I created the rough cut for the second half of our commercial (everything that was shot on the LED volume).
There were a lot of issues regarding file workflow, simply due to the large file sizes. The zipped files were already almost 400 GB! Extracting them and then converting them to .exr's took up a lot of space.
I quickly started finalizing the clips, and deleting the .exrs that I didn't need to free up space to convert more footage.
Honestly, this workflow isn't the best, so the first thing we need to do is finalize the cut. Once we know exactly which frames we need from everything we shot, we can divide up the comp work if needed (also to prevent one person's computer from being out of storage).
