    RED ProRes Workflow

    Posted by Zak Ray on October 7, 2014 at 2:46 pm

    Hi all!

    I’m about to start editing a feature with about 50 hours of 4K RED media. We’ll be doing the finish in 1080p ProRes444, but in order to conserve drive space (and reduce the amount of initial transcoding time) I’m considering transcoding everything to ProRes LT (at a lower debayer setting) for the edit, then just transcoding the clips used in the final cut to 444 (full debayer) at the end.

    Does anyone have any experience with a similar workflow, or alternate workflow suggestions? It’s my first time doing a RED project this large so I’m open to ideas.

    Thanks!
