“You
would be surprised how many network shows are still finished in a linear
bay…”
True… though many of those are *started* in a linear bay, but *finished* using Smoke, DS, etc.
The facility I’m at now loves those
clients… we get to charge them twice—once to do the linear assembly
and again to do/redo/repair the effects, timewarps, etc in the NLE.
Much of the time, if these clients had
simply completed the assembly & FX in the NLE, they would spend less time
& money than the time+cost of only the “cleanup” session.
The shows we do that are NLE-centric usually
get done faster+cheaper pound for pound than the multiple-room shows.
That’s been my experience, your
mileage may vary.
If not DS… Smoke+Flame. I
think it’s the next best available pro toolset.

What sort of work goes into those
rooms instead of nonlinear?, and why?
what sort of gear, back to 20 layers
of digi-beta/D2 pre-read?

Hey, just make all the changes you
want. Then we'll ripple the list, hit auto-assemble, hide our eyes and
pray.

What's funny is when I do edit in a
linear suite, I'm reflexively looking for the 'save' button all of the time.

i can deal with that. then again, a
linear editor does none of these things, they just work when you push the
button. no HAL errors, no rendering, or Drives error. or capturing...
