Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFrancesco Bucciantini is a broadcast encoder and computer science engineer with nine years of experience specialising in high-fidelity audio/video coding and production workflows. Based in London, he designs and implements C++ supply chains and bespoke tools (from high bit-depth Avisynth pipelines to a Tektronix-like waveform monitor) that enable Sky’s Originals and live news/sports teams to ingest, convert and QC footage with filmic precision. He is particularly passionate about linear algebra and applies that mathematical foundation to color matrix, transfer and primaries conversions, LUT design and high-precision filtering. Comfortable across the stack, he also builds touch-friendly playout UIs and integration layers for MAM systems like AVID Interplay via Mediadirector. A pragmatic problem-solver, he combines hands-on manual encoding for creative intent with automation that keeps daily production running smoothly, and contributes to open source projects in the encoding ecosystem.
