  • Batch export naming and creating FCP with image automatically inserted

    Posted by Mike Brown on December 15, 2013 at 2:52 am

    Hey all, I have two questions that I’m hoping someone can help me with.

    When I batch export a bunch of projects, I have the opportunity to set the name of each output file. Is there a way to automatically have this re-naming be the same name as the project that’s being exported? The stupid current system makes me have to single click on the name of the exported project and then re-type the same name in. Is there a way to automate this?

    My company makes a certain type of video for clients. For each video, a title card PNG image file of the person’s name has to be manually dragged into the FCP project timeline. The name/card info is on our company database. Is there a way to automatically insert this image into a FCP project, so that when I download the FCP project from our online system, that person’s title card is already inserted into the project?

    I know both questions may be a bit confusing and/or poorly written. Let me know if you all think there may be some solutions!

    Thanks very much!

    when you batch export, the name of the item is used for the export
    maybe you are not naming your sequences?
