Three street shots need a sign removed. Two of them come from one long take. The camera files sit on different team drives, and the finishing editor needs the right originals to make plates.
How Stringout solves this
01
Two shot IDs come from one long take
Find the cyclist and pedestrian passes in the indexed street footage and save each as a separate select named for its agreed shot ID. Both selects reference the same camera file, each with its own in and out points for the turnover.
02
The source files are held on different team drives
The shot list includes recordings indexed by different team Macs. Stringout stores each chosen range with its source file, and the finishing editor sees which original belongs to each shot before requesting the camera media.
To transfer a camera original, the Mac holding the file and the receiving Mac both need to be online.
03
The vendor needs frames beyond the cut
Each agreed shot range references its camera file, which holds the frames beyond the cut that the finishing editor needs. The editor sets handles and renders plates to the vendor’s specification in the team’s finishing tool.
The result
The right camera sources for finishing
Each shot ID has its own source range on its camera file, including the two shots from the same take. The finishing editor gets the selected originals and checks each range against the cut before preparing the vendor’s plates.
