Where do your movies go after they go to final cut?

I placed a video in final cut and left iMovie and now I lost it.  I really need this video. 

When you use the FILE/IMPORT IMOVIE EVENTS command in Final Cut Pro X, it will create hard links to your iMovie Events. (Time Machine also works with Hard Links.) This means that they are physically one file (so they don't take up double the space), but they are still in iMovie, and also in FCP. You may need to let FCP finish its analysis, and then restart FCP. Also restart iMovie. Wouldn't hurt to restart the computer.

    TThose aren't bins. Those are just groupings based on when the content was created or any other selected parameter. Use the action popup in the toolbar tho change the setting.

  • Canon EOS Movie Plugin-E1 not recognized in Final Cut Pro 10.0.7

    Canon EOS Movie Plugin-E1 not recognized in Final Cut Pro 10.0.7
    I just installed the new version of final cut pro 10 and the canon plugin-E1 version 1.4 for the canon 5D mk III but after starting final cut pro I can not find the Log and transfer button., with the result I cannot import my files.
    Is there a solution for this problem.

    There is no L&T function in FCPX.
    The import media dialogue window does what you want.
    OS versions later than 10.6 should be fine importing Canon DSLRs.

  • Where can I find a good, free effect for Final Cut Pro of electrocution?

    Where can I find a good, free effect for Final Cut Pro of electrocution?  I'm using it for a taser sequence.
    Thanks!
    Matthew

    Open Motion, look for lightningin the generators. From there, it's a question of figuring out how it works and what you need to do to make it work for your sequence. That's about as free as it gets and it will ony be as good--even if someone else did the work for you--as the amount of time you're willing to invest.

  • Where can I get replacement media or download for final cut 3?

    where can I get replacement media or download for final cut 3?

    There is no download for any install of Final Cut Pro before version X.
    For physical media, try contacting Apple Care support. Otherwise, ebay or alternative resellers is your only recourse for acquiring install discs.
    x
    edit: If you want Final Cut Pro 3, you'll need a PowerPC computer that can run OS9. If you mean Final Cut Studio 3 (aka FCS 2009) you'll have better luck finding something out there that will run on contemporary machinery.

  • Will adobe after affects work with final cut pro x

    Will adobe after affects work with final cut pro x?

    You can't work with the files natively, if that's what you mean - you can't drop a .aep file into FCP X, or vice-versa.  You can do this to some extent using Premiere Pro and After Effects, but only if you get them together in the Production Premium collection.
    Like Tom said, though, you can prep stuff in either direction and work with both applications without a problem.

    What do you mean by "where to they go"??  They're contained within the back and will be incluced in that backup any time you do a restore.
    You should be treating your phone like any other digital camera and syncing them with whatever photo library softawre you use on your computer.

  • Audio out of synch after I export from Final Cut

    I have a video on a Final Cut timeline. If I play in FC, audio is in synch. If I play the file in QuickTime player from my captures folder, the audio is in synch. If I export from final cut, or from quicktime pro, the audio of the resulting file is off by about 1 second. I was trying to make a h.264 file, but it does the same thing if I export to other formats as well.
    This only seems to be happening with this particular video. I have a number of project loaded right now, and do not have this same problem with the other projects.
    Weird....any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You didn't include any of your specifications for the sequences or exported movies but a problem that only exists on a single item is directly associated with that item and can be identified but they're usually subtle.
    My first guess is that the audio on the original media is set to a slight different sampling rate. Could be off a thousandth of a decimal. The reason it works in the timeline is it's being conformed to the sequence settings in realtime. The export would reference the original.
    I can't tell from the post where you're getting this loss of sync. Can you try exporting a self-contained movie and then use that to go to h.264?

  • Exporting after effects files to Final cut pro

    Hello, I'm trying to export some simple AE quicktime movies for use in the 'Final cut pro' application.I'm using AE CS5.5 on Mac OSX and my colleague is using version 5.1.4 of Final cut pro on Mac OSX. My movies arent rendering very well in FCP (my colleague tells me that there is loss of quality). What format should I render my movies as in  the 'Output Module settings' box? And what 'video Codec' should I select from the 'Format options' box in the 'Output Module settings' box? I'm guessing that getting this correct is the issue...and I cant seem to get the right setting!
    Please help! Its driving me mad!
    Many thanks in advance.

    I've got a different opinion about 422. I find even 422LT it is completely adequate and satisfactory for 90% of the work I do with my partner. However, we mostly use ProRes4444 when exchanging movie files, even if we dont' need the alpha, simply because it's a good standard that we can always use whether we're coming out of Motion or After Effects or FCP.
    If your movie looks good to you coming out of AE, but your editor says it is not rendering well in FCP, he's probably got something set improperly in FCP for handling the file you've given him or you are giving him an incorrect frame size or frame rate. Your output settings should match his timeline's base codec, almost exactly. But you must consider his need for an aplha chanel, color space, frame rate, scalability and other factors.

  • Good quality quicktime movie looks poor when played thru Final Cut timeline

    I created a quicktime file with moving text in After Effects 6.5..when i play the movie file it looks fine..no aliasing or jagged edges on the text...
    when I import the .mov file into finalcut (4.5HD) and immediately launch & play it in the viewer, it also looks fine...
    but when i place the .mov file onto the timeline and play it from there, or when i relaunch that .mov file from the timeline into the viewer, the quality of the text looks degraded...
    ...so i'm thinking it's a setting issue...i don't think it's an AE issue because I was able to get a good quality image into the viewer in Final Cut...I'm using the DV NTSC 48khz standard settings...720 x 480...could it be the 'millions of colors' or the 'YUV video processing' settings selected in the sequence settings?
    ...thanks for any help!
    peace

    thanks...that helps...i've been watching it back on
    the computer monitor..guess i'll have to do a quick
    dvd burn to see how it appears on tv to see if that
    was the issue...(no monitor or space to use a tv as a
    monitor yet)
    Whoa there! You shouldn't waste time burning a DVD to check the quality of your renders. In fact, you should be working with the video monitor (or TV) hooked up to your DV Deck or DV Camcorder as you work. That way, you can always be aprised of your quality. This is the way the manual says you should be set up at all times. However, you are cutting in a space that does not have room for a small video monitor? Wow, must be a closet or something.
    If a video monitor is not convenient, then you can see an aproximation of the quality you'd see in a video monitor if you do the following: Zoom out your Canvas to precisely 100% and Uncheck Sq. Pixels in the Zoom pop up. You may need to resize the Canvas to see the whole image and if you are working with a small computer screen.

  • Final cut to photoshop to after effects back to final cut problem

    Hello there,
    I shall explain my problem.
    I am working with three different programs. Finla cut 7, photoshop, and after effects.
    I have taken a jpeg still from final cut to work in photoshop.
    In phtoshop I have layered a project to work in after effects to make an animation.
    The animation is then exported back from after effects into final cut.
    When I do this I realise that the dimensions of the animation differs from the original sequence from where the still was taken.
    I work with PAL.
    The still from the sequence is 768 x 576. I create a still using 'export- Using quick time conversion'. I do not understand why the image obtained does not have the format 720x576 as it says the film sequences have in final cut pro settings.
    When I edit it in photoshop, I create an image that has the 'film-video' setting but the image still does not match the frame. I have noticed there was the setting PAL1/DV square pixel but it still does not match the original format after editing in after effect.
    Why is this?
    Thank you

    Hello mylenium,
    Thank you very much for the link.
    I now manage to have the same image size when working in final cut.
    I hope you do not mind me asking another question. I seem to lose a little bit of resolution. Could this be because i transfer an image worked onto photoshop to after effect and then back to final cut?
    I have changed the file dimension before importing it into after effect (from 768x576 to 720x576) and i export the after effect file using quick time in the setting, thus reimporting a .mov file into final cut.
    Thx
    Best

  • How do i export movies from my home dvd to final cut?

    I have a home dvd that has a compilation of movies. I am trying to get one of these movies and import them into Final Cut Pro. When I opened the DVD, two folders come up: Video and Audio. Video has all of the movies that are on the menu, when I imported that file into Final Cut, I could not get any audio. When I went into the audio folder, there are no files inside. Any suggestions on how to get the movie in one piece with audio and video linked so that I can edit it?

    You shouldn't need to bother with leads coming from your DVD player at all. As others have said use either of the software solutions given and both of these will handle the audio. The two folders you found on the DVD are standard (Audio TS and Video TS) but, weird as it may sound, the audio is actually within the video TS folder.
    The software mentioned will also extract the audio for you from the video TS folder.
    If you can get the original tape - in my experience extracting from DVD is no where as good as the original file but if you are stuck then it is better than nothing.
    Best of luck,
    Michael

  • Difference between Adobe After Effects and Apple Final Cut; Motion etc.

    I quess my main question is, Do both products do the same thing? I am thinking of buying After Effects for use with Flash, but I see that that Final Cut does allot of the same.
    I would like to know if I am missing something.
    How good is the blue screen effect in express?
    I would like to do alpha transparancies for Flash work on the web.
    Thanks Ed.

    To my understanding After Effects is very different from Motion. They certainly have similarities, but they are two different types of programs.
    After Effects is a Keyframe based post-production tool that, while complex, is exteremely powerful. Motion is more user-friendly and has cool features, but as for raw power for intense CG work it is not your tool.
    As for keying things out, I have only used the croma key tools in Final Cut Pro, and while it works well, it does not have quite the same ease as something along the lines of: http://www.seriousmagic.com/products/ultra/
    If you are looking for an easy, web qaulity way of keying things, seriousmagic is probably the company for you.

  • Displaying HDV 1080i50 .mov file in FCE captured with Final Cut Pro

    Hi
    I cannot display (in Final Cut Express) a clip in a .mov file that contains HDV 1080i50. The file was created on a different Mac computer running Final Cut Pro. The source was a Sony Z1 camera. No hardware card was used.
    I get the error message in FCE - "Codec not found. You may be using a compression type without the corresponding hardware card"
    Can Final Cut Express work with HDV 1080i50 created from FCP?

    You didn't say what format the video was, but you can use MPEG Streamclip to convert that video to something that works in FCE.
    The important thing is that you'll want to match the settings you convert this video to so that it matches your timeline settings. This will make everything much easier to work with and eliminates the need to constantly render the timeline.
    Do you have other content you are going to be working with in addition to just this one clip? If it's just this one clip, you will probably want to use the "Easy Setup" settings of HD, AVCHD-Applie Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i50. You'll want to use MPEG StreamClip to convert that video to matching settings -- specifically tell it to convert to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec). If you have other media/clips you're working with in addition to this one, you'll then need to decide what format you want to use for the timeline and Easy Setup. If you post those details, we can try to help out.
