[Avid-L2] Re: Stuff I wish they'd fix

 

Actually there are some forms of source side color correction like features in Resolve. When I discovered the 1 frame skip problem last week in our Avid aaf to Resolve the actual source clips in the media pool were not skipping. The AE found the double clicking the clips in the timeline automatically loaded the clip in the source monitor with ins and outs, although the clips were 1 frame long it was easy to drag them to a track above the original V1 and trim off the extra frame. Once the clips were laid into V2 the clip automatically took on the color correction of the matching clip on V1. From what I've read this translates to all timelines in the project and there is a way to break the link if need be but I haven't gotten that far. I love the symphony relational color correction and I adopted techniques to exploit it but Resolve has some of these capabilities and the master timeline offers another time saving approach to get a fast basic grade. Still I'd like to just have this all in the Avid software because nothing beats one stop shopping for my reality, documentary work and really any work that I've done. File based has broken some of my tricks for naming clips according to color correction but hopefully in the future we will be able to base relational color correction on File based metadata that is similar to the traditional tape based clips named after the reel with a suffix starting at .01 and incrementing each subsequent clip from the same reel. There should be an easy way to do this in a file based workflow it's just a matter of finding out what part of the file metadata that could behave like the tape clip names did. Perhaps Disk ID plus a suffix. As I work more with file based stuff I'm hoping the patterns of metadata will become clearer to me.
