Hasta La Motion!

I wanted to start to get into editing… I am mainly a lighting and DP guy. I was pricing a workstation to get started and I was looking for something PC based with a controller (so I can have a pseudo-lustre setup) . I want to focus on Color Correction and finishing mainly. I stumbled across a program called Scratch which can be used with Tangent Devices Wave controller. The only other color controllers I have seen only work with Mac by Euphonix.

Also the only price I have seen from Assimilate is about 11k for the Rocket Fuel package which has a video card, the Quadro FX 3800 included which I don’t need, and the RED Rocket, which is interesting, and I will look into, but also not on my top priority list. Other prices I have seen for just the software is around 45k which doesn’t make much sense to me… Does anyone know how much just the software costs?

I was thinking of having Avid for editing Nuke for Composite work Scratch for CC and Maya and the Adobe package as well… My GF is a graphics designer and I wanted to have something we can both work on.
