Entering Metadata; Digital Slate - Blackmagic Design Hyperdeck Shuttle Hd Installations- Und Bedienungsanleitung

Entering Metadata

Metadata is information saved inside your clip, such as take numbers, lens information and
other identifying details. This is extremely useful when sorting and processing footage in post
production. For example, take, shot and scene numbers are essential organizational tools,
while lens information can be used to automatically remove distortion or better match VFX
assets to plates.
HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro automatically saves some metadata to each clip, such as timecode,
date and time. You can use the digital slate to add many additional details.

Digital Slate

Swipe from the far left edge on HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro to reveal the slate. The slate is
divided into 'clips', 'project' and 'lens data' tabs. The 'clips' tab contains information that may
vary clip by clip, while 'project' is where you enter details common between clips, such as the
project name, director, and camera and operator ID. The 'lens data' tab is where you can enter
information about the lens in use.
Clips
Making changes to clip metadata works differently in standby mode to playback mode. In
standby mode, when your HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro is ready to record, clip metadata gets
saved to the next clip recorded, except the 'good take last clip' button applies a 'good take' tag
to the most recently recorded clip. In 'playback' mode, when you are reviewing footage already
shot, the 'good take' button is shown and clip metadata is always attached to the current clip
being viewed.
When HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro is in playback mode, 'slate for' displays the clip the slate applies to and shows
the 'good take' button. In standby mode, the slate is for 'next clip' and shows the 'good take last clip' button.
