What is the Slate?

Blackmagic URSA's touch screens have many purposes, one of which is to allow you to easily log metadata
directly into the camera using the Slate feature. Metadata is stored in the recorded files and is easily
accessed by editing software.
Step 1. Press the Slate button below the touch screen to make the slate appear.
Step 2. To enter or change details, touch the text you wish to change and a touch screen keyboard
will appear. Type in the desired information and touch Save.
Step 3. If you want the scene, shot or take number to auto-increment, touch the corresponding auto-
increment icon so it is illuminated. Touch it again to turn off the auto-increment feature.
Entering words into the Keywords field will allow you to use them as search terms in your library database.
This may be particularly useful for large projects where you have lots of material. The use of keywords
narrows down the number of clips to search through, saving valuable time when you are editing.
All metadata is compatible with popular software such as Final Cut Pro X and DaVinci Resolve.
