FCP X - RED 4K Feature Film Workflow at lacpug, April 24

[Michael Horton]

Sam Mestman from Lumaforge will be demoing the extensive 4k RED workflow capabilities Final Cut Pro X has to offer and explain why it's now just as easy to deliver in 4k as it is in 1080. He'll also be showing how FCPX can simplify as well as expand the traditional roles of the DIT, Assistant Editor, Editor, and colorist in an FCPX-Resolve pipeline to allow them to spend more time on the creative process, and less time on conforming/troubleshooting/banging your head against the wall. He'll take you from best practices for importing and grading your RED footage, to how to work with your metadata to speed up project prep, to taking advantage of some of FCPX's power features like the timeline index, all the way down to how FCPX integrates with Resolve for seamless delivery, regardless of resolution. FCPX has undergone an astonishing amount of development since it was first released, and is now a compelling option for professional DIT's, editors, and colorists, regardless of your workflow or deliverable.

I've seen Sam's webinar at Moviola, very interesting. It was more or less a rehash of his tutorials, with some extras thrown in, but the amount of information he provides is staggering at times.
I like him, because he aimes his tutorials to a more advanced portion of the market. Ripple Training and Larry Jordan are great trainings, but Sam doesn't really talk about the basics, but more about very specific workflow advancements made with FCPX.
Really great to see. I live in Belgium, so I won't be here, but big recommendation for everyone who has used X and wants to know more, and for everyone doubting about X's capabilities.

Hey Mathieu,

Thanks so much, as always, for the kind words. Much appreciated, and glad you got something out of it. Hopefully, we'll get a chance to catch up one of these days... if you're ever in LA, you should look me up, and I'll give you a tour of the lab and what we're doing. And for everyone else out there, come on out to LACPUG tonight, cause I'll be doing a version of what I did in the webinar there. Looking forward to meeting some of you guys!
