From timeline to Vendor
Editorial timeline
IrisIrisIrisRead once. Carried the whole way.
Scene, slate, take, the CDL colour decision, the LUTs, the lens data. Origami reads it once off the media, binds it to every clip, and carries it from set through editorial, VFX and finishing. Nobody re-keys it, and DI stops chasing mismatches.

“Origami has reclaimed valuable hours for our editors and support staff. It empowers our creative team to focus on what truly matters.”
Robert C. Rodriguez
VP Post Production, Point 360
iriscolour verificationThe vendor sees exactly what the editor saw.
Every pull ships with the colour already applied: auto-named CDLs, the right LUTs from your project, and V-zero proxies at 1080p with the look baked in. When a shot drifts, the colour check catches it before it ships.
Guidance, not a QC stamp — Iris flags the drift, your colourist makes the call.

Origami LinkThe link between Origami and your storage.
Seamlessly connect storage from across your facilities. Origami works with the storage you already own: nothing moves, nothing is replicated. Available on Mac, Windows and Linux.
Origami generates a single-use connect code for this storage.

Any storage. Any mix. No consolidating.
A SAN in London, a NAS over the road, loose hard drives, an S3 bucket. Origami treats them as one repository, where they are. The platform becomes the one place you access all of it.
Connect any mix of storage and Origami reads everything in place. One platform where you access all of it; nothing is moved, nothing is consolidated.

Keep a master and a backup in two places and Origami knows about both. If one site goes down, it automatically pulls from the other.
Set it running. Walk away.
Drop a turnover and the four steps run on their own: submit, trim, render, deliver. The repetitive ninety percent happens hands-off.

The business case for your post house.
“It helped me lighten up the workload for certain tasks so I could focus more on support for the colourist.”
Maikel Popic
Post Assist, Unit Film & TV
“The ability to streamline time-consuming tasks with Origami was a huge advantage on Strife S2. The efficiencies let our editorial team stay focused on the creative needs of the show.”
Lisa Jacobi
Post Production Supervisor, Soundfirm

“Staffing aside, the accuracy on time-sensitive pulls is the appealing part.”
Jeff Brink

“Once that was sorted, I honestly did not have to worry about it. It just sat there, did what it needed to do.”
Maitland Buchanan
Unit Film & TV
“It just so happens that we turn things around a lot faster than we used to, and the client goes, that is delightful.”

“I think this is a nice workflow for them. The fact they can just drop it in.”
