Exporting Film Lists

You use the Film Lists dialog to export any of the lists described earlier. One film list file
is generated and that file contains all the lists you selected in the Film Lists dialog.

Note: If you want to create a change list you need to use the Change List dialog. See

Creating Change Lists

” on page 151 for more information.

To export a film list file

1

In Final Cut Pro, open and select the sequence for which you want to create a list.

2

Choose File > Export > Cinema Tools Film Lists.

The Film Lists dialog appears.

3

Configure the settings in the Film Lists dialog, then click OK.

See “

Settings in the Film Lists Dialog

” on page 146 for settings information.

If you expect to make changes to this Final Cut Pro sequence and want to export a
change list later, be sure to select “Save a Cinema Tools program file.” You’ll need that
program file to export a change list that compares this sequence to another version.

4

If you selected “Save a Cinema Tools program file,” enter a filename and location for it
in the dialog that appears.

5

In the next dialog that appears, enter a filename for the film list, choose a location, and
click Save.

Important:

Give the program file a name that clearly identifies the sequence and the

version for you, so that you can easily locate it later when you need to export a change
list that compares this sequence to a newer version.
