Yeah right, fear of not meeting deadlines, lol.
Seriously, manuals are tough to learn from, at least that is the case for me. I find videos tuts much much more entertaining, less boring and very informative.
Anyway, on this one, I have no choice.

Thanks guys for your input.

Ok Shane, thanks alot. I will look into that as well.

Oh Thanks Ed, I am not that great at reading boring tedious manuals ( I only study with videos tuts), but on this one, I will make a big exception.
Thanks again for the tip.

Oh this suggestion sounds interesting. I will try it.
When I go back from PS to FCP, will frames lose resolution? I believe I need to keep the same res that the frames have in FCP.
After PS treatment, what I an also do is save all the frames as a sequence of individual stills and import them to FCP, without a QT Pro drive thru. Will that work??
It is too bad that there is no such thing as FCP-PS SEND, as do n FCP-SOUNDTRACK and FCP-Motion, or FCP-Shake. (send to, open in editor, etc)

No, I do not have AE.

Thanks Sante, I actually thought about your suggestion, but I couldn’t implement it because as the camera tilts down to follow the talent, the boompole follows, so no static frame. That is why I have to go frame by frame ad get rid of the pole.

Thanks a lot Shane. I actually own a Shake 4.1 but I never got to learn how to use it, no cheap video tutorials, perhaps I will buy the apple book for Shake training.
