URSA Cine’s large format image sensor with extremely accurate positional data that’s read and stored at time of manufacturing. This immersive lens data is mapped, calibrated and stored per eye, so it can then travel through post production in the Blackmagic RAW file itself.

The new DaVinci Resolve Studio supporting immersive video will complete the workflow so filmmakers edit, color grade, and produce Apple Immersive Video shot on the URSA Cine Immersive camera for Apple Vision Pro. Key features include a new immersive video viewer, which will let editors pan, tilt, and roll clips for viewing on 2D monitors, or on Apple Vision Pro for an even more immersive editing experience. Additionally, transitions rendered by Apple Vision Pro will also be able to be bypassed using XML metadata, giving editors clean master files. To complete the workflow, export presets will enable quick output into a package which can be viewed directly on Apple Vision Pro.

Great news! What a piece of software. The team at Blackmagic Design continue to knock the development process out of the park. Can’t wait to get this downloaded.

Today we announced that the final release of DaVinci Resolve 19 is now available.

DaVinci Resolve 19 is a major new update which adds new DaVinci Neural Engine AI tools, over 100 feature upgrades such as IntelliTrack AI, Ultra NR noise reduction, ColorSlice six vector grading, film look creator FX and multi source editing on the cut page. For Fusion there are new USD tools and multipoly rotoscoping tools, plus Fairlight has new Fairlight AI audio panning to video, ducker track FX and ambisonic surround sound. Blackmagic Cloud has new features that make it easy to use for large companies with multiple users collaborating on the same project at the same time. There’s also support for DaVinci Resolve Replay so you can create live action replays straight to air during live events and convert those replays into promos, highlight packages and instant social media updates.

With this update, editors can work directly with transcribed audio to find speakers and edit timeline clips. Colorists can produce rich film like tones with the ColorSlice six vector palette and produce cinematic images using the new film look creator effect which emulates photometric film processes. In Fairlight, the IntelliTrack AI can be used to track motion and automatically pan audio. VFX artists in Fusion have an expanded set of USD tools plus a new multipoly rotoscoping tool which displays all of your masks in a single list. The cut page has new broadcast replay tools for live multi camera broadcast editing, playout and replay with speed control. There’s also support for live sync with Blackmagic Cloud which uploads media into a DaVinci Resolve bin while the camera is recording so editors and colorists can start working even while the camera is rolling.

We would like to thank all of the customers that participated in the beta program, tested the software in a variety of workflows, reported bugs and helped to make DaVinci Resolve 19 even more reliable.
