      The past year has seen ultra HD mature into an even higher-quality form for producers. MIPTV 2016 is examining the benefits of high dynamic range (HDR) and much-desired ‘better pixels’.

      Yesterday’s keynote speech delivered by Bill Baggelaar, Senior VP Technology, Sony Pictures Entertainment focused on 4K production. Baggelaar discussed the challenge of producing high-quality ultra HD episodic drama on time and on budget.

      On Monday, 4 April during the MIPTV opening party, delegates had the opportunity to watch the first episode of NHK’s new Asian Fantasy series, Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit. 

      The million-selling fantasy novel series came alive in a full 4K drama series, starring leading Japanese actress HarukaAyase.

      The story is set in an imaginary Kingdom called New Yogo, resembling ancient Asia, where the two worlds of spirits and humans intertwine in mysterious ways.

      This series is NHK’s first fantasy drama series to be produced in full 4K. The technology along with VFX presents the story in striking vividness. Viewers are sure to be captivated by dazzling scenes including action sequences in the dense forest, the splendor of the royal palace, and the emergence of spirits and demons. Starting this Spring, altogether 22 episodes will be aired in the coming three years.

      Atsushi Ochi, Senior Producer at NHK said: “It took three years of filming to adapt the original 12-volume Moribito novel to 22 episodes of drama for television. 4K technology helped to visualise the grand scale of the original story in a very colourful and vivid way”.

      Other companies presenting extracts of new Ultra HD content during the conferences include Atlantic Productions, BBC, DJazz, Eutelsat, Globo TV, Insight TV, In Front Sports,  NASA TV Orange, Paramax, Pearl TV,  Royal Opera House – Covent Garden , Saint Thomas Productions, SkyPerfect TV, Smithsonian Channel, SPI,  Travel XP, United4All and UHD-1.

      According to the 4K Ultra HD programme’s Executive Producer, Chris Forrester: “By any measure this is the biggest gathering of top line broadcasters and programme producers to showcase the most spectacular examples of 4K content and the latest news on Ultra HD transmission.”

      The official knowledge partner of the MIPTV 4K ultra HD programme is Sony Corporation (Japan) which provides the 4K projector technology as well as the TV set demos for ultra HD and HDR.
