  FC2 to AE CS3 and back with no loss

  Posted by Andrej Spilevoj on July 14, 2008 at 9:08 am

  Dear Team, Could you please help me solve this issue. I use FC2 and AE CS3. Could anybody post a suggestion on how to migrate fast and without loosing quality of the footage. I found an XML suggestion but it was too complicated and explained not in the detailed way. Could you help please, as I think it is a common issue and can be helpful for other guys too.

  Yes, this is a common issue and the answer that is given most often is the Automatic Duck ProImporter for CS3. You export an XML from FCP. You import that XML into AE via the Duck. Your entire timeline opens up, with handles intact for all clips, ready for compositing.

  You can’t get any better than the original resolution.
