[Avid-L2] Re: Can we move an entire FCP Project into Avid?

 

Yeah, i can already take FCP sequences directly to Avid AAF or OMF via the Automatic Duck, but again, it's Sequences only, not the entire project like we can do with Premiere Pro.

The issue is that we do a lot of news stories and stories that need to be updated sometimes on a yearly basis. So we open the entire project to make the changes. I was hoping that moving forward we could do this in Avid, but maybe this is a case where Premiere will be better tool for updating older FCP projects and Avid will be good for original projects.

thanks!

Walter
