Case Study: Devotion achieves faster, more accurate remote film production with Frame.io

Devotion orchestrates 1,000 VFX shots and 450 hours of dailies with Frame.io

Devotion, a film production company, faced the challenge of managing a complex, bicoastal shoot during the pandemic. They needed to ensure authenticity for their Korean War-era aviation biopic while enabling director JD Dillard and his remote editorial team to review hundreds of hours of high-quality aerial dailies and collaborate with visual effects and music departments.

The solution was implemented using Frame.io, which integrated with their Adobe Premiere workflow. Frame.io allowed for the rapid and accurate review of HDR dailies on mobile devices, served as a centralized hub for sharing assets with VFX and music teams, and provided workflow automations via its API. This gave the director creative confidence and saved significant time, enabling him to even review cuts remotely with his father. The team efficiently managed 450 hours of dailies and approximately 1,000 VFX shots.
