    [Oliver Peters] “While this is true, you might want to take a look at the production and post workflow that Fincher’s team set up for “Zodiac” and “Benjamin Button”. Pre-RED and pre-Light Iron. I would suggest that it was quite a bit more elaborate.”

    On top of that, the workflow from Light Iron is not new…it was happening before Ender’s Game started shooting.

    And there are other carts that work exactly the same from companies other than Light Iron too.

    OK. So he’s a good self promoter! But still, it’s an impressive accomplishment.

    Well…. The film I’m currently cutting was shot on RED. On a particularly bad weather day, the DIT on set was doing all of his work from a laptop in the back of a Smart car! Now, THAT was far more impressive 😉

    Was he doing transcodes too?

    Probably not. He was backing up and reviewing clips for director and crew. They did encode dailies and uploaded those to Google Drive for the producers, but that was done at home base. Likewise edit proxies were transcoded at home base, too.

    It’s not that the workflow isn’t impressive and once you get past the intro there’s quite a lot of interesting information, it’s just that the tone is completely wrong. I find it funny when people respond with ‘well, what have you done?’ when there’s criticism, if that was a prerequisite then there would be very little for anyone to give their opinion on.

    Coincidentally, this ad came on the TV just after I’d watched the Lightiron vid.

    It’s not just Vodka, it’s a “Vodka Experience.”

    And that would be a BAD thing?

    I respect the creator, NOT the critic.

    Until you’re being the critic, of course.
