A Guide for Digital Cinema Post Production

[El Director]

I've recently been experimenting with the ACES workflow and really digging how it works. The problem is that I couldn't find all the information in one place, so I made a video showing how I've used ACES on a short film to match my cameras, cut in Avid, conform in Resolve, and do VFX in Nuke, all with letting ACES take care of the color management.

Nice. Can’t wait to check it out. Thanks!

This time I look at conforming audio from AVID Media Composer. It's no secret that Media Composer dominates the feature film world, and every Tuesday, I see Hollywood editors post their timelines with 50 plus audio tracks to do sound effects and music. Since I've been on AVID, I hadn't figured out a way to conform that properly when I bring it to Resolve, but then I stumbled upon a way that works.
