  • FCS – Shake using prores

    Posted by Alan Lacey on February 12, 2008 at 10:57 am

    Hi Guys,

    Sorry if this is in the wrong forum but I’m trying to round trip FCS prores to Shake. Shake doesn’t seem to export properly using the prores codec, am I doing something wrong.

    Thanks Alan

    Since slashing the price of Shake to $500.00 from $4000.00 about 2 years ago, Apple will not be upgrading the current 4.1 version and offers very limited support. Hence it is before ProRes technology and not compatible. Until Apple releases the new advanced Shake you will have to do work arounds to take advantage of the 4.1 application.

    Thanks Rennie,

    The funny thing is that everything works right up to the final export. Which then renders but produces garbage.

    Maybe it’s worth posting on the Shake forum here or Apple provides links for several other shake user forums as well. I don’t use Shake myself ( I’ve been afraid of the time investment ) so I may be missing something.

    What was even more surprising is that my Commotion Pro (a long since unsupported app) works perfectly with ProRes.

    Wow, maybe ProRes is good at unwrapping itself and rewrapping all on it’s own. What does Shake and Commotion identify the file as once it’s in there?
