Cooke Optics, Codex and The Pixel Farm have teamed up to develop a metadata capture system that will build on the capabilities of iTechnology, which was originally developed by Cooke to record lens and camera data to aid post-production teams.

Cooke Optics chairman and owner Les Zellan (pictured) said: “We’ve been talking for a long time with our friends at Codex and The Pixel Farm about how we could improve both the physical and digital capabilities of iTechnology in order to further assist VFX teams to help them solve difficult tracking shots.”
