Missing Elements List
The missing elements list lists all of the clips in a sequence for which a corresponding
database record either was not found or did not contain all of the necessary information.
It is important that you export and examine a missing elements list to make sure that
there are no elements missing before the negative cutter begins conforming the negative.
For each clip listed in the missing elements list, the element that is missing is specified.
The shot number where that clip appears in the cut list is called out on a separate line.
If any of the following are missing, they are listed in the missing elements list:
• Lab, camera, or daily roll
• Key number or ink number
Additionally, each source clip must be connected to a record, unless you can use the
timecode-based method for cut list generation (see
A Potential Database Shortcut for
Camera-Roll Transfers ). To use the timecode-based method for cut list generation, each
record must also include these elements:
• Video reel
• Timecode and duration
