Maybe I'm a bit thick. I follow your channel and love it - your explanations are usually clear, concise, and on point. But this one has me totally confused. You never really explain WHAT the BlackMagic Cloud thing is all about. So let me get this straight - you still have to send devices to a remote collaborator, except you're now sending an expensive BM Cloud Pod or Cloud Storage rather than a basic SSD? Somebody still has to use Internet connections to upload (slow) and then download (faster) media files, data files, project files etc anyway? I understand it can be all set up with Dropbox logins and shared folders all ready to go, but I'm still not clear how that is much different from a collaborator just signing into Dropbox to a shared folder and working from there?

Please keep in mind the title of this video. This is not a review of the unit. The angle of this video is why would someone still use this device when having all of the equipment needed for a post-production workflow. A few other videos will be out soon talking more about the devices.

So the better use case for this would probably be to have the drive locally, then have your editor access the proxies via the network to download the footage. From what I understand, the concept behind these drives is that they would act like a NAS, in that if you have remote access to the network, you can pull files off the drive or add files to the drive. Google Drive and Dropbox help simplify some of the file sharing aspect, but from what I understand, what a lot of people are doing is having the drive with the files stored locally, giving remote access to their editors, and their editors are working mainly with the proxies to get the guts of the edit done. All the project files are stored on the drive, the original video files, the proxies, and whatever else. In my opinion, this is BlackMagic's way of making a simplified NAS for their ecosystem.
When I saw the release presentation, the big thing that came to me was the ingest and proxy generation. As it syncs the proxies first and then slow drips the rest, editors could start right away while waiting for the raw files to follow after. Not counting that you could directly pull a drive from a Blackmagic camera or Atem mini and plug it in to the cloud pod to start syncing.

There's definitely a lot of different use cases for sure! I'd be interested in hearing from people that use them.

You could start syncing, but do hope that no one on your network deletes your footage "by mistake", with this device you should use a backup, just to make sure your footage is save
Still trying work this out. Do you think the best way to do remote color grading is still mailing media back and forth to the colorist?
Hey Jay, this is all super over my head. I have a KZread channel, and we want to begin to store our old files on hard drives to have if someone needed some old files in the future. Separately, I work with a couple of other collaborators and I travel a lot. I would love access to my files and the ability to share files without swapping hard drives. We aren't making crazy movies or something, I want it to operate like my personal google drive (some of my collaborators have a hard time downloading like 80 G files from Google Drive). No one wants to edit projects at the same time. Is this the best fit for me? Or do I just look for a NAS? This seems in line with my budget and I can attach cheap storage devices to it because my old videos aren't necessarily something of crazy value.
do you need to set the NAS drive as the footage source or are they block storage attached to the editor workstation ?
I want to bypass the 3rd party cloud so it just uploads to my private storage. I can configure and send out to on location shoots and they plug it in and ingest then it uploads direct to the company storage. Or a client that I work with regularly, I can send it to them they can upload to it or I put stuff on it but then it all stays internal and no 3rd party subscriptions or storage limitations.

that's called FTP, it's been used for over a decade. still one of the safest and fastest solutions out there.
You would rather send a 2400$ item through snailmail? Only because of settings? When was that great but computer illiterate editor born? If you are editing digital and cant use the internet or usb to transfer files.... Doesnt make sense. Also on the 8tb it seems the only usb port is labeled as for Ethernet use only? And it already lost an USB port compared to the cheaper one. And no item with that much lack of security is going on my network, specially with footage on it.
