Pixel Farm's VFX, DI and Image Restoration products PFTrack, PFDepth and PFClean have become indispensable for special effects and digital restoration and have been integrated into the most demanding environments of video post-production, TV production, audio-visual archives, etc. while contributing to creativity and increasing productivity.
PFTrack | 3D Tracking Reinvented
PFTrack is considered a leading VFX tool, with high functionality, flexibility and accuracy for matchmoving. It uses camera tracking and image analysis technology and enables the re-creation of entire scenes with precision based on the specifications of each camera.
The material produced is ideal for further processing and easily accessible in a single work environment.
PFDepth | Picture Perfect Dimensionalisation
PFDepth including PFTrack is a "Dimensionalisation" tool that allows working in a truly 3D environment using conventional cameras.
This simple principle allows PFDepth to create highly accurate pixel-by-pixel conversions of 2D space into 3D, and by using depth-of-field information with depth maps, it allows image pairs to be processed and corrected for problems that may have arisen from the original downloading. The result is absolute control and the release of creativity. Even with a sophisticated preview environment that checks for inconsistencies before final rendering, PFDepth ensures excellent 3D results without compromise.
PFClean | Restore, Remaster, Repurpose
PFClean is ideal for film and video restoration from film digitization to remastering for audiovisual archives, TV stations and movie studios.
Fast, flexible and without destroying valuable analog material, it integrates a complete set of film and audiovisual restoration tools for creative users in an easy-to-use and friendly interface.
It also allows processing in multiple files (batch processing), media management as well as powerful remastering functionality. PFDepth is used by leading companies such as Sony, Deluxe, Technicolor, The Criterion Collection, IMAX, Pinewood Studios, the BBC as well as the national audiovisual archives of Estonia, Slovakia and Finland.
