May I import 3 video clips from FCP secuence?

I have in the FCP Timeline a composition of 3 video clips. V1 is video image, V2 a title and V3 is another video image. May export them exactly as they are in the
timeline? What I pretend is to work with them in Motion in this order. Is it possible? If it's? How can I export them?
Thanks to all.

Select them all, right-click, and choose Send to Motion.

Whats the best way to import video clips from FCP into a personal template

Hey all, I'm doing some tests. I see some color shifting going on when I export out of FCP using QT conversion (same settings as sequence), Importing into Motion, then adding lower third graphics, then exporting out of Motion .... and finally back to FCP. I put the new graphic added layer on top and have the original on bottom. I toggle the monitor on both layers and see a slight saturation drop on the graphic layer. Has anyone noticed that ?
The reason Im doing this is because lets say I have lower thirds that I want to place throughout a hour show. I want to set-up a basic lower third template and just plug in the video clips for the areas that I need those graphics. It would be way to difficult to export out of the timeline in FCP
and rebuild those lower thirds everytime in Motion. Does anyone know of a better way or does everyone have to export out to the desktop and then into Motion every time they want to use a Motion template.
Thanks to any replies.

Try roundtripping from FCP to Motion and back using Send to Motion. In FCP, Control Click your clip>Send To>Motion Project. The clip will open in Motion with the proper project properties. Make your edits there, press Save, and then render back in FCP. No exporting necessary, although you might see a gamma shift. Much easier.
To do this with an existing Motion template, I'd try copying and pasting in that template's contents once you've sent to Motion from FCP.

Video clips from FCP to website

We want to post 30 2-3min video clips on our business web site and will continue to do this on a ongoing basis.
The process is for me to export as a QT file, post it on our server for our webmaster who will covert to flash and will then post on our website. (She has the software so she'll do it for now).
My big question is when exporting the clip out of FCP I will go to:
QT conversion,go to QT movie-options-settings-and dial down compression to medium(in the interest of saving space)??
OR
go to QT conversions-most recent settings-and select Broadband medium or Streaming medium. Or something other??
Hopefully someone is doing something similar to this on a regular basis as I will be doing and can advise as to the best way they found to go.
Thanks Kosmc4

What you don't want to do is compress more than one time. So the best way to do this is choose file/export/QuickTime Movie... then choose use current settings and include audio and video if both are needed. Also check on "Make movie self contained". This is a single QT movie of your short videos... and it is of the highest quality possible. But it's a large file compared to what you've been suggesting. However... it will end up being compressed to flash and that final should look better because you didn't compress it twice.
That said, it's really making sense to me for YOU to make the flash movie directly from your edit station... You'll need either Flash pro, or Sorenson Squeeze or Episode Pro to do the best job of this. That way you're only compressing one time too.

Import Music Video Clips from iTunes

Doing some creative intro videos using iTunes 6.0.3 music videos. Want to import to iMovie 4.0.1. do some editing & then use it back in iTunes as a music video. But iMovie won't recognize it. Stuck. How do I do it???

Nail on the head Sue.
I thought the users profile was out of date. Maybe not and they are using QT 6 which doesn't support the new H.264 video codec.
iMovie wouldn't import the file either without QT 7 being installed.

Problem importing video clips from Panasonic SDR-S10

Hi, can anyone help? In iMovie I try to import my video clips from my Panasonic Camcorder SDR-S10 and it shows clips there, but when you click on them the clip icon disappears. Try to import and it doesn't import anything? Any ideas.
Anyone know a workaround for importing clips from this camera I get a lot of problems with a Mac when using this one.
Thanks
Hayley

I have the same camcorder and have used Visual Hub to convert the .mod clips to .dv files which work just fine with iMovie. You can try out Visual Hub for clips less than 2 minutes in length in the trial mode. I think it costs about $20. Also, I've heard you can buy an mpeg2 plug in for Quicktime Pro that will let you use those files. I think that is also about $20.
Also, search the apple discussions for ".mod" and you'll find a lot of other similar questions to the one you asked.
Hope this helps.

Help...! Importing a clip from FCP to Motion?

I'm using FCS 5.1 and I'm totally new to it. I simply want to take a video clip from FCP and work with it on Motion. The said video clip is on a timeline, with in and out points already set. I simply want to take this small segment and add a cool effect to it on Motion. Since I have no idea how this is suppose to be done, I tried dragging the clip from the FCP timeline to the Motion window. This does not work.

Hi:
I think you'll get best answers posting this question in the Motion Forum:

Import video clip from DVD

Can anyone help me learn what I need to import video clips from my family video DVD's? I created the DVD's from tapes through Pinnacle Studio 8 (before becoming a Mac fan).
Thanks for any help you can give me,
Ann

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
My personal choice would be to edit them to a compatible format such as DV, you can do this with mpegstreamclip (free) provided you have the QT mpeg2 playback component installed (think it's $30), there are other third party software solutions, no doubt others will have their favourites.

Then click the import button if it hasn't started already.

How do I import video clips from iPhoto if it doesn't recognize the video clips in iMoive

I'm trying to make a movie using iMovie and I recorded some clips using a Sony Digital Camera and iMovie won't let me upload the video clips from iPhoto. I try to import them but when i try to click on the file, it won't let me. Like its not bold like other files (It will let me upload video that were taken with my iPhone) I have iMovie 09.
What do I need to do?
Thanks!
Ayca

Do you plan to put each video clip in iDVD to be playes separately? If so then here's how:
1 - open iDVD and select your theme.
2 - click on the Media button at the bottom right and then on the Photo button at the top.
3 - in the search window type in ".mov" (or the extension of the video clips you plan to use).
4 - all of the video clips with the extension you entered will be displayed and you can drag them into the menu area at the left.
Another way would be to put all of the video clips in an Album and click on that album to view and drag the clips:
Remember, the order that they are added to the menu will be the order that the buttons will highlight when you scroll thru the buttons with a DVD player remote.
This will give you a menu with a separate button for each video clip (up to 12 in a menu with some themes).
If you want to play all of the clips one after another you could create a slideshow in iDVD with the "+" button at the bottom and drag the video clips into the slideshow as you would still photos. Set the slide duration to anything but manual and don't apply any transition.
That will let you play all of the clips sequentially.

I don't want to import video clips from iPhoto!

iMovie automatically imports video clips from iPhoto, and I don't need or want this to be done. I don't want to delete or move those clips from iPhoto, so is there a way to prevent the automatic transfer?

Go to your Hotmail account on the web (NOT in mail), make a new folder (or folders) for the mail you want to keep and move the messages into it.
Mail (and all other email clients) will download all messages in the inbox unless previously downloaded. That means downloaded with the client you are attaching now.
Until that is done do not setup the account in mail.

Importing video clips from iMac

Hi all,
I've just purchased a new iPhone 4 and can't seem to be able to import video clips from iPhoto onto the phone. Is there a particular format the files need to be or do I need another app or converter?
Thanks in advance,
Scott

Toad, you are incorrect...
However it is a PIA to get it to work.
In very un-Apple-like fashion, it is a several step, unintuitive process that requires another program. Luckily a free program...
1. Convert your file with Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr/) and use the iPad profile. (P.S. My original .mov file needed to be converted to work on iPad. The built-in "Create iPad or Apple TV version" function in iTunes would not work for me. I received a "The video is already in the correct format" message. Annoying...)
2. Put the converted file into a folder
3. With your iPad connected to your computer, go to iTunes and select the "Photos" tab on your iPad.
4. IN the "Sync Photos From:" drop down box choose "Select folder" and select the folder that contains your video.
5. Check the "Include Videos" check box.
6. Hit the "Sync" button
7. Now the video will be available in Keynote. No desktop version required...
P.S. I am a PC... Not a Mac.

You need iDVD for that.

Import a video clip shared on iCloud?

Is this at all possible?
I have a few video's i have taken on christmas day of my boy that i have uploaded to an iCloud stream/album from Aperture which i did last night.
Today i went to edit them in iMovie on my iPad yes i could do it on my iMac but that would mean sitting in my office in my workshop but as its boxing day i would like to be around my family.
I could not find a way to import video clips from an iCloud album into iMovie there isnt an option to add the video to my camera roll.
Its seems a bit crazy you can share a movie you make in iMovie the other way to iCloud but not be able to import them in
Anyone found a way round this?
Cheers

It is now 23 May 2014, and nothing has improved.
In the OS X environment, everything works as expected:
• OS X iPhoto shows photos and videos from iCloud shared streams under SHARED > iCloud > My Streams or Family and Friends’ Streams.
• OS X iMovie can access iCloud shared stream videos as source material for movies via LIBRARIES > iPhoto Library > iCloud.
In the iOS environment, movies from iCloud shared streams are suppressed:
• iOS iPhoto shows only photos from iCloud shared streams under Shared; no videos.
• iOS iMovie shows photos from iCloud shared streams under Photos. It does not show any of the iCloud shared stream videos as source material for movies under Video.
Can anyone explain the logic of this? Clearly, Apple expects iOS devices to be used for movies, and even provides iMovie in that environment, so why suppress only videos from iCloud shared streams while supporting photos from there?
Is this "by design" or is it a bug?
Finally, does anyone have a workaround?

Open Photos > select video > tap forward icon (rectangle with arrow) > Email Video. If the video file is too large for your, or the recipient's email server, it may not get delivered.
You need this - it's all in there:
