  • Is it possible to import a Final Cut Pro 5 project timeline in the same way I do with MEdia100i

    Posted by Arnold Foote on December 11, 2005 at 6:05 pm

    As a newbie and working on my first HD project, I made a change from Media100i to the HD Final Cut 5. I use the AJA Kona2 with a Huge media Vault RX320. I only know one way to work… Cut my project in MEdia100 and export the project timeline for finishing in After Effects. This process gives you an individual layer for each clip from Media100 right in After Effects. I am quite comfortable in After Effects and I like this feature very much. Can someone explain to me how to make this happen when I have edited in Final Cut please. Is it possible at all? I have Motion but I have never used it so on this project I cannot experiment.

    Thanks,
    JJ

    You need to purchase the Automatic Duck plugin.

    It allows you to import an FCP sequence into AE.

    Click on the “automatic duck” link in my post.

    Is there also something to import Sony Vegas Files into AE, because I couldn’t find anything on the website. Does anyone know another company which sells a software to convert Vegas files into AE files ??

    Thanks.

    Googling “vegas” and “after effects” led me to this product by Forged Images:
    https://www.forgedimages.com/vegasimportorder.html

    I don’t know the product — I just Googled. 🙂
