  putting a finished FCP project online

  Posted by Chris Rust on April 9, 2005 at 5:41 am

  I have a client who, now that I have completed his project, wants me to email the project to certain other parties for upload to his website. This is something I have not done before and have NO CLUE how to do this, or even if it’s possible. I have converted the project to MPEG for DVD burning–what else do I have to do? Thanks…

  In FCP use “export using quicktime conversion” and select one of the web presets.

  There are any number of combinations to choose under the various the settings options.
  Below is a set that I have used for emailing FCP files and have had few problems or complaints on the receiving end.
  You can start with these and try an export, view it, and make any changes you think you’d like (including the “SIZE” setting.)
  You can then just drop the new file right into an open email window on the Mac and send it.
