Hey guys,
I'm working with a director who started his commercial edit in FCP 7 which is his preferred NLE and he is using some effects, both standard and plug-ins. The DP has given us LUTs to be used with DaVinci Resolve for the final grade which will be done at a. I want to figure out the best way to keep my director editing in FCP 7, grade in Resolve and get the best looking final .mov for online streaming.
My first thought was that he could do what he does in FCP 7, export an XML to Resolve, relink to the .R3Ds for best grading and export an XML or DMX to be compressed/encoded elsewhere.
Any suggestions for a workflow that will work best while keeping all his editing and effects editing in FCP7, while also utilizing the .R3Ds since proxies are such low quality, to have an uncompressed 1080p file at the end?
thanks.
