Using FCP 5.1, Cinema Tools 3.1.2
I've taken over a project that was shot on 35mm and telecined to miniDV.
Picture is locked and I'm needing to make a cut list for the negative cutter.
It was cut in 29.97so I did a 24 from 30 fps EDL convert in Cinema Tools
and imported that list into a 24fps FCP project. (Easy setup Cinema Tools 24fps from DV NTSC)
I then did a reverse telecine on the original 29.97 media.
Do I simply reconnect the offline clips in the new 24 project
to the clips in the reversed folder created by cinema tools?
Is there a better way to generate a film list from the 29.97?
ie a matchback list of sorts?
Kevin Monahan's posting was very helpful but I wasn't quite sure about the finish:
(does this workflow even apply to going back to a reverse telecine vs 24 HD)
"The Browser contains a list of the media used in the edit. You can then
use the Final Cut Pro Media Manager to create an new offline sequence that you'd
use to reconnect the clips for the online edit."
My second question is regarding the absence of key numbers in my FCP project.
I'm assuming that when they set this project up the flex files were imported into CT
and a batch capture list was generated NOT an XML batch list since none of the film info
came through into FCP.
First thing I came across was not being able to check my key numbers against burn-ins mid clip.
Does not having this information cause any other problems?
Is is sufficient for FCP to reference back to CT for that information?
Is there a way to get this information into FCP particulary now that I have this
slimmed down 24 fps project that only has the cut and used clips in it.
Thank you for any info!
