The Flare workflow is based on shared folders. Any media placed in the shared folders becomes accessible to remote workstations that connect to the project. Shared folders enable Flame and Flare to quickly and conveniently share media, allowing you to spend more time on creative tasks and less time managing your media.
Placing media in a shared folder automatically grants read access to any remote workstations connected to the project. The Flare operator can access the media and start working immediately after connecting to the Flame project. Once finished, the Flare operator needs to save the resulting media back to the shared folder. To do this he must acquire write access.
Write access locks the folder so that only the user having acquired write access can modify the folder contents (i.e. write to the folder). Read access is still available to other remote workstations connected to the project. Once the media is saved, the user can disable write access, enabling other remote workstations to obtain write access and modify the content.
