[Avid-L2] Back on MC

 

Hey all - 


It's been a LONG time since I have had a gig on MC...mainly because all the MC houses in my region went to FCP and then to Premiere.

Anyway, a client is bringing over a drive with material and a project file for a gig started on Symphony (not sure what version).  I have MC6.5.2.  So, a couple of "old brain refresher questions" (not in front of the system right now):

Will there be a version/platform issue?

Avid projects live in the Avid Projects folder and I believe that is in the Library folder on my Mac (10.7.5), correct?  So I can just copy his project file over and it will show up in Shared Projects?

As far as media goes, if I have to copy over his media how does on relink in MC? Will the system look for the media files on available drives on start up?

I did a really down and dirty audio cutdown of a 13 minute piece to 6 minutes on (yes, really) iMovie on my iPad in my hotel and on the plane yesterday.  Exported as an m4v.  I am assuming that transcoding to a ProRes  file via MPEG Streamclip is needed so I can have this cut as a reference?

Thanks in advance.  Actually really looking forward to getting back on the Media Composer and test my memory and muscle memory!

Scott
