  total newbie quicktime export question

  Posted by Mike Brownstein on December 23, 2008 at 5:10 am

  Hi,

  I’d like to export different sections of my movie (it’s 8 minutes long total) so I can show various sections to partners online–for example, just export from 01,00,04;24 through 01,00,09; 12. I’d like to export it as a quicktime movie. Is there a way to say (as in AE), export from frame (so and so) through frame (so and so.)

  I’ve searched the manual and can’t find how to do this (I’m sure it’s totally easy and staring me in the face, but the manual doesn’t seem to address this—as far as I can see–again, I’m sure I’m missing something.)
  Thanks in advance.
  Mike

  [Mike Brownstein] “s there a way to say (as in AE), export from frame (so and so) through frame (so and so.)”

  Yes there’s a pretty easy way to do this.

  1. Make sure your sequence window is active, then park your playhead on the TC frame where you want the exported piece to start.

  2. Hit the “I” key to make an in point. Now place your playhead where you want the exported movie to end. Hit the “O” key to create an out point.

  3. Now go to the File menu and choose Export>Quicktime Movie. Export at current settings, name your clip and FCP will only export the piece between the in and out points.
