Takes RED .RMD files from source folder full of RMD files (i.e. flat folder containing nothing but .RMDs), and copies them to their associated .RDC folders located in a different location. This is an annoying workaround to DaVinci Resolve not copying .RMD files along with their associated .R3D files when doing a media consolidation.

for RDC in $FOLDERS
    do 
        FOLDERBASE=$(echo ${RDC} | cut -c 1-16)
        #echo ${RDC}
        cp "$RMDFILES/$FOLDERBASE.RMD" "$RDCFOLDER/$RDC/"
        #echo $FOLDERBASE
