That is great advice, thanks Jamie. That explains why when I’ve used the original approach before things have been completely out of sync etc. Although it’s a bit of a pain at least the method you’ve indicated will save a lot of heartache later on. I just thought doing that was the slow, amateur way of doing things but I’m relieved to hear that it’s not 😀

thanks again

Thanks for the reply Steve 🙂

You would have thought there would be easier ways to do this. Looks like an upgrade to Premiere is on the cards.

Have a great day

Thanks for that but I was kind of hoping for a bit more info from people who use it. Thats kind of like a sales sheet. How does it handle intense comps from After Effects? Can you playback a whole timeline with AE comps in?

Thanks Jack and Juan some good points there. Yeah you’re right I was including the whole project.

I think once the video is signed off deleting the ProRes files is possibly the best route. Then if I need to do any edits in the future I can just transcode the files again.

Thanks guys

Thanks

Awesome thanks for the tip, it’s so much easier than having to move to exactly where the marker is. Still not as good as AE but this is a HUGE timesaver.

Thank you very much

Pete I only just saw your message. As you can see its all sorted now and it really is dumb, although Im so tired after so many sleepless nights preparing for this that its slightly understandable that I would make such a mistake.

You are right though, I need to manage my bosses expectations. Im going to ask for some training on the audio sides of things.

Tonight Im going to be in bed by 10 finishing off the Steve Jobs biography whilst having a cup of tea and get a good nights sleep.

Thanks for all your help guys 🙂

Its sorted! When I tell you what it was you’re never going to believe how dumb it was. It does show that 2 sleepless nights really does make you less alert etc

Basically I recorded it on the left channel and due to the ways its all set up at work I listen to it on the right hand side… the left hand side is fine, other than being a little low and the mic picking up a few rustles its fine. I will try and clean the audio up in soundtrack pro but its a much better solution to what I thought the problem was.

It still backs up what you said: with no experience things like this WILL happen. Next time I’ll be more prepared.

Thanks for all your help… Im not as dumb as I sound (no pun intended)
