Dividing Transitions Between a Contact and Optical Printer

You can have standard length transitions created by a contact printer and the rest of
the transitions created as opticals.

You do this by exporting a film list in which standard-length transitions are listed as cuts
for printing on a contact printer, and nonstandard-length transitions are listed as opticals.

m

In the Film Lists dialog, choose “Std are cuts” from the Transitions pop-up menu.

For more information about generating a film list, see “

Exporting Film Lists

” on page 145.

Tracking Duplicate Uses of Source Material

Cinema Tools makes it possible to track multiple uses of the same source material in
your edited sequence. There are two basic reasons to do this:

 If you want to use the same source material more than once in your project, you can

export a duplicate list (dupe list) and give it to your lab as a part of a duplicate
negative order.

 If you don’t want to spend the money required to create a duplicate negative, you

need to be careful not to edit in a way that uses the same source material more than
once since there is only one original camera negative. When editing digitally, it’s so
easy to use the same material twice that you may not even realize that you’ve done
it, but Cinema Tools lets you check for duplicate usages on a regular basis.
