Timecode-Based Workflow for a Camera-Roll Transfer The timecode-based method must be used in certain situations, such as when generating a list from an external EDL or when the clip files are offline. Create a new database Yes Telecine No log? Import log into database (should generate one record per camera roll) Enter at least one record, defining key number and timecode relationship Use Final Cut Pro to capture the entire camera roll as a single clip or capture desired takes as separate clips (the timecode must not change from the original) Basic Digital Intermediate Workflow Steps The digital intermediate (DI) process generally refers to any workflow that involves source video of 2K resolution or higher, whether from a high-quality film scan or a digital camera, and that results in new output media being generated for distribution instead of relying on conforming the original camera negative. The output can be high-resolution digital files or a film print made from the files. The primary goal of this workflow is to edit low-resolution versions of the source video clips in Final Cut Pro but have Color be able to color correct the original full-resolution source video clips and output the final movie. This is accomplished by exporting an Edit Decision List (EDL) from Final Cut Pro that Color uses to match to clip records in a Cinema Tools database. There are two common approaches that you can take in a DI workflow: • Scan all of the film: This is the simplest approach but requires a lot of disk storage space for the large video files that result. This approach is detailed in this section. 46 Chapter 3 Cinema Tools Workflows
