    Download MPEG Streamclip from https://www.squared5.com and import the VOB file from the DVD. Export it as a quicktime, and import into FCP. You’ll still need some creative treatment to replace the phone number, like a new title screen, or a box over the old number. Hpe that helps.

  • In the future, you should at the very least drop a wireless lav on the groom’s lapel, on the same side where his bride will be standing. That mike should pick up all vows and comments. Their words are more important to them than the Pastor’s

    As always this is the place to come to get the best advice in the industry. I took Walter’s approach and wrote the folks a short note saying that we can not take on any additional work at this time. His response was “thanks”. No harm, no foul, no lectures.

    Thanks again everyone who contributed. Have a good one!

  • 1 Digitizing is the same rate as editing, since we’re tying up our edit suite.
    2. We won’t bill for holding time, unless we have created a window for a client. Then we’ll tell them up front that the meter starts running at their appointed time. Honestly that’s never happened.
    3. Everything is by the hour. We have taken long jobs for an estimated flat fee with a limit on time. for example no more than 45 hours, andything over 45 will be billed at the hourly rate. Once it’s agreed upon before the job starts we will not change from hourly to a flat fee. All of this needs to be agreed upon before the project starts.

    I usually just cut the audio track and remove the um fill the spaces with room noise. This way the subject looks like they are taking a breath, and it’s not so noticable.
