Activity Forums Adobe After Effects DPX files

  • Posted by Jamie Worsfold on October 17, 2007 at 12:43 pm

    I’m in the middle of an edit that’s been shot on 16mm and we’re currently having it graded in telecine.

    Now, I’m normally versed well more in the video side of things than film. But everything seems to be going fine so far. However, the telecine facilities are giving us dpx files back from the grade, which are obviously nice high quality.

    But what’s the best way of then putting those dpx files back into FCP? Presumably they’ll need to be converted (to HD).

    Quicktime won’t do it, will it? Bit I think After Effects will, won’t it?
    Anyone else had this kind of workflow before? Usually I would’ve done my research about something I didn’t know but this was sprung on me a little suddenly…!

    AE has support for importing DPX files as an image sequence. You might check the AE help file as it has some tips in dealing with DPX files.
