Blackmagic RAW (BRAW) Video Dataset for AI Training
Access 107,038 native Blackmagic RAW (.braw) clips captured in professional Blackmagic cinema-camera workflows. The approximately 595-hour collection preserves 12-bit camera-native material for BRAW decoding, image-signal-pipeline research, computational photography, colour processing, restoration, and video-model development.
Unlike conventional AI video datasets delivered only as rendered MP4 files, this collection provides access to the original camera-native BRAW material. Native files preserve the Blackmagic RAW decoding and processing pipeline together with available camera, colour and production metadata, making the dataset suitable for models and tools that need to work before the video has been flattened into a standard delivery format.
File-level inspection can provide resolution, frame rate, timecode, camera model, BRAW compression setting and available ISO, shutter, white balance, tint, colour-science, gamma, gamut and lens information for the selected inventory.
Dataset Preview
Representative rendered previews from native BRAW sources, covering varied lighting, skin tones, motion, locations, exposure conditions, and commercial production contexts.
The rendered examples provide a visual reference for the underlying BRAW material, including exposure range, colour information, motion, and scene complexity represented in the source footage.
Key Highlights
- • Original camera-native Blackmagic RAW (.braw) files rather than rendered video only
- • 107,038 clips and approximately 595 hours of professional 12-bit source footage
- • BRAW-specific decoding, compression, colour and camera metadata available from source files
- • RAW processing controls can support exposure, white-balance, tint and colour-pipeline experimentation
- • Professional production provenance and applicable model or property release records can remain linked to individual clips
