Haha, small world.
“you’re able to use the original R3D media all the time on any system including laptops.”
I was forced to use my 3 year old black MacBook to edit R3D M proxies on set a while back. Set the timeline to unlimited rt, video to dynamic quality, and there you go. You’re editing RED via FW 400 on a 3 year old Macbook. Don’t knock it until you try it. haha.
The proxies in the RDC folders all reference or point to the original R3D’s contained within, so you’re using the original media. Did you think I meant transcoding the footage?

Some of your Premiere features are old news for FCP.
-I was editing proxies in realtime almost 3 years ago with FCP. That’s what the M and P proxies are for.
-RED Alert creates RSX files that can update the proxies in FCP immediately(while in the timeline). Other RED apps expand on this. Hit command + tab and it’s as quick as applying an effect.
-You can import look presets based on the metadata and apply them if you use the log and transfer workflow.
-Color has full access to the metadata via the RED Tab in the primary room. How often do you need to change kelvin on the fly within your NLE anyways?
…but I agree, Pro apps aren’t going anywhere. Here’s a good read…

Here’s another one on the Mercury Engine…
Google how much that system costs.

“Rumor has it you will need another dedicated video card for the processing of the DaVinci Resolve”
I don’t think that’s just a rumor if you want realtime playback.

Ultrascopes only work with PC’s, supported graphics cards, and monitor resolutions. You can get an Ultrascope system setup for less than $1500. Now consider how much hardware scopes will cost and you’ll see why you should be swearing in church.

I just messed around with your shot for a second and got a pretty good luma key from his shirt. To do this right I’d suggest doing separate keys. Mask out different sections of his body precompose each key then combine them all later. Using a luma key with Keylight should work pretty well, but if you have Primatte, that will work better than Keylight for something with this much spill.

I looked through the current manual a few weeks ago. The main way to manipulate the lift, gamma, and gain is through the trackballs, but I didn’t see a GUI for the “hue wheels.” Basically nothing for a mouse to grab on to. Is this correct Darin or did I just miss that part?
If that’s correct then it seems like mouse users would be forced to use custom curves to be efficient.

No problem. I’m just glad I have a stockpile of random jpg’s lying around.

You don’t have to be panning depending on which direction the camera is pointed. You can hold a camera totally still then point it out the window of a moving train and you’ll see the rolling shutter problem. All the vertical posts/lines near you will look like this…
Bullet Train Window
I’ve never tried it with a car going 70mph, but the same thing will happen if you point the camera out perpendicular to the direction the car is moving.

Yes, I’ll be fully prepared for the onslaught of new customers breaking down the door. Huzzah.
