Xtreme frame rates via SDI
ALEXA 35 Live Xtreme delivers powerful high-speed capabilities that elevate live entertainment coverage to new heights. HFR (high frame rate) outputs of up to 8x in HD or 2x in UHD allow the emotion and drama of live events to be broadcast in stunningly beautiful slow motion via standard SDI workflows, enhancing creative options for producers and directors.
Consistent image quality for high-speed shots
Since a separate high-speed camera is no longer required, the HFR content now has the same ARRI look as the regular feed, and a consistent visual style is assured across both the live coverage and highlight reels. When using ALEXA 35 Live Xtreme on a live production, everyone from the engineers and operators to shaders and directors can do their job in the normal way.
Standard SDI workflow
ALEXA 35 Live Xtreme comes permanently pre-installed with the existing High Speed License for ALEXA 35 and a new High Frame Rate SDI License. When combined with the LPS-1 Fiber Camera Adapter and Fiber Base Station—and a standard slow-motion playout server such as EVS or SimplyLive—the camera can output HFR from one or two SDI outputs, seamlessly integrating with traditional broadcast workflows.
Motion blur control
The simultaneous live feed from ALEXA 35 Live Xtreme can be customized to match other standard-speed cameras by blending two or more phases to create more natural motion blur, without impacting the HFR output in any way.
Uniquely, the ARRI system lets users choose how many phases are blended via the LPS-1 web interface, allowing them to fine-tune motion blur on a project-by-project basis. In the example below, three phases have been blended because this was the combination that best matched other standard-speed cameras shooting the scene.
