February 13, 2010 at 4:18 am in reply to: Converting FC Project sequence to a JPEG 2000 fileYou can export with quicktime conversion and specify JP2k there. Do they want an image sequence or a movie file? I think you can do both, but I’m not near a Mac to check right now.

Do you see this on your broadcast monitor? Only look at a calibrated broadcast monitor. All else is false. If you do not have a broadcast monitor, your FCP manual has a series of diagrams explaining how to connect one.

Wow, indeed! Could stereoscopic capture be far behind?

You will have to cut a matte out by hand, frame by frame. Google “rotoscope” or “rotoscoping”.

February 11, 2010 at 1:11 am in reply to: Mixing frame rates: Apple’s culpability in end user confusionI’ve got news for you, Alan, plenty of people were doing this before Apple decided to endorse it with the “Open Timeline”. People have cut entire features in the wrong timebase, the wrong resolution, the wrong trousers, the wrong shoe on the wrong foot, etc. Look back for threads on how “the entire timeline needs rendering after every cut.” They go back as far as there’s been a forum for FCP on the COW, and the answer then & now is the same.

February 11, 2010 at 1:05 am in reply to: Converting 1080p 23.98 to 25 fps for editing in FCPThe Cinema Tools manual is an online PDF that you access through the Help menu (likewise for the Compressor manual, BTW).
CT has a batch conform feature. You point it to the folder that contains the media you want to conform and it will do all of the files.
The conversion is very quick, there’s no transcoding, it merely changes the speed that the media plays back at.
But the conversion alters the actual media file, so if you want to keep an original 23.98 copy, you’ll need to copy the files before you run the batch conform.
For more information, I will refer you to the afore mentioned CT manual.

[Randy Hopkins] “$500+ software isn’t an option in this case, though I appreciate the suggestion. “
So, what you’re telling me is that your project isn’t really important enough to be worth $500.

You can export a batch list. Look it up in your FCP manual or do a search here for step-by-step instructions.
