Flexible solution for tape and tapelessBecause workflows aren't the same any more...

RushesStation Pro acknowledges that workflows are not always the same, even for the same company, particularly at the moment. Productions shot on tape are still being transferred to DVD or MPEG for logging, and hard drive cameras are having their files encoded into smaller proxy files for logging and offlines. But the new workflows still need logging to be done and you don't want your staff to have to learn a different logging application just because your production variables have shifted.

RS Pro presents itself as the comprehensive and universal tool for your production requirements. No other logging software allows for DVD video as well as files in AVI, Quicktime, MPEG4 and many more. You can even run the sound files from your soundman as it allows Broadcast wav files, MP3 and WAV.

Quicktime files with timecode tracks (this includes all correctly-made proxy files) can be read and logged and the data saved in a Final Cut Pro project format.

When your programme has been edited, load an export of the sequence into RS Pro. If you load an edl as well you will instantly have a logged version of the finished programme, perfect for post production scripts.

Shoot on tape, log off DVD-BITC, edit and conform

• Shoot and receive back a box of tapes
• Transfer tapes to DVD-BITC
• View, log and/or transcribe each DVD
• Create printouts for hard-copy devotees.
• Export logs to Final Cut Pro or Avid format.
• Batch digitise logged footage or link to already digitised footage.

Shoot on Panasonic P2, encode clips to Quicktime, log and then edit in FCP

Once your P2 footage is imported into an FCP suite, export the project using Compressor into smaller Quicktime files. These can then be logged using RS Pro on a standard office PC and the logged info reimported into FCP as a new project file or bin.
