MpegStreamclip (free) should work, just open up the VOB files and export as QuickTime.

Nattress G film has a preset for old film which you can tweak a lot.

Capturing to ProRes (which you should be doing anyway) will do what you want.

If the person is placed on a background like this, no alpha channel is needed. It’s just a regular movie and whatever format your Web people use will work.

You need a Time Base Corrector. There is a cheap one at Markertek.

I don’t know of ANY text tool that doesn’t have a button to select left, right or centered. FCPs default in the regular text tool is center.

Nick,
If you used the shadows inside Title 3D, don’t, they suck. Much better to open the clip in the motion tab and add FCP’s shadows.

You don’t need the Media Manager for this. All done in the Browser. BTW ProRes capture is a capture now function, not a batch process.

Stewart,
This shows you how, only note that the last step of renaming clips is more streamlined and you do it from the browser.

Not sure if your drive is fast enough, but give it a go.
Yes, capture the whole tape, FCP will start a new clip for each time the camera was turned on. Then you simply open each clip in the viewer from the browser, and if you want to keep the clip, type in a new name in the browser. I open the capture scratch folder so I can toss clips I don’t want. then delete the clip reference in the browser. When you are done re-naming, select all the clips in the browser and right click rename, file to match clip, and you will see that all your WT clips are changed.
Have a wonderful day.

Motion or After Effects are much better suited for this.
