Final Cut Pro batch
logging spreadsheet
(Requires Microsoft Excel™). I designed this spreadsheet
for logging NTSC video and, based upon my personal experience,
this is much faster than the logger built into Final Cut.
Once a tape, or series of tapes, is logged, save the
spreadsheet as a tab-delimited text file and import
it into Final Cut using File > Import > Batch list. Instructions
are included in the spreadsheet.
This works with all versions of Final Cut starting with version
3. Download size is 24K.
Connecting a
Tascam mixer to Final Cut 5
This 160K PDF, written by Tony Liuzzi, illustrates how to
connect an external Tascam FW-1082 mixer to Final Cut as
an external audio control surface. (8/10/05).
Final Cut Folder Creation Tool
Christian Fessel, an FCP trainer and subscriber from
Germany, wrote this freeware AppleScript to simplify the tedious
task of
creating and naming
folders for each new project.
(It's compressed
in ZIP format.)
It creates a master folder using the project's name (which you
supply). Then, within this master folder are folders for graphics,
audio, projects
and so on. This provides a very fast way to backup all your project
files. The script is editable in ScriptEditor, so you can tune it
for your special needs.
Thanks, Chris, for sharing it with us! You

Gradients
for interesting transitions
These five TIFF files (in ZIP archive) are explained
in a FCP
Newsletter article. They are free for you to use as you
want in creating gradient wipes. However, this download is
big (1.7 MB). These work with all versions of Final Cut
starting with version 3.
