Hi,
I'm sure you're tired of this thread, but I'm stuck. I've been thrown a budget emergency to change a current HD budget to a budget using the RED camera. Like an idiot, I've pretty much been ignoring discussions about the camera and workflow and the one LAFCPUG meeting I missed was the one on this subject. I know Graeme is the guru for this, but I don't know him.
It's a low budget picture. I haven't read it yet. I just got the call last night. The old budget had a blanket post equipment price so I don't know what they originally planned.
The old budget has an item for 200 hours of HD transfer (now 2k i'm told) , so I'm guessing that's the print figure.
Are the demosaic, color grading, down-convert processes done in the same computer as the FCP system or must it be done at a facility? Is it fairly simple or a big deal?
What are the costs to look out for?
What are my new hardware requirements?
What is the latest workflow using FCP?
I know this is general stuff I should have been paying attention to, but you know us old guys.
Thanks,
Barrett
