Prores and RAW shooting and Editing Question?

PostSun Sep 01, 2013 11:34 am

I'll have BMCC MFT camera and would like to know all details of raw and prores shooting and editing details for a 2 hour feature film and 10 min short film.

1. How much will be 1 minute footage size if we shoot in prores?

2. How much will be 1 minute footage size if we shoot in RAW?

3. How much TB external HDD do I need to EDIT 60 minutes of prores video?

4. How much TB external HDD do I need to EDIT 60 minutes of RAW video?

Thanks

ProRes 422 HQ 1080p24 = 24.7MB/sec
ProRes 422 HQ 1080p24 = 25.8MB/sec

So about 1.5GB/min

5MB/frame. Do the math:
24p = 5MB x 24 x 60 = 7200MB
25p = 5MB x 25 x 60 = 7500MB

Depends on your shooting ratio. You end film might be 60min but how much footage did you shoot? How many takes did your actors take to get it right? Etc

Same as above.
