    Hi All i have worked with FCP for a long time and i have had to do a job on avid i managed to get the edit done now i need to grade in apple color.
    I have used automatic duck to export an aaf and i can get it to open in FCP but how do i get my media in. Any workflow tips appreciated. ideally i would like to convert all my media from avid to apple proress and then grade in color. Thanks Emmet

    Did you watch the video tutorial on the Automatic Duck website? It explains how to get a sequence with media from Avid to FCP. Once you do that you will have to media manage and recompress as ProRes 422.

    HI Shane,

    I’ll need to do the exact thing with Automatic Duck in about a week so, as always, thanks for your willingness to share your experience.

    Best,
    Pat
