I had blogged awhile back detailing the challenges of creating a production's deliverables (editorial media, iPad dallies, etc) on the set. One of the most potentially time and labor intensive aspects of this process is syncing sound to the video files to create independent clips with embedded audio.

Here's a tutorial from Wide Open Camera's Chris Marino about how to do detailed color-grading using both the free REDCINE-X and Premiere Pro. Says NoFilmSchool.com, If you have Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5, the changes you make to your shots in REDCINE update in Premiere Pro losslessly. Premiere Pro correctly interprets the metadata and you can then use, say, Colorista for secondary color correction on top of the native .R3D files.

When you cover a sport like hockey, basketball or football, there is a clear, defined direction of play, that being east-west, or for the viewer, left-right. However, what happens in a sport when there is no clearly-defined direction of play? With MMA becoming more and more mainstream everyday, and more events being televised, I felt...

What did you think you mistakenly think you were going to do for the next hour and a half? When a film contains interviews with the likes of Moby and Seth Godin, you know it's going to be worth watching. In fact if you work in the creative industries, this is one film you can't afford to miss.

Take the clip in the source monitor, use the current time indicator to create a sync point and automatically create the correct in and out points.
