Could you please give a quick update of the ACES project?

Hello all :slight_smile:

I have been away from this forum for about 6 month. Is there something fundamental or important new that happend in the ACES project?
I found that there is a OCIO config 1.2.

Anything else I have overlooked?

Are there some posts here I should read?

Thanks for your help!

Peter

Hey @Peter_Rixner,

Seems like that @steven.tobenkin could probably give you a proper summary.

Cheers,

Yes, hi Peter and Thomas,

Just wrapping up some other deadlines today, but here are a few recent milestones off the top of my head:

  2. Product Partners show that they are integrating 1.2 and exchanging files in a workflow demonstration (https://acescentral.com/video-conference-get-up-to-date-on-aces-1-2-release/)
  3. Serious work being done in Gamut VWG and other remaining ACES 2.0 identified VWGs (like IDT and ODT groups) starting (https://acescentral.com/working-groups-home/)
  4. Despite Covid work stoppage, productions are continuing to use ACES (https://acescentral.com/aces-productions/)
  5. OCIO 2.0 released with new support for ACES coming (https://opencolorio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/upgrading_v2/how_to.html#new-operators-to-support-aces)
