MEDIA, METADATA, NOTES, AND APPROVALS.
ALL IN ONE PLACE.

Crew members can provide feedback directly within the QTAKE project, referencing both live and recorded shots, updating pre-built or custom metadata, and adding notes or drawings addressing clips or specific frame ranges.

By attaching all information to respective assets, the project becomes a central hub for production and postproduction information, keeping workflows organized and avoiding orphaned notes.

If paper-based output is required, users can generate personalized PDF reports for selected items, providing a clear, shareable summary of notes, metadata, and decisions. This structured, contextual collaboration helps teams make effective decisions with full awareness of every detail.

When necessary, you can work offline and
automatically synchronize as soon as internet connection is available.

DUAL POWER PLAY

QTAKE Sync is operated through two complementary applications, each designed for a specific role on set. The QTAKE Monitor application is dedicated for end users across departments, while the QTAKE Sync application handles project administration. In addition, the QTAKE Sync application can also be used without a paid license for uploading assets only, making it suitable for units or crew members who need to contribute media without accessing review or annotation tools.

QTAKE MONITOR APPLICATION

THE ONE APP TO RULE THEM ALL

QTAKE Monitor is the primary end-user application which combines wireless multi-camera monitoring, personal video playback, and collaborative metadata editing in a single app. It represents a true paper-less alternative to note-taking for any department, keeping all data accessible, organized and attached to multi-media assets.

QTAKE Sync reframe

From script coverage and previz to dailies export and PDF reports, the QTAKE ecosystem handles on-set tasks effortlessly – eliminating redundant data entry through real-time synchronization across all devices. Remember when ACs, script supervisors, and VFX teams had to manually enter lens info? Now we pull it straight from the camera feed and share it instantly, so any crew member can drop it right into their reports!

QTAKE Monitor scales easily from small productions to large, multi-unit shows. It delivers full functionality on a local network and extends seamlessly to cloud-based workflows for remote access. When leaving the set, devices automatically reconnect to the cloud project to stay in sync.

IMMERSIVE VIDEO PRODUCTION

From Narnia to Avatar, QTAKE has been a key tool in stereoscopic productions, providing live ultra-low-latency 3D monitoring, instant playback, and on-set 3D editing. With the introduction of Apple Vision Pro and the Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive camera, support has been extended to immersive productions, including ILPD (Apple Immersive Lens Processing Data).

QTAKE Monitor on all devices

With QTAKE Sync, immersive and 3D VR content can be produced with efficiency comparable to traditional 2D workflows. QTAKE Monitor for Apple Vision Pro supports both immersive and standard 3D cinema formats, enabling interactive workflows without waiting for renders or exports.

QTAKE Monitor on all devices

FITS ALL SCREEN SIZES

QTAKE Monitor adapts to a wide range of on-set and remote use cases. Whether used on a wrist-mounted iPhone, an iPad at video village, a Mac on set, an Apple TV in an office, or Apple Vision Pro. The experience stays perfectly consistent across all devices.

SET IT AND FORGET IT

Even small productions with no budget for extra staff can streamline workflows using QTAKE Sync. After initial project setup, zero-maintenance automation takes over. Need to tweak settings? Most admin controls are also available in QTAKE Monitor.

LICENSE-FREE MODE

In addition to licensed operation, the QTAKE Sync application can also be used without a paid license for asset uploads only. This allows additional units or crew members to contribute media to a project without accessing playback, review, or annotation tools – sufficient for many one-directional workflows.

WORKFLOWS

QTAKE Sync adapts to any production setup. Whether your team is working locally, remotely, or in a hybrid environment, it keeps everyone connected to the same project, media, and metadata in real time. Built to perform both offline and online, it ensures uninterrupted collaboration and instant access wherever production takes place.

SINGLE UNIT PRODUCTION

QTAKE Sync runs on a local network to provide instant access to recorded clips, extending the capabilities of traditional video assist or DIT. Instead of crowding around monitors, authorized users can view up to 9 video channels directly on their personal devices.

Each crew member can reference the live signal alongside the latest take or independently review any clip, while video village displays a synchronized feed for group viewing. Notes can be kept private or shared across departments, and custom PDF reports with thumbnails and selected notes can be generated in just a few clicks.

REMOTE ACCESS

Experience a true remote video village through native integration with QTAKE Cloud. QTAKE Sync offers the same powerful features to remote team members as if they were right on set. Producers, clients, showrunners, editorial or off-set crew use recorded clips and edit metadata just seconds after capture.

Limited internet connectivity is never an issue, as QTAKE Sync works fully offline and automatically synchronizes all changes once the connection is restored, ensuring no work and updates are ever lost.

MULTI UNIT PRODUCTION

QTAKE Sync streamlines collaboration across multiple shooting units, whether they’re on opposite sides of the lot or on different continents. As soon as one unit captures a new take, it becomes instantly available to the others, with all media and metadata kept perfectly synchronized.

Directors can review footage from another unit, and their notes are shared back just as quickly. Postproduction can also run its own QTAKE Sync instance to receive media and notes in real time and send edited or graded results back through the same seamless workflow.

NO VIDEO VILLAGE?

In case there is no video assist present, production can automatically record camera output using a tiny ScreenPort device to provide the same collaborative experience with personal playback instantly available.

For all other assets, such as transcoded clips from DIT or 3rd party recorded clips, QTAKE Sync provides watch folders for automatic ingest. Using custom filename parsing all imported assets can instantly get basic metadata essential for navigation within the project.

SECURITY IS KEY

The power to instantly share pre-release content comes with the responsibility to protect it.
QTAKE ecosystem is equipped with the most complete security feature set ever found in a collaboration tool.

TWO FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

In addition to complex password requirements set according to MPA guidelines, QTAKE provides a built-in TFA system with authorized devices used as hardware tokens.

SINGLE SIGN-ON VIA SAML

Large-scale productions and studios who prefer to use their own user authentication and identity management system can use our SSO integration with SAML 2.0 compatible identity providers.

END-TO-END ENCRYPTION

QTAKE is streaming only to authenticated and authorized clients and uses true end-to-end encryption to provide protection against man-in-the-middle attacks.

SCREENSHOT PROTECTION

Using DRM-like content protection on the system level, only approved crew members are able to create screenshots or screen-recordings on their monitoring devices.

VISIBLE WATERMARK

QTAKE offers a system-wide watermark with custom size, position, and transparency level for visible identification of the pre-release content and authorized user.

INVISIBLE WATERMARK

In case visible watermarking is not an option, productions can use the latest forensic watermarking technology from NAGRA, available in both live stream and playback.

SECURITY ASSESSMENT

All applications inside QTAKE ecosystem are audited on a regular basis by Independent Security Evaluators to comply with the latest standards in content protection.

USER ACCESS CONTROL

Rich set of permissions grouped in customizable user roles offers fine-grained access control to media and metadata in order to streamline the collaboration workflow.
