Hello

Basically no soft comps. 

Quick example of how it may look at our place. 

1. Simple conform with 3 tracks from edl. Track 2 and 3 are VFX tracks. Conform 
source around those shots, Alexa prores 4444 or xq.  Link reference and copy 
the cuts around the VFX shots to it (only those and not complete edit, that'll 
sink nS). Name reference and VFX shots. 

2. Export new source to 16 bit dpx into our shot structure with help of the 
templates. Also export reference to same structure. 

2. Build track from export tags on those exports. So now I'll have VID2_DPX and 
VID3_DPX tracks for all shots and a new REF_JPG track as well. If your base 
conform had many tracks this can be sort of a pita, but it is what it is... 

3. From those new track export again, now with a template that creates the 
.nk's and sets up the scripts semi properly. The nS exported trees sort of suck 
so there's always a manual cleanup afterwards.  

4. After comp was done we previously built track from that export as well and 
that'll became the VFX track. Which later was exported with a copy exporter to 
grade. This step has more and more became a manual process by assistant though 
because nS is so damn unstable and slow so we try to keep away from it if we 
can. I'm the only nS operator at our place and I have too much other stuffs to 
do and I've already hulk smashed my quota of keyboards for 2016. =/

Cheers
