RED Alert!™ reads the metadata recorded for each color correction parameter by the RED
ONE™ camera. Values can be adjusted by dragging the appropriate slider, or by entering a new
numeric value in its box. Clicking R will reset the value back to its default setting. Clicking M will
restore the recorded metadata value. R ALL or M ALL will affect all parameters, GRADE will re-
vert all values back to those last used in your color grade.
Presets may be saved in RED Alert!™ that allow a consistent “look” to be established across
multiple clips, or alternative color treatments may be made for the same clip.
Note: Looks may be transferred to the camera by entering RED Alert!™ values into the UI.
The image may be displayed in a variety of color spaces. For most applications, select RED-
space. For special effects select Linear, and for Digital Intermediates select a Log.
The timeline control plays the selected clip and marks IN and an OUT point, between which the
TIFF or DPX file sequence will be extracted. For QuickTime reference movies the entire clip will
be referenced, as trimming will be performed downstream. If a single frame is to be exported,
press Save 4K or 2K DPX, or 4K or 2K TIFF. If a sequence of frames is desired, press Save Se-
quence 4K or 2K DPX, or 4K or 2K TIFF.
