Ok – cool. My sequence settings are at “Render 10-bit material in high-precision YUV”. So, is this Rec. 709?

Thanks,
Matt

Lol – should’ve included what monitor Im using. I have a late 2015 MacBook Pro with Retina screen 2880×1800. How accurate would I be with this screen once I calibrate with xRite i1 Display Pro?

Thanks,
Matt

Cool will do some test runs to check if scaling parameters are sent back to FCP 7.

I’m calibrating my monitor with xRite i1 Display Pro. They have presets for Rec 709, DCI-P3, Rec 2020. Am I supposed to select the color space that corresponds to the final user’s/viewer’s screen? So I would guess I should have my screen calibrated to Rec 709 for most everything such as web delivery, DVD, BluRay, and TV/Broadcast…and for any film festival cinema projection I would use the DCI-P3 preset calibration, and review and regrade footage to look good in that color space?

Thanks,
Matt

Very cool – will test out this week. I also heard the the crop zoom/scaling is better in Resolve than FCP 7. I’m working in 1080P footage and have a few clips that will need to be crop zoom/scaled. Have you any experience with Resolve vs FCP 7 for this?

Thanks,

I figured out the problem! I added a Master Template to the timeline and that’s what caused it to get a weird and then cause FCP 7 to crash when I later tried to re-open the project. I’m not sure exactly why, but I’m on El Capitan 10.11.6 so Motion doesn’t work with this OS. So perhaps the Master Templates are in some way dependent on Motion being installed and functioning. No big loss – I’ll just use other programs that would’ve given me the benefits of Master Templates. That’s a wrap on this on!

Too bad though…the Master Template called Feature Title under 3D Text was pretty cool for what I was doing.

Thanks for all the tips Nick. (I must’ve misspoke, I meant I was tapping the left arrow to move through maybe 5-10 edits to get to the beginning of the timeline.) I tried trashing preferences and restoring with Digitial Rebellion. Perhaps I did it wrong as I trashed and restored after I had problems. Perhaps I need to trash preferences, and then manually reset them…then backup and restore?

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Nick,

So if I understand correctly, you’re saying that for the general editing work being done on the feature I should chop the 2 hour film project into a bunch of smaller projects (maybe 4 x 30 minute projects to cover the whole 2 hour film)?

If I do this, when it’s time to export, should I just copy them all into a single new 2 hour project, and export from here?

Thanks,
Matt

Also, thanks to others for your experience and tips as well.
