  • bringing layered PSD files into FCP 6

    Posted by Tracy Phillips on November 29, 2007 at 3:42 am

    Hello all,
    I am trying to bring a layered PSD file into FCP 6 which I know can be done… but when I bring the PSD file into FCP, it does not reveal its layers. Any advice? And yes, I am saving my PSD files with the layers. I am using PSD 7.

    Thank you,
    FCPnewbie

    RGB
    8 Bit
    PSD

    Check Preferences and ensure maximize compatibility is checked in PS File Handling

    Import into FCP

    Double click to open sequence

    And make sure your PS files are RGB. FC do not accept YCMK.
