Hi guys, this is my first time in this forum. I have a workflow question about sony A7s with Resolve. I’ll be doing 10 webisodes color correction/grading. I will receive all the 10 episodes at once and I have 3 weeks to do it. Shot in 4K with Sony A7S. The footage is XAVC (I’ve never worked with this footage before). Normally I work with Raw RD3, Raw DNG files or ProRess. Destination is internet but they want to have it corrected for TV too just in case as the webisodes are for a broadcaster website. I’ll ask the editor for XMLs of each episode and footage. Romantic Drama. There are some digital speed ramps in the footage so I’ll ask for the footage without the speed ramp because it doesn’t read in the XML. I’ll ask for FX (if there’s FX) to be render prep and done. Question 1… Do I open one new project for each episode or within the same project, I’ll have timeline 1 (episode one), then import XML 2 – Timeline 2 (episode 2) etc,. I’ll save stills to apply same look to the other episodes. Of course, I must do shot matching first. 2- Broadcaster specs… I’ll send back everything to the editor so he can do the final online with sound. If the footage is 8bit, do I work in 10 bit in resolve? Because the broadcaster wants Bit rate: 10 bits I’m planning to give the editor back ProRess 422 then he can compress it for broadcaster right? 3. Still I didn’t speak with the editor yet so I’m not sure if the footage is Slog 2. Any recommendation with this codec? 4 Project settings: Finally, in the project settings/color management… what type timeline color space do you recommend for this. Thanks guys and sorry for all the dumb questions.
