To bring all the action at the summer games back home to Mexico, Televisa built its own Mac-based TV station using Final Cut Studio and Xsan technology to simultaneously deliver HD and SD content in a 100% digital, tapeless workflow. “We’ve used a completely tapeless workflow” before, says Manuel Ramírez Sánchez, General Sports Director for Televisa, “but never on location and never on this scale.”

It’s simple to use the newest Aperture 2 editing plug-in, product manager Joe Schorr explains in a recent Inside Aperture Podcast. Select a photo, choose the new plug-in, adjust the familiar controls, then click Remove Noise. Noise Ninja processes the image, placing a “ finished TIFF file back in your library, stacked with the original image, so you have a denoised version right alongside the original.”
