batch import. If you just import them, they’ll have totally different omfi names.

I guess it depends on the client. I’ve never had this problem. I try to set these kinds of gigs up so that I’m working alone. When that is the case, I can always get something done in half the time budgeted for as I dodn’t have to sit, discuss, oppease and explain every edit. I can simply make the show and rock on. Should they wanna swap a shot, I have plenty of time fluffed for that. Should I ever feel they are venturing into an exploitation phase, I diplomaticly explain it’s time to wrap it up. I’ll have em sit over my shoulder and make calls than make a final dub if I have to but my days of getting upside down on gigs are over.
That said… my flat rates are what get me lots of gigs. They are a great deal-sealer. If I threw out restrictions to that, I may as well just state an hourly rate and let em pass. -
all I can say is if I saw my ragistered trademark pop up in any flick, somebody would be writing me a much fatter check than if they called me before hand.

Garbage mask. Just create a new layer, make it the color ya want and animate a mask. You’ll have more control over this in AE. Full control, as a matter of fact. You can then do it to the beat of music or as dialog changes.

The whole point of registering a trademenrk is to protect ir against use without permission. While you can spend some time trying to get permissions, as a viewer I fail to see how these logos will help your documentary. I know what coke is. I don’t need to see a logo to understand it better.

The bast thing to do is boldy ask the atty that hired you first. I’d be inclined to bill the dude asking for the new services though… a very handsom rate. I’m thinking your atty will like that as well.

Because FCP all but passed it up, man not much, unfortunately. If you advertise it for 30k, I imagine you’ll get many nibbles. Be ready to take much less. Have a minimum in mind and don’t go below that, if you can still use it in any way. I would have been a happy buyer 3 or 4 years ago, man. Much has changed.

An uncompressed quicktime will be fine. You can use the meridien codec or even the animation codec at best settings if you don’t have an avid codec.

Depends on the vibe of the peace. White is pure and perky and black is either sopphisticated, mysterious or bold. Sounds like an organic earth tone background would be better for this. You can mask in the color changes, pouring just white sand for the raw shot.

Just scan em big enough to use em in a 1080 AE project. I scan em at 300 dpi for animation use.
