OH YES! THANK YOU. The second workflow (real proxies) is def. the best.. But yeah, I really had no idea how to use the in-camera generated proxies from my FX3.. now I can use the full power of this feature.

Oh my gosh. If only this had come out a month ago this would have saved me soooo much headache. Will definitely be using this from now on!! Thank you Mark as always!

Ripple Training once again having the easiest and most helpful FCPX tutorials on YouTube. Have been learning for years and have no plans to stop. Thank you, Mark!

This is the best and most clear video I have seen regarding a7s3 proxy work flow! Thank you so much! Very helpful!

[salahsalem]

you just made my life so much easier, thank you so much

[BrianSladek]

WOW! This was so wonderfully explained and detailed. I had no idea how to use the in camera proxies on my new FX6 camera. This saved me having to upgrade my computer! Thanks so much

I have to stop and say THANK YOU for this!! I'm a relative newbie in this space, even though i've been working with Final Cut Pro for years lol I have been searching for a way to understand this for long. Not only did this educate me on proxy file management it also gave me a great tip on my FCP workflow as well. Thank you !!!

You all are so awesome! thanks again for an informative video!

[CynthiaHauu]

Clear and concise, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

I almost never work with proxies because performance isn't usually an issue on my 2017 iMac, even with 4K 10bit media. Still, I really appreciate this explanation of various proxy workflows, and I can imagine some scenarios where I'd find it handy. FWIW, I almost didn't watch this one because I don't have a camera that can generate proxies... but I'm glad I did watch it!

[LanzaroteShowcase]

Great, that really helped. I have a workflow that needed this, thank you!

[plaingirllifeproductions]

Thank you! This was incredibly helpful before I dove into a rather daunting project!

[Jacksonsvisuals]

Just got the A1. This was very helpful. Thank you!

[luisrubio]

Been editing with FCPX for 5 years and i always wondered what these proxies are for. Thank you! But i prefer going with the Option 1 as it saves time and space for me. Also my Macbook aint too strong so this is very good. Less stress for my macbook when editing small size proxies.

Great video Mark! I use the relink all the time to swap between base-graded files from Resolve to actually graded clips down the road, but didn't realize you could do the same with proxies! This is huge, especially considering the 10 bit A7siii files aren't as buttery as other formats. I'm going to try this out with the camera generated proxies now. Love this tip!

[whereisbraga]

I'm a slow learner so imma have to rewatch this over and over. I have a 2015 MacBook air and my next camera might be an a7siii or ev e1.
