    [Daniel Jimenez] “how should i create this proxies??”

    Import the full res footage. Then use the MEDIA MANAGER and the RECOMPRESS option.

    [Daniel Jimenez] “which program should i use??”

    FCP. Anything else and you are looking at a lot of work, and a lot of issues reconnecting the media.

    [Daniel Jimenez] ” is there any log and transfer for alexa footage??”

    ALEXA raw? Or is it being shot ProRes? If ProRes, then L&T isn’t needed, it’s already in the format needed. If Raw…then the camera should be making the proxies itself.

    the FCP preset, while labeled 24p, has a frame rate of 23.98.

    you need to duplicate the pre-set, change the frame rate to 24, and use that to export.

    cheers,
