KIMBRO VIDEO - VIDEO ASSIST TECHNICIAN

Welcome to Kimbro Video!

I am a QTake HD Owner and operator with over 25 years of experience as a Video Assist Technician. I work on TV commercials, online content creation, TV promos - short form stuff! I work all over the Southeast - from Atlanta to Nashville, Birmingham to Knoxville.

What is Video Assist?

What is QTake?

Video Assist Techs will record proxy footage from any of the professional HD cameras to be available for instant playback on set. Video Assist typically handles video distribution on monitors throughout the set and to different departments. I make sure everyone views what they need to see!

Are You a DIT?

Sorry but no. DIT's will download and transcode master footage from the camera. Many DIT's can also provide "looks" for the video footage on set by digitally coloring the image. Video Assist and DIT's work closely together with the rest of the Camera team.

What About Streaming?

YES! QTake software allows me to stream high-resolution video and audio to Client devices anywhere in the world at very low latency (6 frames or less). I can also stream video and audio through virtually any video conferencing application. See my Services page for more info!

QTAKE is an advanced software application designed and developed for video assist professionals. It is used to log, capture, playback, edit and process video output of any camera.
QTAKE is the preferred tool of the most wanted video operators around the globe. It is updated on a monthly basis using valuable input from real production environment to bring you the best in Digital Video Assist. -in2core

How does it Work?

QTAKE uses video hardware from AJA, BMD and Deltacast to capture Standard or High Definition video, audio and timecode information. Each clip is captured to a high speed media storage and can be retrieved instantly for playback, editing or compositing. Using extensive meta-data, QTAKE improves project workflow far beyond regular video assist.
By utilizing the GPU power of modern advanced graphics cards, QTAKE is able to perform intensive image processing in realtime. This includes live composite with realtime keying capabilities.
