Exporting Files for Final Cut Pro
You can export a sequence from NewsEdit to a Final Cut Pro machine when
both machines are part of a Network Attached Storage (NAS) system. This
allows for quick editing of a sequence on NewsEdit and then transferring the
unfinished piece to Final Cut Pro for additional editing.
Files are transferred using NewsEdit’s XML EDL format and Apple’s XML
Interchange format. These components of the NewsEdit sequence are
transferred:
• Clips
• Rendered effects and titles
• Dissolves (other wipes are converted to a dissolve)
• Varispeed
• Fit to Fill
• Audio voice disguise (but not EQ)
To export a sequence to Final Cut Pro:
1. Highlight the sequence in the Bin you want to export.
2. Choose File | Export | Final Cut Pro EDL .
3. Navigate to the folder where you want to export the EDL.
4. Enter a name for the file and click Save .
You can now import the file using Apple’s Final Cut Pro application.
