You can go one step further and create a sources sequence without even linking to any media, this i what I would do in this case, or yes you can just ghetto-make a sources sequence in resolve
I dont go an transcode everything - just whats needed, however, you cant publish from flame without re-rendering media if the source media lets say rendered by resolve is not in the correct, which it wont be, so you are again wasting possible
hours in transcodes and storage costs because flame cant read the most common formats used today.
I am sure large companies just throw people at the problem, but that does not consitute the vibe I am
going for where everything has to be as efficient as possible. We dont have juniors, nor the space for them, no assistants, we only have super senior pros, and while that sounds s bit crazy / it means no babysitting and less QC problems,
