Project settings for screen recordings in FCP
Hi Everyone...
I have been searching all over the place and as in most cases I end up here with the experts, where I probably should have started in the first place. I just hate bothering you all esp. if it's easy enough that I should be finding the answer on my own!
I am looking for your advice. I remember a long time ago reading or seeing something (that I have now lost) that said the project settings for screen recordings are or should be set up differently than for other projects. I don't remember the reasonings for this...I only remember seeing something about it.
If that is the case, what would be the best project setting, frame rate etc for a Quick Time screen recording for use in a FCP project? Am I even correct in thinking it will need special project settings?
In addition, since the project that I will be using the screen recordings in probably won't have those same project settings - what is the best way to handle that? Export the screen recording out and import it back in as a .mov file? Please forgive me in advance if I'm not using the correct verbiage or I am leaving anything out.
I am not doing a tutorial or anything like that. I only want to use some footage (in a fair use way) to illustrate a point in my video.
Thank you so much any help!
