  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Adobe support...

Sony Vegas Pro is rumored to be working on 4K compatibility in their next version.
That makes me wonder: Is Sony secretly planning a 4K version of F35 in the near future?

Congrats Jim & Team Red!

I was crossing my fingers that you guys would nail this one to the wall.

MASSIVE!!!!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the fact that people will get to rock Redcode Raw in AE BEFORE CS4 - when CS4 gets released heads will explode!!!

Seriously fantastic!!!
 
*Looks at thread's first post.*
*Looks at installed software CS3 Master Collection.*
*Jaw hits floor.*
*Gets ready to download *.r3d files from whomever will give 'em.*
 
Absolutely fabulous! Cannot wait! Thanks guys. Thank you very very much.

Does anyone know if Premiere supports the AJA Kona 3 on Mac? Not saying I'm ready to jump ship just yet, but my curiosity is peaked a bit.

Not the Kona 3 but the Xena 2k, which is hardware identical for the PC. IE...Kona 3 mac, Xena 2k pc...same functionality.
 
thank you Jim.

Anyone from Adobe remember the early days of DVXuser?

We need someone like Jan from Panasonic..... who ever you are, you will be respected and you are needed and wanted. Please join the forum and give us some Adobe clues. Adobe I love you. RED I love you!!!
 
Does Premiere suffer from any of the 8 bit restrictions that FCP likes to spank us with?
 
More incredible good news today. Whole new world of possibilities if we have full 4K finishing out of AE with direct editing from R3D in premiere. OMFG... :blink:

...As much as I like FCS2, I think Appled just got pwned.
 
Again, I'm not ready to jump from my current editing platform, but I have to say, this is an interesting development. Just for kicks, I worked out what it would cost to upgrade to Production Premium. I already have After Effects CS3, so here is what it would cost.

$1,099 for the upgrade
$200 Discount for owning FCP
Total Investment - $899

If I can have a completely seamless 4K workflow on the Mac platform for $899, that is attractive. But it means learning Premiere. I already know Avid and FCP. At this point, I am open to all possibilities. I just want a solid workflow that allows access to metadata right from the editing/finishing tools at a price point that is affordable for a smaller studio. I want stability as well. Can't wait to see how this all pans out.

It is possible to work with 16 bit images and process internally at up to 32 bits per channel.

Now let us imagine how far from realtime this would be if we were working with 4K 12 bit R3D files and processing them internally at 32 bits per channel?

Oh but Flying Spaghetti Monster I want to try.

I have Magic Bullet/Colorista and I want to see how those work here as well.

This news is soooooooo good.
 
Jim did mention that there are many more companies to announce support - count on Apple being one of them... The only problem (not for me) is the inability to grade 4K in Color (2K max) - ditto FCP. But I do all my work at 2K max - so that doesn't worry me too much... :)
 
WOW - nearly missed this news altogether.

I giggled like a school girl when I read the magic words "RED R3D files will open natively in After Effects"

I can not even begin to tell you how happy this makes me - I'm actually feeling woozy and think I might pass out from all the opportunities this represents.

You guys seriously ROCK

Many Thanks

Yeah, I know Apple will come through, we've been told about R3D support in Color some time ago. And that obviously will lead to more. Apple is a bit behind with all their pro apps these days, they're totally slacking with Blu-Ray support and other things, not just supporting RED. I'm pretty sure that Apple will update and really come out swinging with a lot of good stuff via FCS3 or whatever. They're just being a bit slow about it, typical Apple.

And 2K finishing is great and makes good sense for the RED One and most projects. Provided that the high quality 2K can be derived from the full 4K R3Ds at render time without any of this rendering from proxy versions or L&T into ProRes conversion business. FCS will get there, of that I have no doubt.

Either way, I'm fine with Adobe CS3 support. Ecstatic, actually. I have the full CS3 suite for both PC & Mac, so I'm ready to roll. Nice to know that the PCs will get to do more than just run REDCINE within the next week or so!

Premiere Pro has an FCP "mode" where most of the shorcuts, hotkeys, etc. are the same.

Here is some good info about Premiere CS3 for FCP users:

Also, check the whitepaper for Leopard OS:

Now, would I be assuming too much to think Premiere and After Effects will let us edit and work from lower-quality versions? I guess I'm asking if it will do a partial debayer to generate half or quarter res "proxies" on the fly like QuickTime can?
