CineForm and Adobe
-
[Jeremy Garchow] “Are you going to use it?”
Yes! Assuming that Adobe is able to optimize the speed it will be the GOTO mezzanine codec for 4k+ under Windows…probably even if Avid announce a rez-independent version of DNx. AFAIK Cineform is the best intermediate/mastering codec out there.

[Lance Bachelder] “You got me on that one! I was about to go ballistic lol – Adobe was Windows only in the early PPro days and Cineform’s Prospect was the only way to get a decent “pro” workflow with Premiere – I was probably the first person to ever cut a 2K L/R eye project in Premiere/Prospect using the Cineform codec – those .avi’s still look great today.”
Ha ha, yes, sorry again for misreading that! Cineform is all kinds of awesome.

[David Cherniack] “I could be wrong but I expect that Adobe’s growing clout in the post world, and the overall quality of Cineform, will see it increasingly being used as an acquisition codec by camera manufacturers.”
Man I want this to be true. ProRes is a great recording format, but Cineform would make my life just that much easier. It’s one of the reasons I’m keeping an eye on the Kinefinity cameras. Would also love to see BlackMagic adopt Cineform.

Now if we can just get the open source community to write import/export functions to FCPX!
Yay!

[Oliver Peters] “And now:”
DNxHR
So, is that the next deliverable?

[Jeremy Garchow] “So, is that the next deliverable?”
Depends on whether the industry cares about actual, approved standards, since Avid will seek SMPTE blessing under the VC-3 spec.
