Thanks, and I am using FCP-X for all this but as I have edited this short movie I can’t use the “share” option to create any kind of movie.

If I convert the footage to ProRes does it loose a lot of quality? And how do I do this. I tried to transcode one clip and it seem to have worked. Should I just transcode them all?
And when I have already edited a movie without converting the files before is there any way I can convert it all afterwards saving the work I have done, or if I buy the compressor can I use that to export the movie into either blue ray or DVD? What I want to do now with this short movie is first just to save it on my computer but I can’t.

The reason why I’m concerned of being able to make the full movie I’m to make into DVD is that many film festivals require this format for the copy I am to send them. They also require it to be DCP which I haven’t exactly understood what it is. Sorry for being so lousy with this.

Thanks for the help man it’s really useful

Thanks for the analogy =)

So you think it is a bad idea for me to shoot a full movie using AVCHD planning to edit it with Final Cut Pro X?

Hi and thanks for you great instructions. I’m sorry but I have made a blunder – I do in fact have a version of Final Cut Pro X (version 10.0.6) I just assumed it wasn’t “Final Cut Pro X” since the interface on the tutorials I saw was different but now I realize I probably just have an older version.

As I said I’m not good at this things. But I am pretty sure I don’t have any Compressor nor (DVD studio pro) so do you suggest I buy these? I guess I need to (at least the Compressor) in order to export the short movie. At the moment I can’t export nor “share” the movie at all.

Is it a bad idea to film my full movie with AVCHD or can I with these complementary software be able to edit and create a nice DVD in spite of not being a pro on this?

Thanks a lot
