Embedding metadata into flame exports?

@DaveWishart

Hello mate

I’ve recently figured a workflow to retain full shot metadata in our flame workflow.

1- have to transcode rushes in baselight.

2- resolve strips all metadata so no transcoding in that will help.

3 - import exrs as normal.

4- when publishing new exrs I’m using the ‘ link media - bit depth’ option instead of the more standard ‘generate media’

This creates a copy of the rushes clip rather than a newly rendered bit of media from flame.

This means we retain the full clip metadata on our plates.

It’s wise to use both options so we have a generated media and a linked media plate, so we can rely on proper archiving etc without worry.

That will at least give u the chance to get lens data etc over to artists etc.
