I don’t think the computer has firewire. I will not be in that studio till mid week next week. I will check it out. Is there anything else I should look for? I was taking a course and the teacher was using vegas to edit, but he was using something else to digi the footage. I don’t remember what the software was called, would anyone know about this step? or do you guys digi with vegas?

FCP would not recognise the AVCHD formate, because it’s FCP 6 on a powerPc. I doesn’t recognise the index files. The AVCHD is footage is from the camera and they are .MTS files. So i put the .MTS files in toast and can output whatever I want, so I did DVCPRO HD. The footage looks jagged. Oh i fixed the render problem. The audio bit rate did not match, the footage was 32 bit and FCP6 Has a max of 24 bit for the timeline. So What’s up with the jagged footage?

I have just watched to footage and it looks downgraded and a little jagged around curved edges, like peoples shoulders. How can this be fixed? thanks for your help.

I will put my numbers together, all my gear is paid off, I work from my house. So I guess the overhead would be very low. I see people charging 50 per hour with gear. I used to have a bigger studio with rent and I was doing 175 per hour. Well I would have to revisit everything. But I have to talk to her in the morning. I think I’m going to ask what her specks are then ask what is her budget. If I feel it’s worth it I will give her a yes or no. Would you know if it is possible to cut 8×2 min videos, with music ,sfx,grx in 2 weeks or even in one week? like I mentioned this is a travel show training video type of thing. Like i mentioned I will be going to school full time and would like this to be finished by the 16th of June.
Sorry I know I sound confusing, I have been in this business for a long time and I really have a hard time trusting clients these days on anything. I guess I have to get over it, and learn from mistakes.
Are there any specific questions that I should be asking just incase I forget some?Thanks for your help.

yes, just wondering if there is a standard hourly rate for web videos. I have to find out what the footage formate is. I don’t have any HD decks or cameras. I can always ask to borrow the camera that the guy used to shoot (i think this might not look good on me) with or rent a deck or something like that. What are the various formats to host these clips on line and to various social markets? does anyone now. I know about QT,FLV,AVI,Mpeg4 are there any other, plus any PC formats that I should be aware of?
If I would charge an hourly how do you determine how much for her to give me for a down payment to start the job if I were to take it.
I will let you know how it goes I will call her tomorrow. Any suggestions on my approach?
Sorry for all the questions, this site has been a big help to me.
