Re: Export Problems Since Upgrading to Mountain Lion - 11 years ago
why not just custom-export your sequence via quicktime conversion or compressor in accordance with youtube/vimeo encoding instructions, then save the settings as a preset? WMby Wanted Man - Café LA

Re: matching clips to sequence settings - 11 years ago
Yo Strypes "you should get an option which will let you conform sequence settings to the clip." . . . . "This options can also be set in general preferences" FCP7 here, in the generals i can't see that option. i'm dropping a 4:3 240 x 180 15fps clip into a sequence but it's not offering me to match sequence settings to the clip, resulting in the footage needing to be renderby Wanted Man - Café LA

Re: I edited a sequence in mp4. Help!??? - 11 years ago
Sounds killer! Nope no effects as such, although i have re-sized some clips to appear as though that footage is playing on a TV, although those are locked shots, no movement. When you say 'send it to Premiere', how exactly (?) you mean to open up the project file in Premiere? . . . .by Wanted Man - Café LA
Re: I edited a sequence in mp4. Help!??? - 11 years ago
Cheers D - so just to confirm . . 1- You recommend converting only the clips used - but in this case my sequence has been cut from one huge 2hr+ long mp4 and not separate clips. I gather you mean to export each clip separately as an uncompressed quicktime file, which i then re-import to rebuild the sequence for export? 2- What do you mean by 'conform manually using the dummy timecode'?by Wanted Man - Café LA
I edited a sequence in mp4. Help!??? - 11 years ago
I edited a sequence in mp4. Shame on me. I was rushing on a project and didn't bother to transcode. Needless to say this is a non-commercial project but still - a weeks intensive work i need to get out. Exporting from FCP to QT i get green flashes and distortions, exporting via mp4 from FCP and also sending it to compressor i get mega-compressed artefacts, unusable. In my experience transcoby Wanted Man - Café LA
Adobe After Effects - 11 years ago
As an FCP editor what are the most common client requests via you and After Effects? What are the most commonly requested or working re-occurrences that one may need to be up on? I've been in FCP for over 10 years, most of my title and credit sequence work has been done via photoshop and FCP motion keyframes, occasionally Motion. I know i can recreate popular looks graphically with texture.by Wanted Man - Adobe Premiere Pro CC
Re: Upping a clips resolution* - 11 years ago
"If it ended up on a video DVD, it's 720x480." thats my point, derek. hence my opening question Quoteme I'm putting together a compilation reel, but some of the material i was only able to access at a smaller resolution - 854 x 480, so the other stuff included in the reel from 1920 x 1080 etc has been scaled down to this sequence size.

Re: Upping a clips resolution* - 11 years ago
The thing is derek, the majority of clips in the reel are extracted from smaller sources, so if i edit to the size of the larger clips those will look blown-up and, well, rubbish .. "Why are you downscaling your HD material and then blowing it back up?" i'm not, the footage is ripped from dvd which is the only way i could get my hands on that specific material i edited.

Re: Upping a clips resolution* - 11 years ago
Hi Joey, 1 - looks good but this is zero budget, so no can do. 2 - what were the dimensions of your sequence prior to you exporting it to 1080 Prores? would it be possible to do the same with my 854 x 480 sequence? Cheers, WMby Wanted Man - Café LA

Re: Lichtenstein look - 11 years ago
ToonIt worked for me in tandem with other filters. Be warned the adjustable perimeters and rendering times are many and extensive. As joey said there is no shortcut. You'll have to put in the time and effort if you really want that look done well. They do have presets but they look naff. there is however a half-tone facility which enables you control over the size of the print-dots, the finisby Wanted Man - Café LA
Re: Final Cut Pro X Review for booklet research Pros and Cons on the software - 11 years ago
I view 'the change' as akin to ripping the skeleton and organs out of a body then throwing a sack of skin back at us while feigning it to be prim and proper. Nothing but a political move IMO. Very distasteful. Disrespectful and counter-productive.by Wanted Man - Café LA

Re: Aspect Ratio Madness - 11 years ago
the problem is that when exporting for Vimeo, via quicktime conversion or Compressor, the sequence always comes out squashed 4:3 instead of the 1440x1080 as per clip and sequence settings . . . stil no idea why, i've ben thinking of work-arounds, changes, and have taken advice off this thread so far to no avail! bit baffled by it . .by Wanted Man - Café LA

im using settings: dimensions: custom 1440 x 1080 ticking 'preserve aspect ratio'. There is an option 1440 x 1080 HD 16:9, which i hadn't tried so i'm exporting that now to see, maybe it's simply that option, although the other didn't specify 4:3 . .by Wanted Man - Café LA

Aspect Ratio Madness - 11 years ago
Hi all, I'm editing in a sequence ratio 1440 x 1080, and exporting my sequence to quicktime, then using quicktime conversion to prep it for vimeo. In the finder it states the clip is 1920 x 1080, but when i bring it back into fcp and lay it in the timeline item-properties says it's now 1440 x 1080.

Re: 16:9 sequence coming out as 4:3!? - 11 years ago
Cheers Strypes! As it happened i just didn't tick the export box 'constrain/maintain proportions' and it was fine, although it may have had something to do with square pixels vs others, also the pixel ratio to which it was shot not matching the sequence settings which were used with footage shot on another camera.

16:9 sequence coming out as 4:3!? - 11 years ago
Hi all - The clip/s i'm exporting are coming out 4:3 instead of 16:9. Initially the video was cut and exported on fcp5 on my tower, stored for a while and now in the finder-viewer as well as quick time player my 16: files are popping up as 4:3. So i imported it into my laptop, fcp6 and re-exported (it looked normal, 16:9 in the timeline here) but upon looking at the QT it is stil coming outby Wanted Man - Café LA
