Why Apple Pro Technologies?
Mobile Lab's main workstation contains the maximum configuration of processors, ram, SSD's and graphics boards in Apple's new, hyperfast Mac Pro, also fitted with the added Afterburner - a card defined as a "Game-Changing Accelerator". This monster machine can process contemporarily 6 streams of ProRes 8K RAW or 23 streams of ProRes 4K RAW.
The ability to grade native 8K is even more critical than editing it.
Mobile Digital Lab also sports two of Apple's brilliant new 1000 nits. 32" displays - the 6k XDR's, which can also display HDR. In the words of Jarred Land, president Red Digital Cinema "Apple’s new hardware brings a mind‐blowing level of performance to proxy‐free r3d workflows".
Grant Petty, CEO of Blackmagic Design adds;
"With the new Mac Pro and Afterburner, we see full‐quality 8K performance in real-time with colour correction and effects, something we could never dream of doing before. DaVinci Resolve running on the new Mac Pro is easily the fastest way to edit, grade, and finish movies and TV shows.”
"In my modest opinion, I can say that I bought my first Mac more than 40 years ago, and I've always preferred them to other operating systems, thanks to their ease of use and reliability; now that the new powerful multi-processor pro workstations have become extremely powerful workhorses, and offer the flexibility of numerous card slots, its a no - brainer".

David Bush & Mike Connor present a cutting edge editing, colour grading and DIT unit created by them & based on their wish lists for post-production after decades of production and post-production experience.
The system is placed on or near set and is designed to save time & money for producers while offering exceptional quality for advertising, documentary, film & television production and post.
The core of the system is an extremely powerful workstation based on a fully optioned Apple Mac Pro with Da Vinci Resolve software & hardware. The combination avoids the need to use the traditional off-line (or with proxies) workflow, then re-conforming on-line, and the time required for this.
With the Mobile Lab, it is now possible to work with a full high-resolution deliverable or master in HD, 2k, 4k, or 8k from the first day of shooting.
The Mobile Lab is both a lightning-fast DIT workstation and creative editorial, colour grading and audio editing hub - all within a single system.

Biography
I have been to China, Hungary, India, Italy, Norway, Malta, Mexico, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovakia, South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, the US and the UK temporarily for my work, with Italy as the main hub for over 40 years. I am currently living in the UK.
I have been working professionally since 1975 - first in television as an editor, then in post production and vfx for commercials, and finally for the film and television industries with supervision of post production, visual effects and 3d. I founded, found the financing, and managed four of Italy's most successful and innovative post production facilities in their days: IMAGINACTION in Milan (1984), DIGITALVIDEO in Milan (1987), INTERACTIVE in Milan (1992) and CINECITTÀ DIGITAL in Rome (2001).
My passion and desire to contribute my production and post production expertise ever more to feature films and television series often took me out of the post production facilities I had founded and managed to supervise and produce visual effects on set, and, since 2008, I have also specialised in offering high level consultancy for production, native stereography, 3d grading and post production.
In the last few years I have hosted Master classes to train film crews in how to shoot native 3d for China Film Group in Munich and Bejing, for Tecnovision/D-Vision in Rome, for Dunia Production in Jeddah, and Adriana Trincea Cinematografia in Rome.
Over the years I have had the enormous priviledge of working with many talented Film Directors in the industry, offering my expertise for their increasingly challenging requirements for story-telling.
A pioneer with new technologies and somewhat a master of them, I have been involved in European High Technology Projects as a user, specifier and technology test bed. I have recently co-founded with Mike Connor an innovative 8k Mobile Digital Lab which we intend to offer to large and small documentary, film, streaming and television productions around the World.
