This is what I’ve learned with SpeedGrade so far:
1) If you use Prelude to ingest DO NOT use the sub-clip function. Either log using comment markers, or import clips directly into Premiere & Log there. The reason being step 2 won’t work –
2) When you have finished your cut export the sequence as an EDL.
Create a timeline in SpeedGrade using the EDL.
Navigate in teh Desktop tab to the folder containing your source clips.
In the Reels tab click on “Load from Desktop” to relink your footage.
This way there is no transcoding between Premiere & SpeedGrade saving a generation & disk space.
3) I’m still working on the return route, so if someone is out ahead of me please let me know what the best workflow to return is?
Thanks.
