EPS Announces Partnership With Digital Acquisition Service Provider The Zipline

A leader in editorial equipment and services for feature film and television production, Electric Picture Solutions (EPS) has entered into a technology and service partnership with The Zipline to provide a first of its kind mobile digital laboratory and editorial equipment package.

Los Angeles, CA -- Film & television productions shooting digitally will now have a revolutionary suite of services that allows for the most efficient and cost effective workflow.   EPS and The Zipline now offer a coordinated package pioneering a direct line from camera to editorial with archiving and finishing services combined.

With a majority of new television productions adopting a digital workflow and a trending feature film contingent, the demand for an all-digital, secure and automated solution finally has a service that brings unequalled time and cost savings.

“Our clients continue to ask us to provide solutions that take advantage of an increasingly sophisticated digital process.” says David Pincus, CEO of EPS.  “Directly connecting the camera with editorial is a significant step in the pursuit of production efficiencies.”

Patrick Ready, CEO of The Zipline and former COO of Pivotal Post agrees.  “The digital acquisition creates previously unheard of efficiencies.  The connection with EPS allows our clients to have immediate access to their footage for review, editorial and archival purposes.”

This offering is available to any acquisition platform, editorial application or finishing format and can be provided as a portable service to accommodate location production.
