Hi guys, So, I have a question I have not really found a straightforward answer to yet. If your footage was shot in Raw, R3D or CineDNG for example, how do you go about compositing? Working in a Log Gamma Curve means that it's harder to match your elements. And what about keying? It would be hard to key out green when everything is pretty much a dull grey. The best I have thought about is applying a light LUT to the footage, compositing, and match the footage, then export the composited elements as a separate ProRes4444 file, with alpha enabled. Then bringing all the elements in together in Resolve. And apply a final grade across all the footage that sort of makes sure everything sits together. I would love to hear what you guys think.. It's a workflow I am going to need for my next project, and so I'm trying to do some tests now and see whats most efficient. Thanks!  |

Also keen to hear this - Working on a new Sci Fi short - for an online competition and at the last minute we changed our mind from RAW to ProRes HQ on the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera - So I'm keen to hear some people's workflows and thoughts My two concerns were exposing correctly for RAW and secondly Card space as I only had 2 x 64gig cards. Am ordering more That beings said ProRes HQ came out awesome too - Here's a quick screenshot from the grade and rough draft with a before and after  http://instagram.com/p/tR_bS8ny2_ or Before And After |

Hey Wicus!
Would be awesome if you can do a video / screen recording of the basic workflow that you use and post the video here?
Cheerz,
Ruan

wow, awesome responses everyone! rickjoaquim that is looking seriously awesome! Excited to see the end product. Maybe post some WIP photo's in the colour correction section of this forum?  @wicus Labuschagne, Wow I didn;t expect to get such a direct, easy answer back. This is a true life saver. Thank you for giving out this information for the world to share! @ruan, clearly this forum is going to be pretty darn useful! |

Hi Guys, I've had a few requests asking how EDL's and CDL's are used in a vfx pipeline when sharing RAW footage with the Editor. Here is a quick video explaining how it all fits together. - |
