In nuce: In the detailed article “Frame.io Brings FiLMiC Pro to the Cloud – Testing the Workflow”, published by our friendly colleagues at Provideo Coalition, the experienced editor-slash-colourist Oliver Peters explains the possibilities that open up for users with the “Filmic Pro” app.
An overview: Below is an outline of what you can expect when reading the article. Does filmmaking in the cloud with Filmic Pro sparkle like pearl wine – or is the C2C dream bursting?
- How does the integration with Filmic Pro work? After you have finished your recording, the app encrypts the proxy file. Both low-res and high-res files are saved on your handset – within Filmic’s clip library.
- The workflow in a practical test: Can the filmmaker’s work prove itself in a use case? To find out, Oliver distributes his producer, his editor and his videographer in three different cities – purely hypothetically.
- Part 1 – Production on location: Here Oliver explains which settings you need to make in the app, which setting modes he chose for his shoot, and which upload settings you should select
- Part 2 – Offline editing: In his experimental set-up, Oliver parks his producer in a café to get to grips with offline editing using proxy files. Oliver also explains how to juggle footage in Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro.
- Part 3 – Online editing: At his workplace, the videographer transfers the footage from his iPhone to his laptop at home. To test online editing with Filmic Pro, Oliver uses Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro and Da Vinci Resolves. How will the editing tools fare in the endurance test?
- Conclusion: Was the cloud-to-cloud workflow able to convince professional Oliver – or does the integration between Frame.io and Filmic Pro fall flat? Find out in the course of this useful read!
