Everyone knows that Vegas is where you edit and do light compositing and CC.
But for heavier CC/composite/animation work, I've been finding myself turning to AE CS4.
I'm going for a very certain look and have about 40 clips, so each will have to be heavily CC'd.
What is the best workflow, assuming I want to do my rough and final edit in Vegas?
Option 1: Do it all in AE - yuk.
Option 2: Edit in Vegas, take notes to the Ins and Outs and reproduce the work in AE
Option 3: CC every shot in AE, render out (as Cineform, in this case) and rebuild in Vegas.
Option 4: Edit in Vegas, save the project as some kind of format that AE can open, Open that project and CC there, then render out the final file.
I welcome your input, advice and ideas! Thanks very much in advance!
