We Pre-Format all our USB drives to ExFat to be cross compatible with large files.

Has worked flawlessly so far.

Same thing on portable USB3 or Firewire drives.

Only our 3.5″ backup bare drives get formatted Mac.

The great tech guys at Softraid said they also confirm that the 3 TB Seagate Barracuda drives are not to be trusted. However the 1TB Barrracuda is one of their favorites. They rated the Seagate Constallation at the very top of the list and they are the only drives we use in our MacPro Raids…four 2 TB Constellation drives striped together.

Very fast.

We spent some time creating custom color profiles based on the Abel Cine Tech C300 profile. We matched our 5D Mark II to the C300 very close using these color profile settings. Now we barely have to touch the clips when cut side by side. Took a while but was worth the journey.

We back up all our camera footage and then our converted footage with project files to 1 terabyte bare 3.5″ hard drives. I have 30 camera footage drives and 60 project and converted footage drives plus a few others. I have secondary backups of all these at my house. But eventually they will fail.

Anyone else considering LTO and is there a decent Mac desktop solution that is fast? Would want at least 1 terabyte tapes so I can one-to-one my drives to tapes. Speed not as much a big deal as capacity and ease of use. Want a backup on the shelf that will work when my drives fail.

BluRay is too slow and doesn’t have the capacity.

Haven’t seen much of an argument for hardware. We have stuck with FCP7 because of our workflow and hardware. We upload media to Edit system X and on Edit system Y I simply point my scratch disc to System X and cut away. We edit over a closed Gigabit network 1080 ProRes. Has been working for years this way and it keeps our 5 edit systems humming no matter where the media is in our systems. We do not use external RAIDs. Rather each MacPro Tower has 8 terabytes of internal RAID storage across four drives. We have updated our video cards, RAM and PCI SSD startup drive to the bleeding edge of performance on these machines.

So our hardware and workflow, along with legacy projects that we refer back to a lot keep us anchored in FCP7.

We do use Photoshop and AfterEffects so I have two seats of CC 2014 and all seats have CS6.

Don’t love Premier’s media management and clunky project/sequence settings, and FCPX is just too scary a jump from the workflow we have working currently, for the past 10 years….

December 15, 2014 at 11:01 pm in reply to: Vimeo vs. YouTube?

The number one search engine is Google and the number two is YouTube. If a client is looking for analytics then you can’t beat YouTube.

Look at the big corporations like Honda….on YouTube. And, yes, after every single one you get a random selection of thumbnails. They’ll take the analytics.

We put all our samples on both YouTube (these link off our website’s portfolio page too so we get the wraparound) and a Vimeo link if we want to just send one single link as a sample to a client as a push email. Best of both worlds.

Plus we encode the exact same settings for both sites, but we do have to go thru the upload process for both.

We have three Millers and have traveled the country with them. Good value too.

The Miller Air is light and tough enough to handle travel. Enough for the Sony.

November 24, 2014 at 10:10 pm in reply to: XDCAM Software problem with Yosemite

Any fix to this? Yosemite looks like 10.1 to XDCAM installer, but it is in fact 10.10. XDCAM installer can’t figure this out.

Hmmmmm.
