Got any questions about LucidLink?? Fire them at me below ⬇
This is AMAZING... I wish this existed much earlier... I am working as a Technical Director and Live VIRTUAL Event Producer which means that we are hosting Live Events, and me as a producer, I am based in Europe, some of our tour guides are in the USA, our hosts are from the Netherlands, so we need sometimes to insert some files during the event (Pictures, videos, graphics, etc)... BUT, it is super challenging, me as a host of the stream (OBS), If I start to download some big files like videos, it can cause a big trouble to the stream (lag, buffer, sync off, etc) due to the downloads I am making behind... THIS CAN BE A LIFE CHANGER!
I have so many people that need something like this. Thank you for sharing this Alex and Alex lol... Looking forward to connect with both of you as this can be life-changing for so many directors like me and I believe a lot of content creators!
Hey Bob, so glad that you can see the benefits for your workflow. I'd definitely advise checking out my other video on LucidLink (th-cam.com/video/Ufi3ya0YDrc/w-d-xo.html) for more info, but also 100% take advantage of the free trial and the you can test your own workflows and see for yourself how powerful LucidLink can be :)
@@AlexPettitt Thank you so much!
He made an excelent demo. A truly powerful approach to collaborative editing.
Yeah completely agree :) There is so much power in these types of collaborative workflows!
Cannot wait to give this a try!
I have a number of questions. Such as edits done potentially same time. Not yet uploaded seems to be there could be split brain effect especially if it’s transparent on applications used.
amazing. they re-invented NFS ;-)
This looks like a super charged cloud based NAS! I’m confused about what it will cost, was not very clear on their website. Do you know?
It's $80 per Terabyte per month and that get's you 5 users. For each additional user after that it's $10. Hope this helps
@@AlexPettitt thank you!
Amazing. One question. If someone is to export from the Premise timeline, will it pull from the raw files or proxies for the export? With proxies toggled on that is.
A normal workflow will pull from the raw.
As long as the RAWs are linked to the proxies and available it will act exactly the same as a regular 'local' workflow :)
Do they have some sort of lock out feature if someone is already accessing a project file?
I believe that would all be managed by the NLE you’re using. For example DaVinci has timeline locking :)
Yes, LucidLink supports file locking and also in the case of Adobe, supports the native project locking features available across the creative cloud suite. For Premiere specifically we support individual project locking and Adobe Premiere Productions locking too.
do you need a main pc having all the data on it? or are you limited by the storage of your pc?
The data is in the cloud - the LucidLink client on your PC will use as much local storage as you give it (e.g. 5GB)
@@grigorovludmil uhm so it's not a solution for a team project archive (each project beign at least 50GB) as at some point when the archive will grow, it will outrun the single machine's memory of each member of the team. So for example if memebers woek on a laptop with 1TB ssd you will never be able to work on more than 20 projects?
How much are you relying on the speed of your network though?
Depends on your workflow - if you pin the data you work with in the local cache you will only stream the changes. If you constantly download/upload huge amounts of data you will depend on the network a lot. There are in-app mechanisms to control the network usage if needed. The app also predicts what might be needed and prefetches it so combined with the cache it truly becomes a magical experience for regular workflows.
I assume that the final editor before exporting would want to pin (download) the relevant files before exporting?
Its not required for them to. It would really depend on their internet connection :)
You can do without it, but it makes a massive difference in the export times to pin the project media.
Really it depends how much of the media is used in the sequence. Pinning will bring down all the blocks for a file even if only a small part of it is used in the sequence so it might be unnecessary to pin each entire file. Imagine working on a 3 minute sequence of a 4 camera multi-cam shoot of a football game (which would be 3 mins of video instead of 4 x 90 mins of video). Exporting the sequence will bring down the data anyway (and only the data that's used across the sequence) at the speed of your download so could actually be quicker. Playing the sequence would do the same thing and you might find playing through faster than real-time (L) would bring most of the data down due to how LucidLink prefetches the data "around" the data that the application requests. You could also use the LucidLink panel to pre-cache just the sequence clip ranges (not the same as pinning as doesn't bring down all the data for each file in the sequence). The panel is not covered here, but check out Alex's other video on that: th-cam.com/video/Z0m0CWv09t4/w-d-xo.html
@@AlexFerris-LucidLink thanks for the info! Merry Christmas!
What is the internet requirments needed?
It depends on the type of media you're working with. I've been able to work with 1080p ATEM recordings with LucidLink with my standard home internet without any issues at all :)
Im in a remote spot, with only 10MB download internet, would it work for me?@@AlexPettitt
What about 4k footage? I super interested. @@AlexPettitt
Can we use external drives though?
Yes, you can. Just go to the app settings and point Lucid to the external drive - this can be done both for the cache and the mount point (so full control basically).
