Price: $1.99 | Explicit? clean
Final Cut Studio Master Trainer and FCP for Avid Editors guru Stephen Kanter presents a potentially revolutionary new workflow that will allow Avid Unity-style project sharing with Final Cut Pro. After years of training and consulting onsite for clients at NBC/Universal, Warner Bros., ABC, CBS, FOX, and Reelz Channel, on shows like Ellen, In Plain Sight and Access Hollywood, Stephen has responded to oft-repeated request for project sharing with a workflow that will mimic, in almost every important respect, the user experience of sharing projects on Unity, a workflow he calls Final Cut Synergy. With the utilization of existing Apple systems and software, and a simple paradigm shift, multiple editors on Xsan can collaborate using the same kind of auto-updating project-sharing techniques that once were exclusive to Unity. Recently presented at two overbooked events at the Editor’s Guild, Stephen will demonstrate the process to his toughest audience, LAFCPUG members.

They will highlight how the media was organized for editing, using the Open Format Timeline, multiclip editing, and preparing for color correction in Color. Plus a handy tip for converting 24p HDV footage shot with the Sony V1U.

Sync-N-Link for FCP
A demonstration of the Sync-N-Link software for automatically synchronizing dual system sound based on matching Timecode.
Price: $0.50 | Explicit? clean
Intelligent Assistance set out to attempt to replicate the functionality of Avid's Auto-sync for Final Cut Pro users, and went one better. Sync-N-Link can be used to synchronize timecode- synchronized dual system audio and video automatically before editorial (like you've been able to do with Avid for years). However Sync-N-Link goes one better: proceed through editorial with camera audio and when close to picture lock send the sequence (via XML) to Sync-N-Link and in return get the Sequence back with the camera audio replaced by the multi-track audio. We leave all your temp effects and music in place on lower tracks, while giving you all the BWF or multi- track audio in place of the camera temp.
