Conforming Red 4k edit
Hi all,
Apologies in advance if I’ve missed this in a forum elsewhere. I’ve scoured the internet and can’t seem to find what I’m looking for.
I’ve got a PILE of footage, shot on the RedOne in 4k. I’d like to edit using the proxies provided and then reconform back to 4k for composite etc. I understand the process up to the export of the edl (or xml) of my cut… Now, what next? The Red site talks of using Scratch to reconform, do I really need to buy this? In a nutshell I need to reconform and give my compositing guys a 4k image sequence of some sort.
I’m running FCP 6.0.6 with a Caldigit HDOne Raid.
Thanks any and all help!!

You might get a more detailed answer in the RED forum here, but I’d suggest you follow the steps in the RED FCP Whitepaper which is downloaded with the FCS installer from RED support. It will take you through the options for re-linking media for in order to use Color with the R3D files for grading nirvana.
Other options include the excellent Clipfinder (which is good at relinking media) and Monkey Extract.

Don’t edit with proxies, you can edit in ProRes and then reconform with an EDL.
