Generating Film Lists
and Change Lists
Cinema Tools can create a variety of lists from your
edited project.
When you’re done editing and ready either to have the original camera negative cut or
to conform a workprint, it’s time to export a film list. Using the information in the
database, Cinema Tools translates the edits made in Final Cut Pro into information a
negative cutter can use as a guide. This information is provided in the form of a cut list.
A number of other lists that are useful for film can be exported with the cut list. All of
these lists, including the cut list, are called film lists.
One film list file can contain several related lists, including any of the following:
 cut list: A list of edits and titling information (also known as an assemble list)
 missing elements list: A list of any required information that could not be found in
the database
 dupe list: A list of duplicate usages of the same source material
 optical list: A list for the effects printer, describing any transitions and motion effects
 pull list: A list to aid the lab in pulling the negative rolls they need
 scene list: A list of all the scenes used in your program and the shots used in the opticals
You can generate another type of list, called a change list, after an initial cut list has
been created. The change list assumes a workprint has been cut to the specifications of
a cut list (or prior change list) and it specifies further changes to make to the workprint,
based on edits you have made to the sequence in Final Cut Pro. See “
Creating Change
Lists ” on page 151 for information about creating change lists.
