I am testing my new, easy and pleasant workflow which is:

DNG >>> resolve  - BMD profile, highlights recovery, Hunter's LUT, >>> export DNxHD 444 >>> Premiere - very fast and fluid editing >>> Selecting all - replacing with AE composition >>> stabilizing, adding effects (optical flares, additional CC with looks, colorista II etc) >>> final h.264 export from Premiere.

This workflow for me has the best quality/speed ratio for now. Final image quality is awesome  thanks to very high quality 444 10bit footage which works flawlessly in premiere.

I dont use XMP export from premiere back to resolve because i was having some problems with transitions. I am not an expert in CC so for now I prefer easier ways like looks etc.

EDIT: when you are making those XML roundtrips how are you guys dealing with effects like stabilizing footage, adding flares or other plugins?  I suppose there is no way to make such things in davici via XML so you have to back to AE anyway and make final export from there, am i right? In such case the fact is that your final movie is not from resolve but AE/premiere, right?

I'm trying this exact workflow right now, and am having an issue... When I import the DNxHD clips into premier, they come in but when I play them back I just get a white screen... what I doing wrong? I've installed the DNxHD codec, not sure what else I could be doing wrong?

Any  help would be massively appreciated!

Hey all, new to the forum and hope to be of help to others one day and make some cool friends.

I had a question about a windows workflow. (I'm not very technical just so you're aware)

Here's what I'm doing right now:

1. Record RAW
2. Convert to DNG
3. Creating Proxies/Reel names in Davinci Resolve & adding Hunter's LUT
4. Exporting DNxHD 444 to use with Premier Pro

...and I'm hitting a wall here. Whenever I import the new DNxHD into Premier, the clips are just blank white screens. No video... I have installed the AVID codecs to allow me to use DNxHD, but am having no luck in actually getting the videos to play in Premier.

Could somebody shed some light?

The problem I'm having really is that I can't render out to ProRes from Davinci (on Windows), so I've noticed some folk rendering DNxHD and tried that - which is working in the sense that Premier imports them... but when playing the files, I get the white screen. So I'm stuck.

My specs:
Windows 7
i7 processor with 16GB ram
GT560 Ti Graphics Card

Would really greatly appreciate any help. Loving the quality on RAW and can't wait to use this on some client work.
