  Transfer Project from FCP to Avid

  Posted by Rocco Rocco on May 19, 2007 at 12:49 am

  We have a project with 1TB of HD footage from P2 Cards in Quicktime files and an organized, structured Final Cut project with several simple sequences (no plugins, or complex stuff)

  We might have to move everything over from FCP to Avid (for various reasons ;o)

  What’s the best approach for this task?

  I assume Automatic Duck is the only way to go. If we use Automatic Duck, will we have to convert the QTs to OMFs as well?

  Thanks for any input / suggestions etc.

  You are in a world of hurt do to P2.

  Automatic duck will get the project over, even though many things will be missing.

  If you still ahve the original P2 clips, you can copy them into the Avid media files/mxf folder.

  If you didn’t change the names on the clips in FCP. they MIGHT relink. I’m very doubtful of this, but weirder things have happened.

  Meant, “Due to P2.” :-[
