Creating list of all used media including total duration
Hi all-
I’m currently in the final steps of a project of creating 15 short documentary films ranging from 2-10 minutes long. By the end of the project, I need to make a report of all of the b-roll used in each of the films, their duration, as well as the total duration spanning all 15 of the films. In some cases though, there is duplicate b-roll used in more than one film, and while this does still need to be reported, it would not go towards the total duration.
Is there a way for Final Cut to generate a legible list like this, to take out the process of adding up the clips manually? I have tried to use the “Find” command to find all used media, but it seems to have difficulty in picking out multiple subclips used from one master clip. I also get some strange results where some media is popping up in the list as being used when it clearly hasn’t been, but I think that’s another issue…
If it makes any difference, I’m running FC 6.0.5, not 7.x.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Thanks everyone.

In your timeline, select all, then drag that to a bin. You can export a batch list from there if you want.

YES! You export an XML of your project, and then use this software called Sequence Clip Reporter:

We use this to track all of our stock footage for ordering purposes. VERY handy.
