  • How to transfer source file from a clip???

    Posted by Michael Holder on October 3, 2018 at 5:06 pm

    We are at the grading stage and the colorist said that AAF export is missing one shot, she asked me to transfer her the source file for this clip.

    I’ve never worked with a colorist before, I don’t know what she means or how to do it. Can you PLEASE HELP ME ☹

    In the bin, right-click on the clip and choose REVEAL FILE. This will open the folder on the desktop that has that clip, and highlight it. Copy that clip to a drive, or upload it for them to download.

    If your online sequence has online media then reveal file will give you the Avid MXF media.
    But if the colourist did the conform then you may need to find the source clip for the missing shot and supply that.
    Located the missing shot in your sequence. match frame and then find bin. Now for that clip enable the source file and source path columns to show the file to supply.
