Sequency is a macOS application that converts EXR image sequences to H.264/ProRes video and transcodes BRAW/MXF camera media into linear EXR sequences. It uses a hybrid color pipeline combining Apple ColorSync and OpenColorIO/ACES for hardware-accelerated, color-accurate conversions. The app targets VFX and post-production professionals needing proxy, review, and delivery file conversions in one tool.
