What's a CineForm File?
Aside from DNxHR and Apple ProRes, CineForm is a digital intermediate codec that is used in all GoPro Studio workflow and is one of the best formats in the post-production industry. CineForm is widely for independent filmmakers and Hollywood studios.
The first step in any GoPro Studio workflow is to convert your source files into GoPro CineForm format. This is very important and there are several reasons for this. All consumer cameras and many professional-grade cameras are recorded in highly compressed video formats for fast capture of large amounts of data and saving them to a file as small size as possible. But for maintaining image quality during editing and color correction, these compression methods are not suitable, and haven't optimized for post production editing. Compared to recorded files on camera, the GoPro CineForm files are more suitable for editing and compositing. With the development of 4K and even higher, GoPro CineForm is fully compatible with 4K resolution. CineForm now is supported by main NLE video editor like Adobe Premiere, Adobe After Effects, Davinci Resolve, etc.
GoPro CineForm has the following advantages:
- Real-time Preview. Delivers extremely fast performance on Intel-based CPUs, allowing multiple streams to be processed in real time without the need for specialized hardware. The primary color correction in GoPro Studio can be activated in the editing or grading software. No need to render
- Excellent quality control. Provides the same visual quality as an uncompressed workflow. A file will maintain its original quality even after encoded for several times by GoPro CineForm.
- Good cost control. GoPro CineForm files have a smaller file size and reduce the cost of data management.
- There is no limit to the resolution. Support for 4K and above, as well as non-standard resolution.
- It could be wrapped in MOV and AVI format to ensure wide versatility.
