FCP may or may not work... But using the BlackMagic Media Express capture software that came with the device will work for sure.You can capture it as a Quicktime and then open it in FCP after. Deco On 12/29/14 3:01 PM, "Gene Youngblood" wrote: > Friends, I¹m taking an HDMI signal out of m

Bart, I would say the following: Will the filmmaker feel the film has an unfair chance at you festival? Yes, they may feel that. You in fact will want to see the finished film, it is a film you already know about and are interested in. - so yes it does increase the filmmaker¹s

Okay, perhaps this might add a bit more perspective. I doesn't matter how many stops video or film may have. It doesn't matter how indistinguishable the two may "look" (I assume as a digital file on a computer, or monitor not projected on their intended format in a theatre). What we are looking

I think Tim was confused and didn¹t realize that you always have your links as part of your digital signature and that the links don¹t have anything to do with your post and are not related to ³making film.² On 10/7/11 1:04 PM, "Matt Helme" wrote: > I meant you could always make film.Not su
