21:03:12 From David Gennard to Everyone : This is definitely needed: 2400 photos shot today, agh! 21:04:22 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : Q - what did you find the C1 does that Photo mechanic didn’t? 21:06:06 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : C1 is way better! 21:06:29 From sknevels to Everyone : Q: Is it better than Lightroom? 21:06:37 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : I use C1 for everything for the past 8 years 21:06:56 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Oh so much lighter than Lightroom :-) 21:07:08 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : lighter? 21:07:12 From Marq Riley to Everyone : And getting better with every update. 21:07:27 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Lighter workwise, hence faster 21:07:47 From Sonja Blietschau to Everyone : @sknevels It’s so much better. I tether all my headshots and C1 is much faster and more reliable than LR 21:07:53 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : The fact you can do sessions you can take that actual project physicly with you on a seperate drive and use it anywhere..on any computer that has C1. 21:08:06 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : No argument, C1 is a different style of program that PM, more comparable to Lightroom. PM isn’t designed for actual photo edits, just organizing & info etc… I plan to give C1 a go again. 21:12:43 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : @craig…C1 is a steep learning curve at the beginning…I still dont use it to its full capacity…and I also took the Phase One certification course…and still dont know how to do stuff… 21:13:24 From Luma to Everyone : QUESTION: Do you rename your files once you first download them onto your laptop? 21:14:20 From Bianca Johnson to Everyone : I think she’s going to answer this in a little bit, but I’ve made note already :) 21:15:13 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Q: So you create one session per day? 21:15:48 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : You can make seperate output folders that automaticly sorts for you by the output type. 21:16:11 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : and also run multipul outputs at the same time. 21:16:46 From Matt Reznek to Everyone : Question: do they require you to send the Trash folder? 21:17:57 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : Q - how do you prevent overlapping frame numbers when working with two identical cameras? 21:18:38 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : …when loading into system,. and before renaming as described. 21:19:32 From Hugo Lenhardt to Everyone : QUESTION: I need to shoot a wrap picture tomorrow. How do you approach it? Is it just a group shot? Do you approach the last day of filming differently then the rest of the days photography wise? 21:23:05 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Q: Copy into RUNNING EDITS or Export into Running edits? 21:23:48 From Luma to Everyone : QUESTION: Have you ever done a back up in the cloud? 21:23:53 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : When sorting would it be quicker to star or rate the favourites and just leave the rest alone? 21:25:04 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Portfolio material, Nicola! 21:25:11 From sknevels to Everyone : Haha 21:25:16 From Julia Firak to Everyone : Haha;D 21:25:23 From julialaird to Everyone : hehe 21:30:01 From julialaird to Everyone : How long does it normally take you every evening to do this when you’ve done a full day of shooting? 21:30:07 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Q: so the studio also sees the RAW images that didn’t get 1 star? 21:32:58 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Q: can you share those process settings for hi-res and lo-res? 21:35:04 From Luma to Everyone : QUESTION: In your Output file, do you include not only the stills from the scenes of the day but also behind the scenes stills? 21:36:44 From Marq Riley to Everyone : I rename the camera file name, like DSCF is cam 1 and DSCQ is cam 2 21:37:11 From Sonja Blietschau to Everyone : That’s a great idea Marq 21:43:03 From Julia Firak to Everyone : I thought about that too, might be an easy fix Marq! 21:44:27 From Brian Hultay to Everyone : Sorry I’m late joining today 21:45:18 From Mark Kolodny to Everyone : Q: Once you’ve processed the RAW files which you’ve copied into Running Edits do you then delete those copied RAW files or keep them with the JPEGS? 21:45:26 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : I rename the folder numbers in camera, and also the camera file name - so my raw would be CMA-1xxx.NEF and CMB-1xxx.NEF, and the folders would be 101 and 102 21:45:59 From sknevels to Everyone : Q: What if your exposure isn't spot on? Do you tweak it to a neutral spot or leave it alone for them to do? 21:47:00 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : no cloud backup, too large to be practical, but your running edit would be manageable to do so. 21:47:15 From sknevels to Everyone : I use SmugMug for JPEG backup 21:47:23 From Mark Kolodny to Everyone : Q: Do you maintain physical backups in two different locations during a shoot? 21:48:23 From Daniella Sasaki to Everyone : I have lost a full 2TB HD of years of archive before. Today I use HDs and cloud as a hybrid save. 21:49:09 From Julia Firak to Everyone : Sorry to hear Daniella! Oh my! 21:49:11 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Question: Can Nicola shere here export process settings for hi and lo res? 21:49:16 From Marq Riley to Everyone : share 21:49:28 From Marq Riley to Everyone : *her 21:49:41 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : I also have my Catalog files / edit info ( Lightroom) uploaded to dropbox, so its accessible to my laptop and desktop, without taking up much space 21:50:05 From Daniella Sasaki to Everyone : Thank you, @Julia Firak. It was painful and sad. 21:51:52 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : I have multiple portable hard drives, and also keep them separate in luggage / carry on etc… 21:53:32 From Julia Firak to Everyone : 45 min! That’s a dream, I take forever! 21:53:40 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : 45 is quick! 21:54:08 From Bianca Johnson to Everyone : Either you love it or you hate it - the rest are up to other people 21:54:24 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : Am I the only one who doesn’t trash anything at all? It takes too much time. 21:55:50 From Sonja Blietschau to Everyone : I label my “trash” images red in C1 and then just delete them after a final check 21:56:01 From Julia Firak to Everyone : Would you do PS edits at any of those selects if needed? Or that’s something you would do at the end? 21:57:17 From Julia Firak to Everyone : (Eg remove something that’s in the way and cannot be done neatly in capture/lr) 21:58:28 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : What is the ratio of Stills to BTS? 22:02:06 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : *in the Running Edit folder 22:03:04 From Marq Riley to Everyone : But the RAWs have the same filename as the Jpegs in the running edit 22:04:06 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : IMHO - HD space is cheap. Don’t delete anything. 22:04:14 From Matt Reznek to Everyone : Question: will they come back to you for TIFF files if they want to make posters with images you’ve taken? Or do they just use the high res JPGs you’ve sent? 22:04:26 From Marq Riley to Everyone : And make sure you check the rename setting, otherwise it keeps the name from the previous project 22:05:28 From Brian Hultay to Everyone : Do you pull them (RAW’s) from the DCM folder? Or leave in the folder in order to maintain exif info when renaming? 22:05:54 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Q: those images in the additional folders of actors, crew, director, HODs are jpegs or RAW? 22:06:47 From Brian Hultay to Everyone : You are referring to batch processing? 22:13:13 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : We do that system alot here on longer shooting days 22:13:20 From Hugh Tull to Everyone : French Hours! 22:13:36 From Greg ALLEN to Everyone : Happy to have you with us Hopper!!!! 22:20:49 From Bianca Johnson to Everyone : One of my favourite movies of all time! 22:24:47 From Brian Hultay to Everyone : That’s called emptying your cup/ 22:35:57 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Q: Is there a different stills brief for streamer movies like Thunder Force, and how do you make crab arms look good? 22:50:11 From Bianca Johnson to Everyone : 167 photos a day 22:53:13 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : Q - do you point out comp shots pairings, or expect editor to see the possibilities? 22:55:47 From Marq Riley to Everyone : Olafur Darri Olafsson! 22:56:22 From Julia Firak to Everyone : Q: Is it ok to ask what lenses do you use on set? :) 23:01:31 From Craig Minielly to Everyone : Easy to see the PJ - great shot 23:13:35 From Daniella Sasaki to Everyone : That photo from Sebastião Salgado is amazing.
