Oh I’m holding out for the TV as well, just there’s not any info on most of the 2017 models just yet. The monitor won’t be out till Q3 of this year, which I’m sure will also be when the new TV models arrive.

And idk, I feel like the rate at which these standards and technologies are changing I personally will just stick with an LED for now over OLED. I might change my mind. Having a new display monitor is my first priority. I myself don’t necessarily feel I’ll need the TV till I’m further along in the project enough to do proper full playbacks of latter drafts of the grades.

And surely, I can focus my time on getting to know VA well and making an even better source to work my grade from.

Also, determined to lessen any unexpected delays, I’m sure to set up for myself a proper RAID setup to ensure I don’t lose any of my project files. The files can get quite big. Each film in the 12 bit 4K lossless form is over 2TB. Meaning 8TB minimum free storage just for the raw source material alone, not to count the space needed for saving renders and such. I plan to render out some large master files when the project is complete as well as means for archiving.

Of course for distribution, file sizes should be far more reasonable. There will be a 1080p BD compliant, HDR10 4K Bluray compliant, and smaller “streaming size” 1080p and 4K versions.

Workprints will most likely be in the smaller formats, until the sort of “final workprint”.
