I think you should re-post your question in the FCP X Techniques forum. I think most or all of us in this forum are using FCP7 or lower. Best of luck, here is a link to the forum: https://forums.creativecow.net/fcpxtechnique

Great advice above. The company I work for is small and the last thing in the world that we need is employees that don’t get along. We have always brought someone in on a Free Lance basis first and decided if we liked them, do they work hard, do they bring anything extra to the table and will they be a good fit. Then we approach them about full time employment if it is available. If we don’t like them then we don’t have to fire them because we only brought them on as a Free Lance gig. I feel we have a strong team that does amazing work and we get along great so I think this model works.

I’ve done lots of projects in Photoshop CS5.1 and they come into Motion 4 great. What will not come in is stuff like the layer Styles and filters. You have to “bake” those layers.

Do you have access to a 8mm projector?

The footage will have to be converted to Quicktime in order for both of you to edit. I have not worked with an editor on a PC but I would see if they can work with Pro-Ress 422. If not pick a codec you both can agree on then log and transfer the footage. You will need to get the other editor the new clips and then you can go from there.

Great point point Mark. When I read 8mm it brought me back to my Dad’s old home movies on film. Obviously my post will not help if it is 8mm tapes.

If you have a 8mm projector, project the footage onto a white wall or poster board. Set up your camera next to the project and record to HD at 24 frames.
If you can’t get a projector then you can pay a company to transfer the files but it is pricy.
Hope this helps and best of luck.
