November 13 speculation

[Mike Harrington]

I am very excited to see what Red will bring forth in terms of workflow.....

Looking at the absense in development of RedCine....and the fact that Assimalate has some sort of deal with Adobe....I don't believe Red has just abandoned the Redcine idea. I would also guess that they intentionally held back the RAW SDK for others like cineform, until they had perfected there own workflow tool. (not meant to be argumentative or insulting to RED...just my speculation)

I am therefore speculating that the new Adobe importer might be more then just an importer....

Imagine if when importing you also had a mini Redcine as a PPro window...
with the ability to bring up look files and curves, noise reduction,WB, framing ect ect on the fly simply by clicking on the clips in your Adobe timeline.
With a similar interface to Redcine...this would rock.
This would also throw down the gauntlet for Cineform's firstlight application(again speculation....we really know nothing about firstlight....) and lead to more workflow options.

I am setting myself up for disappointment by thinking this....but if it close to being correct....then we are in for incredible Red workflows in the very near future and I will be extremely impressed

There may be some news about the Adobe plugin (i too am eager to get my hands on it), but I believe the focus will be on the Scarlet, Epic and possibly the DSMC. Details on specs and hopefully prices.

[Mike Harrington]

totally agree, scarlet and epic will be the big story

but any announcements on them will be longer term I'm sure....
while the adobe plugin could be imminent

Red likes to bundle suprises together...remember NAB

scarlet, epic, and redray

A biggo would be native R3D support for both Premiere and FCP.

A biggo would be native R3D support for both Premiere and FCP.

That would - as Jim phrases it - by now be beyond our imagination and would definitely satisfy us all.... :)

But I really CAN NOT imagine that to happen!

anythings possible...
but i doubt it.....

another idea.....
wouldn't it be cool for those users whose budget is below that of buying scratch....to have a cut down version of scratch in PPro....say just some of the grading tools with masking capabilities....no scaffolds, no realtime 2k ect ect

just a plug in of grading tools along with r3d import....

not saying this is in any way coming

but it would be a cool revenue stream for assimilate to cash in on the thousands of existing and tens of thousands of incoming r3d users....

A simple workflow for scarlet is key to its success. And in my belief that's where native support in Adobe and FCP fit in. Everything in will fall in place on 13.

[David Wyatt]

I'd be surprised if the whole the whole post thing fell into place at the same time since it's had no trumpeting from Red (and we all know from experience they love a good tease) and the 13th appears to be about the redesign of Scarlet and the DSMC which was a hasty reaction against the Nikon and Canon announcements (I guess they also thought while they were re-thinking Scarlet & the DSMC they might as well rethink Epic too...a complete overhaul in thinking?)

[Christoffer Glans]

Would be nice if redcine could export an ALE and import an Avid EDL.
That would erase loads of workflow issues on the PC side. Maybe audio out from redcine?
I don't even know what the audiobutton does at the momen, can't even hear audio.
