## The remote grade handoff

Remote grade and VFX notes between London and New York still eat a half-day. Every overnight project pays for the water crossing. Conform, grade notes, and retouch maps arrive the next morning. Someone rebuilds the state. A half-day per project, every project. That is the cost of the overnight handoff as it stands.

## How Pushing Frames_ fits

Pushing Frames_ sits inside DaVinci. It captures the conform, routes grade notes, and turns the overnight handoff into one surface.
