This guide walks you through how to apply pre-configured deliverables when submitting a VFX Pull in Content Hub. Before getting started, make sure your deliverables are already set up, if not follow the Configure VFX Pull Deliverables guide first.
For this example, we'll be working with two deliverables that apply to all clips in the submission. Note that filtering is disabled on both, this means every clip in the EDL will go through the same processing.
Create your EDL according to your deliverables. Our deliverables will use the RED marker in the EDL as the output name for both the EXR and QT deliverable so our markers in the EDL reflect that. Since in this example we'll configure 2 deliverables for the entire submission, and both have the same locator as output naming, both deliverables will be called the same.
Open the VFX Pulls page in Content Hub and select Create a VFX Pull.
Enter your desired recipient.
Deliverables can be enabled or disabled in each submission, this way you can mix and match the processing depending on the needs of each specific list of shots. These can also be enabled or disabled by default in the deliverable configuration page.
Select the check box next to your desired VFX Pull Deliverable Setting to enable them for this pull.
In this case we're selecting just the two deliverables at the bottom of the list, so all the events in the submission will get the processing configured in the selected deliverables.
Drag and drop your EDL and select Create.
In the Deliverables with output names column you can see how each event has the same processing applied, and the output name was taken from the pre-defined marker color. In this case both deliverables are sourcing the name from the same field in the list, so everything lines up!
Select the VFX pull event to show a sidebar. Here you can see the configuration that will be applied to each deliverable.
To see a detailed breakdown of your settings per deliverable, select the i icon.
Once you've confirmed everything looks correct, select Submit.
Add any additional notes if needed, then select Confirm to send the pull.
Configuring Resolutions Per Event via Multiple deliverables
This guide walks you through how to submit a VFX Pull where different clips within the same list are processed differently. This is achieved by using multiple deliverables and filtering the list by marker color, so each clip in your EDL is automatically routed to the correct output configuration.
Before you begin: This guide assumes your deliverables are already configured. If they aren't, follow the Configure VFX Pull Deliverables guide first. For these examples we’ll use the ‘filter list’ feature on the deliverable settings. That way each deliverable will filter out the incoming list and apply different configurations to different events within a submission.
Prepare your EDL that matches your Deliverable configuration. For example, RED for full resolution and YELLOW for UHD with framing protection.
Open the VFX Pulls page in Content Hub and select Create a VFX Pull.
Enter your desired recipient.
Before proceeding, confirm that all your pre-configured deliverables are enabled. Content Hub will automatically filter the EDL based on marker colors and apply the correct name source for each deliverable. If you need to adjust your deliverable setup, follow this guide.
Drag and drop your EDL and select Create.
Once the pull is created, locate the Deliverables with Output Resolution column in the pull view. Check that the correct deliverable has been applied to each clip. You can also verify the output name for each event. In this example, one clip will be processed at full resolution (RED marker) and another will be scaled to UHD with framing decision protection preserved (YELLOW marker).
Select any event in the table to open the sidebar and review the resolution settings that will be applied to that clip. For Event 1 (tagged RED): the clip will be pulled at source resolution, as that's the processing assigned to the RED marker deliverable. The QuickTime will share the same name because the marker and the source clip field contain the same information.
Select Event 2 to review its settings. Because this clip is tagged YELLOW, it will use a different deliverable, the output will calculate framing decision protection against the source resolution rather than rendering at full resolution.
Once you've confirmed everything looks correct, select Submit.
Add any additional notes if needed, then select Confirm to send the pull.
Editing Deliverables When Submitting
This guide walks you through how to make per-event adjustments to your deliverables directly from the submission view. You can edit the Output Name, Number of Handles, Start Frame, and Framing on a clip-by-clip basis without affecting your saved deliverable configuration..
Select the event you wish to edit by clicking.
In the side panel you will see a card for each deliverable that you are submitting.
Select Edit Metadata.
Make the changes you would like and select Update. Remember this will only affect this one pull event on this specific submission.
