Proxy Workflow

n essential post-production strategy that involves editing with low-resolution "proxy" files instead of the original high-resolution camera footage (e.g., 5K RED files). This significantly reduces the computational demand on the editing system, allowing for smoother playback and a more responsive creative process. The final, high-resolution version of the film is then created by "conforming" the edit decisions made with the proxies back to the original source media.
