Let me introduce you to a little thing called media production workflow, where there are over 500 different file formats in active use, and getting it right forms the basis of most links in a chain hundreds of links long.
You start sending me botched files with the wrong codecs and see if I don’t find another subcontractor immediately.
I thought we were talking about media production but your goalposts are over there in the playground.
Botched means I asked for more industry standard production files and you gave me something else, because you don’t understand ROI in industry. Equipment is cheap compared to time. Just use the tools the job requires.
I used to teach guerilla filmmaking back in the day of “desktop video is the next big thing” so I see where you’re coming from, even if you hide your ignorance about the work behind ideals. Knock yourself out learning to edit with a cheap gaming rig and the free version of Resolve, make cool stuff and upload, start a wedding video business.
But get work in a large production as a contractor? The tools are cheap compared to time and amortized quickly in taxes. Buy the tool the job requires. Skills should be platform agnostic.

Maybe. You think I’m getting ProRes RAW files from your Win11/Premiere rig? Fired.
