//这个截图中,我可以看到我的助理Catherine正在这一个Bin里编辑,因为出现了代表她的蓝色小图标。Bin以及其中的时间线就被当前正在编辑的人锁定,其他人无法修改。
Collaborators get a visual notification that a user is working in
that bin or on that timeline. When the person who first selected
the bin or opened the timeline moves to another bin or timeline,
those items are available for other collaborators to make
changes.
有人在Bin以及其中的时间线中编辑时,参与协作的成员们会有可视化的提醒。当有人完成某个Bin中的工作并移动到另一个Bin中时,其他人就可以对这个Bin进行编辑了。
When the
current controller of a bin/timeline makes a change, collaborators
will see a refresh icon for the bin/timeline. Clicking this icon
ripples changes to clips/timelines out to the collaborator’s own
timeline.
当一个Bin或者时间线被某人修改后,其他成员可以看到一个刷新图标出现在Bin或者时间线的名称旁边。点击即可将修改后的部分同步到自己这边。

I had asked
Catherine to add metadata to some clips in this footage bin.
Instead of a constant stream of notifications about updates, I get
this refresh icon. When I click it all her work is visible to
me.
//我让Catherine为一些Bin中素材添加了元数据。而不是对她修改结果的实时更新,我只是会看到这个刷新图标。当我点击它我就能看到她的工作结果了。

On the Edit page, you can also quickly identify
who’s working on the timeline. In this screen, Catherine sees that
I’m editing a timeline.
//在剪辑页面中,你也可以辨认出谁在编辑这一条时间线。在这个截图里,Catherine就可以看到我正在编辑这条时间线。
While there is
some interaction needed by users when collaborating on
bins/timelines, I understand why Blackmagic did it this way.
Editorial changes and changes to metadata can come fast and furious
– it’d suck if other collaborators received a constant stream up of
updates as it’d be hard to keep up with the timeline changing all
the time.
虽然在Bin或者时间线上的协作时,成员之间需要进行一些交互,但我明白为什么Blackmagic采用这了这种方式来实现。元数据的编辑、更改通常都会有大量的修改数据 -
如果其他成员不断地收到更新的内容,对网络和系统都是一个负担,尤其是体现在时间轴上的改变。
Color Page Workflow
调色页面的工作流程
When it
comes to collaborative workflow, it should be no surprise that
Blackmagic’s new approach shines on the Color page.
一旦来到达芬奇的协同工作流程,可能你对达芬奇调色页面的亮点就不会感到特别地惊讶了。
Gone are the
Resolve12.5 approaches of owner/collaborator and having to reload
projects, etc.
以前版本中编辑项目的人以及参与者都需要时常重新加载项目来刷新之类的。
In Resolve 14,
the first person to access a shot temporarily (while they’re
working on it) controls that clip. While they’re working on the
shot, every other collaborator will get visual queues that that
clip is being worked on (both on the Thumbnail timeline and in the
Viewer).
在达芬奇14版中。第一个访问这一条镜头开始编辑的人就有了对这个镜头的控制权。当有人在进行调色工作时,其他成员就会在时间线缩略图和查看器中看到。

When
a collaborator (in this case Catherine) is working on a shot, I get
a visual icon in the viewer and thumbnail timeline that she’s
working on it. Once Catherine moves to another shot I’ll be able to
see the results of her work.
当一个成员(比如此时的Catherine)正在对一个镜头调色时,我这边将会看到一个她的小图标出现在时间线缩略图和查看器中。只要她跳转到下一个镜头时我就会看到之前的调色结果。
The work that
is applied to a clip is only viewable to other collaborators when
the original person who first accessed the clip moves to another
shot.
只有当第一个进入编辑的成员完成了这个镜头的调色后,其他人才能看到调色后的结果。
It’s that simple!No refresh buttons, or
having to reload a project.
就这么简单!不需要点击刷新,更不需要重新加载项目。
From a
workflow standpoint, I’ve found a lot of success so far with me
(the lead colorist) well….leading and an assistant following a shot
or two behind doing more tedious detailed work.
在协同工作流程中,我发现了很多对调色师很好的一些点。当然…手下的一两个助理就会干更多的枯燥的更细节的活了。
In very time
sensitive projects I’ve found it useful to split up the timeline by
shot range, handing that work off to two or more assistants, and
then I check and refine their work after they move off those
shots.
在时间比较紧的项目中,我发现通过拍摄范围来分割时间线是很有用的,将这项工作交给两名或多名助理,然后在他们完成这些镜头后,我再去检查并完善他们的工作。
Shared Stills
共享静帧
One of the
most welcomed features from a color point of view in the
collaborative workflow is shared stills. Because stills contain a
visual representation of a shot along with the actual nodes that
make up that grade, they’re a great tool for color
collaboration.
协同工作流程中关于调色最受欢迎的功能之一就是共享静帧。
因为静帧包含了一个镜头的画面风格以及组成调色的节点,因此在调色的协同工作中共享静帧是一个很好的工具。
A few things
about shared stills:
一些关于共享静帧的点:
Having to switch stills folders – I’ve
found in the current shipping Public Beta (Beta 2) that stills do
update but only after clicking off a saved stills page and back to
that page for a saved still made by someone else
to show up.
Gallery Organization – The gallery can
quickly get out of control if everyone in a collaborative project
is saving stills. Some thought should be put into
how to organize the gallery. I’ve found a good system is a stills
folder for each person/system. You may also want to have a master
stills page to distribute approved looks.
画廊的管理
-
如果所有成员都在保存静帧画廊可能很快就会崩掉。所以得想办法管理一下。我就发现每个成员都建立一个文件夹各自保存这样会好很多。你也可以用主静帧页面来向其他成员分发参考的静帧。
Naming Stills – I often confuse myself
saving stills for my individual projects! Naming stills becomes
particularly important when working with others. Be as descriptive
as possible to let other users know what the still is for and why
it was saved.
静帧的命名
-
我自己都经常在自己的项目里把各个静帧搞混。给静帧命名在协同工作中变得非常重要。给静帧取个合适的名字可以让其他人明白这个静帧是拿来干什么的和为什么要保留它。

Shared
stills are an awesome feature of Resolve collaboration, but
attention must be paid to keeping your still pages organized, as
well as labeling stills and getting rid of old
ones.
//共享静帧是达芬奇协同工作中一个很棒的功能,但是必须注意的是要保持静帧页面有序的管理,以及标记静帧和及时清理不需要的静帧。
Equally
important with shared stills is removing old/not used stills. The
more people involved in a collaborative workflow, the more chances
that corrections in saved still could be applied wrongly to shots
in the color page timeline.
与共享静帧同样重要的是删除旧的或者不使用的静帧。
参与协同工作流程的人越多,错误地把不需要的静帧应用于时间轴上的可能越多。

Collaboration In Action
实践
In part 1 of Getting
To Know The Resolve 14 Collaborative Workflow, we explored
essential setup and the basics of using the collaborative features
of DaVinci Resolve 14.
前文中我们了解了达芬奇14版协同工作的基本设置和功能。
Reading about
the concepts is one thing seeing them in action is a different
thing entirely!
除了文字教程以外我们还可以看到实际操作演示。
Recently,
Mixing Light contributor Joey
D’Anna stopped by my studio (in real life we
work quite often together) and after
squeezing ourselves into the VO booth at my
facility, we put the collaborative workflow concepts of Part 1 into
action.
在视频中作者将会和他的小伙伴 Joey D'Anna
一起给大家演示前文提到的关于协同工作的一些点。
Here are some
of the things we cover:
以下是视频中演示的要点:

Additional
workflow considerations
工作流程中额外需要注意的事项
One thing not
covered in this Insight is
collaboration and the Fairlight page in Resolve 14.
本文并没有提到达芬奇14版的Fairlight页面以及其协同工作的内容。
To be honest,
the Fairlight page is still a work in progress and would be better
served once it’s properly built out and demoed in a collaborative
sense with an audio engineer who is more familiar
with the toolset. Hopefully, in a
future Insight,we
can do that.
实际上,Fairlight页面还是一个未完善开发的功能,一旦这部分功能完善后和声音部门的协作将会开展得更加地顺利。希望在未来我(作者)还可以撰文来给大家分享这一部分的内容。
Finally, this
is a pretty lengthy Insight
– clocking in at 25min. We
considered breaking it up, but the continuity of seeing the
workflow in action is important.
