FCP 7 Log and Transfer Files
-
No, they were not yours. They were the FCP7 essentials at Lynda.com, which talks about log and transfer “from P2 cards”. I guess they could have meant log and transfer from a copy of the P2 card previously backedup to the harddisk, but I do not think they were very specific or I may have just missed that part of the tutorial.
I saw a thread about the same subject here that was several years old. So this issue must pop up here from time to time. Thanks for being patient. I do plan on watching your tutorial though. I got out my Barry Green book and downloaded the Panasonic P2 management software for the Mac. So I’m ready to do it right this time.
Thanks again.

yeah it’s easy to gloss over that part and true it’s not exactly spelled out as a requirement when you’re ingesting into FCP 7 for example. But personally I think file management before you begin actual editorial both in the field and in the edit room is a critical aspect of any file based workflow. We used to have film negative, then tapes as our backup by default. Now you have to do this yourself.
