Live Logging on the film set. Created for directors, filmmakers and ad agencies: mark good and bad moments directly on the set. Connect to a Frame.io project with Camera-to-Cloud enabled and log your decisions live. Every button press creates a customizable marker in the Frame.io clip timeline. This way you’ll save tons of time sorting the footage. Disclaimer: The purpose of this app is to simulate the Frame.io live logging workflow with an Ambient NanoLockit. Using the physical NanoLockit box with haptic buttons will improve the logging experience a lot. Legal notice: https://ambient.de/en/policies/legal-notice
