System Overview

Focus.pro is a professional tool specifically designed for Reality TV productions. The system operates in two key areas:

On-set Operation - recording and categorizing events by loggers and editors
Post-production - efficient search of materials for editing

Focus.pro is designed as a fully scalable distributed system, allowing for an unlimited number of logging and post-production workstations. All data is synchronized in real-time across all stations, and a dedicated cloud ensures global access to logs from any location.

Access Levels

The system operates with three permission levels:

Administrator
- Full access to all system functions
- Tag management and modification
Editor
- Access to all logs and stories
- Complete editing capabilities
Logger
- Creating logs
- Access to own materials

Logger Workstation

The logger workstation in the Focus.pro system includes a computer and video preview. Loggers have advanced tools for describing events:

Flexible Tag System

Administrators can create an unlimited number of tags in defined groups (e.g., events, locations, emotions). Tags are instantly synchronized across all workstations and can be color-coded to enhance interface readability.

Person Tag System

A special category of tags enables person identification with group divisions (e.g., hosts, participants) and the ability to attach profile photos.

Rating System

Each log has a unique timecode that allows precise material location. Additionally, the system enables rating logs by assigning "hearts" or stars, allowing content evaluation at the logging stage.

Story System

An advanced feature allowing for the creation of coherent stories and content organization during daily logger work. The Stories system also has extensive search options for quickly finding interesting materials.

Advanced Search

Focus.pro offers a comprehensive search system, enabling filtering of logs and stories by:

Tags
People
Days

User
Rating
Text phrases

Additional Features

Keyboard Shortcuts

The system provides intuitive keyboard shortcuts for loggers, which can be configured by the administrator.

Timecode

Focus.pro guarantees precise synchronization of logs with video material through LTC timecode. The timecode is delivered to the Focus.pro server and then distributed via network to all logger workstations. Timecode implementation details are established during pre-production.

Video Preview / Proxy Files

The system allows preview of video materials correlated with logs directly in the application. For optimal performance, proxy files should be prepared in H.264 codec, with the specified naming format:

prefix__10h15m00s00_-_10h30m00s00__suffix.mp4
