    editing 2 FCP Audio Questions

    I eventually right clicked on 'remove attributes' and checked 'distort'. I have no idea why I needed to do that or why it was there but it worked... I'm finally ready to export the video. Hopefully I'll have it up on the web later today and you guys can check it out. BTW, when I export with...

    Thanks a lot. That's exactly what I needed to know. Do you think all movies will be digital eventually, and film will be obsolete?

    The creative lebido

    I'm sitting on my computer with absolutely no desire to write. I've learned by now not to force myself and to not write when I'm not feeling it. I guess I sit down and actually write when I'm feeling the creative drive inside me, which I experience sporadically. Anyone else ever go through...

    editing Fixing overexposed clips

    UPDATE: Re-exported the movie before I went to movies (enjoyed Gran Torino. Much better than I thought it would be). It turns out there was a small audio clip far down the timeline, causing there to be extra time. Somebody slap me...

    I must warn you this is a very newbish question. I also consider myself a screenwriter before a cinematographer, which explains the majority of my newbish questions regarding cameras and editing (but I'm getting better). Anyway, can someone please explain or provide examples of the different...

    I forgot to include a minor detail... These must be classy looking girls. You will see why after I shoot it.

    All that I did was drag the clip into the timeline then right click and select speed. Then I chose 300%, constant speed, and frame blending is checked (maybe this is why?). (BTW, this is all before I exported.)

    editing Fixing overexposed clips

    It took a few hours to export the project into a .mov file. For some reason, the last 1/4 is all black. Seems like I can't accomplish any editing without running into a problem...

    editing 2 FCP Audio Questions

    I redid all of the audio files which did not take very long. While I have your attention, I have one more thing to fix before I export it. I have a clip, which I increased the speed of to get a fast-motion effect. Now the clip is not widescreen, like all of the others, when I view it. Very...

    So you're exporting files at best quality as a quicktime file?

    editing 2 FCP Audio Questions

    They are not muted. It's very bizarre. When I double click on the audio file in the timeline it doesn't even play in the viewer. Something went wrong when I moved files around. It's like the audio file is there in the timeline and it's edited, however there is no audio file to play... I guess...

    Got a hard drive today. I've also been working on hosting for my domain name. If anyone knows of any good tutorials for uploading video to the web please let me know. I have a feeling I'll be running into more problems when I venture into those waters...

    I have two questions regarding audio in FCP. If anyone could help that would be great. Shouldn't be too hard to answer. I'm just a newb... 1. I've been re-arranged files around hard drives. Now that I finally have the files where I want and I've reconnected all of the media, the audio...
