May 14, 2016 8:29 AM in response to Black Hole 9by Tom Wolsky,WWithout more details of your media probably the best would be to export using the Share menu to master file using ProRes 422.

May 14, 2016 10:55 AM in response to Tom Wolskyby Black Hole 9,Hi tom,
Does that mean I have to export each file within the project individually. I can't find a way of exporting all of the files together...
Also, How do I then compress them to send?
Thank you for your help

May 14, 2016 11:01 AM in response to Black Hole 9by Tom Wolsky,WWhat is it you're trying to give to the editor? Normally the editor is given the original media and edits that. You don't want to recompress anything. Is the editor using FCP or some other application? Is there anything in FCP that you've done that you're trying to send to the editor?

May 14, 2016 11:10 AM in response to Black Hole 9by Tom Wolsky,IS he using FCP or not? Or some other application? What?
Unless you're pulling sondbites you're probably not saving the editor time, and even then, if you're cutting without pad you're not doing him any favors, probably just increasing his frustration. You trally want to send the editor the media with your cut list. You do not want to recompress the media.
How much media are you talking about? Where is the editor? Next door or next continent?

May 14, 2016 11:14 AM in response to Tom Wolskyby Black Hole 9,Hi Tom,
He is using FCP. I was intending on editing this myself but then time hasn't been too kind, nor my laptop so I've asked him for help. I thought it was helpful to send him what I already had but it seems not. The files are huge, ten GB at the minute at least.

May 14, 2016 11:19 AM in response to Black Hole 9by Tom Wolsky,TThat's a lot of media. How many minutes? Did you optimize it? Make sure everything is in the FCP library, all the clips, sound, graphics. Copy the whole library with all the projects and events and edits you made into a hard drive and send it to him. If you have that much nedia, overnight UPS will be faster than uploading and downloading.

it's only twenty mins of footage...

May 15, 2016 6:07 AM in response to Black Hole 9by Tom Wolsky,DDon't optimize if you're going to send the files. It creates very large ProRes files.
