  • Exporting on screen notes for composer

    Posted by John Keating on January 19, 2017 at 9:34 pm

    I am working with a composer on my soundtrack and I have used the markers to create them. Can create an export that makes them pop up when appropriate?

    Other workflow recommendations are appreciated.

    You’ll have to add TITLES to the picture if you want them to see notes. Markers won’t pop up…won’t transfer in any way…in an exported file.

    What I do I provide timecodes and then my notes. “Here I want the Music to crescendo! Here I want the music to hit, then fall to a low drone, then slowly build.” And I always ask them to refer to the temp mix….because I used it for a reason.

    There are some external tools that might help. In this scenario, this should take an EDL with locators and convert it to Avid DS SubCap which you can use as an overlay in the video:
