SYNTHETIC APERTURE'S COLOR FINESSE NOW SUPPPORTED BY GAMMA & DENSITY'S 3CP ON-SET COLOR SYSTEM

On-set Color "Look" Data Flows Through to Post Production for Consistent Color

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA — June 23, 2006 — Today Synthetic Aperture and Gamma & Density Co. announced that the on-set Cinematographer's Color Correction Program, or 3cP, will directly support the Color Finesse post-production color correction system. The combination will be shown this week at Cine Gear Expo 2006 in Los Angeles.

"Post houses that have chosen Color Finesse now have access to the color correction metadata created on-set by 3cP," said Robert Currier, President, Synthetic Aperture. "And productions wanting to use the on-set color visualization capabilities of 3cP now have access to the power of Color Finesse."

All of the color "look" information generated by 3cP during production flows smoothly to Color Finesse without the need to manually re-create the color correction, saving time and money while preserving the original artistic vision.

"We're dedicated to making 3cP integrate smoothly into all post-production workflows. Color Finesse joins the ranks of the many other color correctors we support, which now includes Scratch, Final Touch, and Pogle, as well as devices such as LUTher and Cinemage," said Yuri Neyman, President and co-founder of Gamma & Density.
