Yes I can see your point, but it also seems if you’re working alone, you have to be a jack of all trades; technology can impede even the most talented. Although we can do amazing digital work on the desktop, the learning curve is steep and diverse.

Thank you Ron – I appreciate your expert advice.

Can someone recommend a good copy right free music library, or maybe one by subscription where you get updates.

Thanks,

One wedding video producer in business for some time has the following written in their contract with the client. Is this just transferring liability?

“Music will be provided by the client, who is solely responsible for obtaining permission to use the music”

Jerry The clips are 59.94 fps, square pixels, Apple Intermediate Codec and an anamorphic frame size that escapes me right now.

If I wanted to start fresh and not lose my edits, what method would I use to retain the edits? Would I export an edit list or something?

Thanks,
Frank

Jerry – The source clips are the Modest Mouse stuff at https://edcommunity.apple.com/epic/contest.php

I did as you describe using Media Manager and the master clip names have not been changed, but something is still weird because like i said the clips show up in the reconnect media dialogue box, I point to the folder and click connect – then something happens (?) but the clips stay as is.

My understanding is by making a copy-sequence and using it’s settings to give it hi-rez properties, you’re in a sense creating a container – then the next step would be to make the offline clips whithin the copy sequence hi-rez by reconnecting them to the original clips. So should the copy-sequence settings match the attributes of the original clips?

Thanks,
Frank

Jerry – I was unsuccessful in returning the offline sequence to full rez. here’s what I did:

Duplicate the offlineRT sequence. I simply copy/pasted within the browser.

Change the duplicate sequence to be full res… DV or whatever… I tried multiple versions; first matching the original clip size, fps, codec then variations.

Then select all mulitclips, and collapse them by right clicking on them and selecting that option. I opened the sequence copy and collapsed clips.

Next, select all clips in the duplicated sequence, and right click on one of them to select “Reconnect media”. Then select the folder that contains the full res clips, connect the first, and then all the rest should reconnect to the high res media. Everytime I did this the clips didn’t seem to reconnect, even though the they were all listed, the first clip highlighted and I chose the folder containing the full rez clips.

Thank you Jerry – I’m going to try this as soon as I get home tonight.
