H.264 into FCP convert to Apple ProRes?
Hello -
I'm attempting to find out how to go about importing a H.264 movie file into my AppleProRes based project and
edit a small video and audio section into it, then re-export it for the purposes of lining it up with a separate mix - all of this is to be
screened in two days.
At first I thought I could just cut the H.264 file, render and export that - but it needs a bit of time to render
and then I thought - should I convert the footage and how should I convert the footage?
Any ideas? The reason behind all of this is to save time with a smaller (4 gig file = H.264) as opposed to my original 136 gig file.
There's no time to go back to the original to make small changes.
Every and any idea is appreaciated!
Thanks!!
