Protake brings the filmmaking experience of professional cinema cameras to your mobile devices. No matter you're a daily vlogger, a commercial director, or a well-established filmmaker, you will benefit from Protake's features, including: # [NEW] WI-FI VIDEO TRANSMISSION . In the landscape orientation of AUTO and PRO modes, you can start the brand new Wi-Fi Video Transmission system. . You can transmit the video from 1 "camera" to 4 "monitors" (yes, we're talking about iPhones and iPads). . You can watch up to 4 "cameras" on 1 "monitor". . You can wirelessly start and stop the recording of all "cameras". . You can even monitor HDR and SDR video streams on the same screen. . It's a ground-breaking end-to-end mobile recording and monitoring experience. . It's brought to you by Protake. # MODES . AUTO mode: a mode optimized for vloggers and YouTubers, you can use it single-handedly. . PRO mode: a mode designed for professional filmmakers. All the camera information and control settings are well aligned on the screen. . DUAL mode: recording video with two cameras working at the same time. Recorded in one file as Picture in Picture or two files. . PORTRAIT mode: with iPhone Pro and iPad Pro's LiDAR sensor and the devices' powerful processors, you can record "portrait mode video" with real-time blurred background. # COLOR . LOG: it's not only a genuine LOG gamma curve -- we strictly matched your mobile device's color to the industrial standard - ALEXA Log C. . Cinematic Looks: we provided a dozen of cinematic looks for filmmakers -- the styles are categorized into Neutral Styles, Film Emulation (classic Kodak and Fuji cinema film), Movie Inspired (blockbusters and indie masterpieces), and ALEXA Looks. # ASSISTANTS . Monitoring tools: Waveform, Parade, Histogram, RGB Histogram, Audio Meter. . Composition assistants: Aspect Ratios, Safe Area, Thirds, Crosshairs, and 3-axis Horizon Indicators. . Exposure assistants: Zebra Strips，False Color, Exposure Compensation, Auto Exposure. . Focus assistants: Focus Peaking and Auto Focus. . Recording: Record Beeper, Record Flash, Volume Key Record. . Zooming and Focusing: A-B Point. # DATA . Frame Rate Normalization: Mobile devices don't have perfect frame rate control, therefore, it's easy to get non-standard variable frame rate. Protake solves this problem fundamentally and makes strictly constant FPS of 24, 25, 30, 60, 120, etc. . File-naming: All the video files saved by Protake use the standard naming system: Camera Unit + Reel Number + Clip Count + Date + Suffix. It's something like "A001C00203_200412_IR8J.MOV"... Sounds familiar? . Metadata: Everything including device model, ISO, shutter angel, white balance, lens, connected accessories, location, are all well recorded in the file's metadata. . Time code: We provided both options for you -- Free Run and Record Run. It's compatible with your cinema cameras. # Protake+ .
