Re: FCP Titles on external monitor - 15 years agoThe monitor is HD Capable. Our OP's problem is that he is trying to monitor HD without a video capture card.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Final video has jumps? - 15 years agoWell, you can detect these anomalies only on an external video monitor. I'm guessing you don't have one? My guess is that you have field issues going from HDV to SD. Have a read here:by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Using fcp to remove dust and scratches from images - 15 years agoFor dustbusting, I go to After Effects. FCP is not well suited for this.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Coverting a 44.1KHz Music Library to 48KHz - 15 years agoOf course, Compressor!by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Boris titles look bad - 15 years agoMONITOR PEOPLE MONITOR! Without a shade of doubt, all confusion regarding bad quality graphics, text or effects is related to improper monitoring. Hook up a broadcast monitor out of your DV deck and how does it look now? As a workaround, you can set the Canvas to 100% precisely and that should at least show you a reasonable facsimile of your text quality.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Seagate FreeAgent Xtreme drive problem - 15 years agoI cannot recommend these drives at all. Very difficult to mount.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: OT: Getting rid of the background on a logo - Using psd or jpg = rendering inferno - 15 years agoYes Andreas. It will also take less horsepower to playback. I think you can get the alpha playing in real time with a layered TIFF.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Problem since upgrade to 10.5.6 - 15 years agoDid you repair permissions after the update?by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Collapsing a nest - 15 years agoYou can press the CMD key any time after you click on the sequence icon. It does not necessarily need to be over the timeline before pressing CMD. But we understand you Joey.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: looking to move to pro-sumer tapeless HD workflow--which camera should I get? - 15 years agoYou conform it to ProRes via Log and Transfer. How long it takes, I'm not sure.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: baffled by sync problem in FCP 5.0 - 15 years agoI don't know how the heck you got that to work. You're supposed to use 5.1.4 or better on any MacPro. You're looking at an unsupported setup. You need the upgrade your Final Cut Studio or move to another machine with that software.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: I can load only one audio channel on the timeline - 15 years agoImport them into the Viewer First. Then patch your tracks. Then edit in the video by typing F10.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: editing w/ 16mm - 15 years agoIf you need a neg. cut, please make sure you are fluent with Cinema Tools or have access to an assistant that knows it. It is a database that will help you track timecode, keycodes, and ink numbers, vital for you negative cut.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Wacom tablet or Kensington trackball - 15 years agoShane Ross Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > OH, I use a mouse mainly.

You know "Gestures"?by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Audio Playback when capturing, but no audio in captured file. What to check ? - 15 years agoIf you are confused regarding audio (it's common), just to the the View menu and check your Audio Output settings. The proper setting depends on whether your speakers are attached to the Mac, the capture card or deck.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Creating Animatics from Drawn & Scanned Storyboards - 15 years agoI worked on animatics at Pixar on Nemo and WALL?E. For Nemo, we would scan the hand-made drawings into Photoshop. The various layers were animated in 2D in After Effects and then imported into Avid. The way they did it for WALL?E is that they drew directly onto pressure sensitive video screens into photoshop, with various elements on separate layers. They were then delivered to the After Eby Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: de-interlacing query - 15 years agoHave you tried it? If it won't work, use Compressor. You can use the presets, or tweak your own deinterlace settings.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Slide-to-playhead? - 15 years agoAndy Mees Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > There'e no ripple extend edit that as far as I > know Jeff ... but not sure if thats what you mean? > Do you want to move a selected clip so that its > In point lies at the playhead? If so, how about > Cmd-X, Cmd-V? Or is "slide" the key word ? I don't think he means "slide", heby Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Color Correction Workflow - 15 years agoProblem is, I don't know one person that has one. The MX02 is so new, it will take awhile for it reaches critical mass, so the info you seek is going to be scarce. Everyone I know has a BMD or AJA card that is serious about post. So, I'd go with what works right now.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Color Correction Workflow - 15 years agoGuess what? You still need a capture card for displaying HD properly. I would've kept the Kona 3 so you can be ready for any production.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: OT: About Quality of subtitles ? - 15 years agoAlso recently revealed is Digital Film Trees use of LiveType in the post-production of "Weeds". It's even on their highlight reel under "titles". Just goes to show you. The tools of FCS allow workflow wins in places you might not always anticipate.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: softness in the sequence timeline - 15 years agoYou need a monitor attached to your deck or camcorder to see your true quality. If you rely upon the Canvas you will be confused constantly. A trick, though, is to set it to precisely 100% and the RT pop up menu to Safe RT, High Quality, Full Frame Rate. It is much more convenient to work with a broadcast monitor. Unfortunately, most people were not trained on FCP to use one, so many people knby Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Clip overlay - 15 years agoI think Smoke on Linux is only a little more than $110K.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: Best option for holding on a frame? TIFF OR PNG? - 15 years agoYou can save a multi-layer PS doc as a TIFF and have it come in as a single layered graphic file rather than a sequence. You can "open in editor" tweak and save the layer in PS and it will update in FCP. It will also carry the alpha channel, no problem. You can get both access to multiple layers and transparency with less overhead than a standard PSD. PNG is fine if all you are dealingby Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: time code problem - 15 years agoFrom the other machine, export an XML. Import the XML into your FCP. You can also upgrade to match the other editor's version.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA Re: New MBPs: VGA to S-video signal? - 15 years agoYou don't monitor video via DVI-S-Video, you connect your FireWire device (deck, camcorder or DV Adapter Unit, like the Canopus) to the Mac Via FireWire and your S-Video from that to the Video Monitor. That is how we all do it.by Kevin Monahan - Café LA |
