Speaking to AnimationXpress.com’s Zeenia Boatwala about the idea behind creating Sync.2.Finish, Kalpesh Revawala, Technical Manager at Tasaa, says, “Animation/VFX/Filmmaking is a collaborative job, which calls for lot of synchronization between artists working on a project. It requires precise inputs/feedback at all stages of production and with Sync.2.Finish your project review process would become much faster, simpler and efficient.”

Explaining further on the process, Kalpesh, informs, “The reviewer (your director/client/or any approver) would then be able to draw/comment directly on the video wherever required, and reply back to you. You would then be able to see all the comments and drawings directly on the shot/video, which had been sent for review.”
A more closer look at the features of this software brings out the information that it is a QuickTime based video player, supports almost all popular video file format & images, has loop sections using frame numbers, includes reviewer interface with drawing tools & Timeline, like you have in animation software, you can draw on frames or range of frames with your mouse or Wacom tablet in any color you choose, your video resides on FTP/Cloud Storage of your choice. , and you can open FTP & Intranet videos directly inside the tool, and it keeps record of reviews (versioning).
