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

” on page 65). To use the timecode-based method for cut list

generation, each record must also include these elements:

 video reel
 timecode and duration
