HDCAM workflow on a BMD decklink SD FCP system
hey im doing my first spot originated in full HD for broadcast. have a decklink Sp and a 2 drive raid. was thinking about working in DVCPRO HD or just uncompressed 10 bit 4:2:2. have a few questions
1- would a dump down to beta be a huge compromise in quality over digibeta. I know its a shame not to go HD the whole way but system wise thats out of the question. I need this set-up to work. I have access to a beta SP, which i why i have been using the decklink SP that I have.
2-I guess the HD will have to be transferred to some format, would a dvcpro HD deck be less to rent than a digibeta?
3-should I call around and see if there are any post houses that could do the capture for me and then just transfer it to my system via FW drive.
4- are there any field order of frame rate issues, I will post here soon with the spec on the HDCAM if needed. that said, will an xfer to beta or digibeta have the HD upper field first. I plan on using after effects to finish this thing, any issues there workflow wise? I have used AE uncompressed fine, though I have seen it act funny when footage comes in from FCP from a dvx100 when the shooter hasnt specified which flavor of 24p is on there.
5- in general when is the best part of the workflow to go from HD to SD, since this is purely an SD project.
any help, i would greatly appreciate. this forum has been great. hope everyone has a great ’06
