Working with RED Media
With Media Composer 5.0, RED ONE camera files can also be read and
edited using AMA. The RED ONE is a very high-performance digital cine
camera with the quality of 35mm film and generates a 2K to 4.5K full-res-
olution REDCODE RAW (.R3D) file. Media is stored on a REDFlash card
or a RED drive.
Yo u c onn ec t t he R E D d ri v e d ire ct ly t o y ou r c omp ut er v ia a U S B or
FireWire port, or you can insert the RED card into the RED camera and
connect the camera your computer. The drive or card mounts as an indi-
vidual media drive on your desktop. You can link to a specific R3D file on
the volume or link to an entire volume using AMA.
After you link the clips through AMA, you can change and fine-tune the clip
color settings in the Clip Parameters dialog box.

The RED camera records a unique clip name and creates multiple files
including the REDCODE RAW files and an optional QuickTime refer-
ence file placed in a clip folder (.RDC).
The system names clips by Camera Letter + Reel Number + Clip
Number + Month + Day + a two-digit alphanumeric random number,
such as A001_C002_
0502A6.RDC.

A = camera A

001 = reel 001

C002 = clip 002

0502 = May 2

Each clip folder (.RDM) is at the root directory. Each of these
folders includes the .RDC folder that contains the video, audio,
and metadata files:
