Since its first year, keychain films has been able to maintain high production standards, both content wise and technical wise. Almost 99% of our productions are done on DV Digital High Definition format shot on top of the line Sony and Canon Cameras and edited on nonlinear systems that maintain pristine quality throughout the production flow.

We acquired HD (High Definition) production capability during our very first year. SONY pristine imaging technology combined with of Carl Zeiss lenses and ARRI Lighting along with quality sound captured with German Sennhieser Mics and recorded on Tascam Digital Recorder makes a perfect image and sound acquiring machine you want a high quality documentary or television program or a film. Since our editing systems maintain the high resolution of HD throughout the post-production flow Thanks to our investment in industry’s top technical developers like Apple, Adobe, ADS Tech, Canopus, Adaptec, Cambridge Soundworks, Dell, IBM, Toshiba, Seagate, Hitachi, Quantum, Samsung, Philips etc and combined with our native developed proprietary technology and workflow methodology, the possibilities are unlimited. From correcting/adjusting frames acquired in difficult situations to multitude of delivery formats from high quality Digital HD video.

In spite of all this technological capability, we like to invest in our people, more than anything else. It is our belief that it is our rightly placed trust, in our team that delivers.

Surely all this equipment and capability give us only one thing: the ability to satisfy our clients and to provide them unlimited possibilities.

ARRI Lighting including fresnels and soft boxes is the pinnacle of German technology. These are the only lights in the world which are designed completely in computers using CAD technology and achieves ultimate in control and precision. The light stands are manufactured by Manfrotto Italy which is one of the top brands in grips and support equipment. Combined with the native development of keychain films they make our images talk, impress, convey and convince.

And if that’s not enough our Senhiesser M-66 an extremely unidirectional Boom Mic picks up sound of just anything we want and but only the things we want and our clients require. Sound is recorded on Tascam DR-40 Digital Audio Recorder which captures sound on 24bit 96KHz High Definition audio format.

Post
Post we feel has always been the home ground for us. Mr. Kashif Kamal himself has been responsible for selecting equipment to designing and operating the post facilities of many of our competitors today. He built from scratch the most advanced post facility at the time based on Matrox Digisuites for Serendip Productions in 1999. Later the same was adopted by PTV’s Graphics Lab 2 on his recommendations. For Montage Production house and Sharpcut films foreseeing the change in the industry, he suggested a shift to Apple Macintosh. There are many others who have and still consult with him on matters of equipment not only in Post but Production as well. For keychain films he is right in the middle of redesigning the whole work philosophy and back end technology once again.

Apple Mac Editing machines form the basic line of our post right now. In support we use AJA system’s Kona LHi editing board with up/down/cross conversion capability, ADDA converter from ADS Tech, Sound monitoring Cambridge Soundworks 5.1 Dolby Digital sound system, High Definition Video Monitoring on and Samsung High Definition LCD Panel, Cannon Imaging Scanner etc.

Interfacing for transferring is 100% digital insuring maximum quality and absolutely no generation losses whatsoever.
