Panasonic AG-HPX170 AJA KiPro Apple Pro Res 422 Final Cut Studio 3 Color

I'm Jeremy Steel of EidolonVisage Productions: Ok so this is a workflow test I conducted at Texas Media Systems. Most will find this extremely boring, for one or two others, let's press on. I started with the Panasonic AG-HPX170 camera connect to an AJA KiPro via HD-SDI (no P2 card was used). As for the KiPro I captured the 1080i coming in at 1080i with the Apple Pro Res 422 HQ codec. I transferred the QT file to a Mac Pro and from Final Cut Pro (7) sent it to Color. I applied a slight S-curve in the primary room and added some FX in the FX room: additive blur, filmlook, bleach, and gamma adj. (1.2). I rendered out in Apple Pro Res 422 HQ and imported into FCP. There I added the titles and split-screen and sent that to Compressor. I used the YouTube preset (H.264, 8Mbps, 854x480). If you haven't stabbed yourself in the throat with a graphite writing tool by now, hopefully you found this test interesting.

You're absolutely right, unfortunately posting to youtube was an after-thought for me and by that time all I had was the SD file. I was more hoping the info of recording without a P2 card and at a higher bit-rate with the KiPro would be interesting.

You should have kept the resolution native when you compressed it for Youtube. But other then that it looks great!
