  FILM Promo Workflow Help !!!!

  Posted by Rajarshi Basu on November 20, 2007 at 2:36 pm

  Hi,

  My friends have shot this promo on 35mm film. Now they want to insert some graphics , in the edited promo… which I will do in After Effects. Then they want to do the final onlining in Smoke.

  Can someone please suggest me a workflow, as to how to go about this…so that that I can give the Smoke guys, the final files like…TARGA or DPX…and they just have to color correct it…??

  What file format do i need to work on AFX… And the film has already been edited on Avid Media Composer…so its 720 * 576 now…not 2K anymore…

  Thanks

  Raj

  hi DAvid,

  “Are you saying that the entire feature was shot on 35mm, including the promo, to which you must now add motion graphics in AE?”

  ya…thats what it is. We are working on PAL 25fps.

  They have edited/ offline on the Avid.

  Because of the budget constraints, they want to do the compositing on AFX and the final online on Smoke.

  Now, I have received a QT file, 720/576 of the Avid edit.

  But I think that I need a 2k file sequence, so I can open a similar project in AFX ???

  Thats where Im getting confused… What kind of file sequence do I need from the AVID, to work on 2k in AFX ..and give the output to the Smoke guys ???

  Thnaks
