script
Posted by Mark Cookman on May 3, 2006 at 7:37 amI regularly import a short .mov sequence and then take a freeze of each frame into the timeline, its quite repetitive, how should I go about automating this?
regards

May 3, 2006 at 1:47 pmUse Quicktime Pro to export the .mov as an Image Sequence and import those separate images into Final Cut. You can change the default length of imported stills in the User Preferences. Click on the Editing tab at the top of the window and the first box is “Freeze/Still Duration”.
Hope this helps!

Creating an image sequence as suggested in the other reply is a good idea.

If you were really clever you could set up a template which would do most of the hard work for youPeter
