    THAT WAS SICK!

    Yeah, I may be working with BorisFX on a tutorial some time in the near future – depends on their priorities.

    These models are a collection of extruded shapes, containerized with pivot points adjusted as needed. The Earth Mover’s boom was the only shape that I chose to draw outside of RED and import in for extrusion. Otherwise, everything was drawn and extruded in RED.

    It would be cool if BorisFX would expand RED’s modeling and animation capabilities, but my guess is that they don’t want to play in that space.

    However, I do hope that they find some value in how I’m putting RED to use. I’ll keep posting these things until they tell me to knock it off 🙂

    Hi Marcus! I modeled them in RED. As always, I’ll use RED for all modeling and animations.

    That’s nutz! Yeah I’m on FB though I’m almost never really “on” it.

    It would be really cool to meet up – lunch any day of the week is typically good for me. Let me know!

  • John,

    I think I’ve spec’ed out a good machine that will deliver good timeline playback performance for Sony Vegas Pro while using Boris RED 5 as a plugin (keeping in mind that timeline playback w/RED is CPU-dependent), but I want to run it by you to check my thinking, if you don’t mind:

    CPU: Dual Hex-core Xeon processors, 2.4GHz
    RAM: 32GB DDR4
    Boot Drive: 256GB PCIe SSD
    Project/Rendering Drive: 256GB PCIe SSD
    Storage Drive: 4TB SATA (5,400 RPM)
    GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 295×2

    The plan is to only store the media files needed for rendering on the project drive for the duration of the project. Once the final video is rendered, I would move all files from the project drive to the storage drive.

    Good plan? Good specs?

  • John and all concerned,

    After having settled on the Radeon R9 295X2, I wanted to find out from Boris if RED 5 had tested the card since I didn’t see it on their list of supported GPUs, and I found this out:

    Firstly, they haven’t tested that particular GPU, so they’re not sure.

    Secondly, unless you use one of the OpenGL filters in RED, a GPU will not affect timeline playback while using RED as a plugin for Sony Vegas Pro. “Once you go back into Sony Vegas’ timeline, RED will preview and render purely via the CPU, rather than the GPU.”

    Just thought you guys would like to know.

  • Again, thanks much John for your help!

  • Thanks Arturus. I’ll look into it!
