The news comes after Sony’s new Ult Power Sound Bluetooth speaker series released in partnership with Peso Pluma.
Last April, Sony released its new flagship BVM-HX3110 4K Trimaster professional production monitor, which processes footage with up to 4,000 peak nits of brightness. At the company’s media preview — held Sony Pictures Studios’ Culver City lot — in March, Top Gun: Maverick director said of the BVM-3110, “I was blown away with 4000 nits. It’s incredible to see how far it has come in just a few years. I am excited to work with it on our new film — we have daylight exteriors and that seems to be where HDR shines in a way that feels very natural.”
“We’ll spend weeks, if not months, color grading a movie — it is critical the consumer has an option to see it exactly as we intended,” he continued.
Academy Award-winning cinematographer Claudio Miranda (Life of Pi, Top Gun: Maverick) added, “from the demos we saw of Top Gun, I could see it was the exact way we shot it.”
