How to create or export a logo in Illustrator CS5 with an alpha channel for use in Final Cut Pro 6?

To all those who can help you:

I created a logo using Illustrator CS5 and must import it in a video sequence in Final Cut Pro 6.  The logo has a transparent background.  It seems that FCP 6 will import the files native .ai and .tiff files, but when I opened the 6 FCP, the alpha (transparent background) is no longer there; There is just the logo on a white background.  Y at - it a setting or a market I'm missing?

I need to insert images of HAVE in Final Cut Pro and Motion quite frequently.

The best way I found to get a picture of IN Final Cut is:

1. Select / copy all objects in the doc to HAVE it.

2. create a new file with a transparent background in Photoshop and paste.

3 merge layers and make sure that the mode is RGB.

4 save out as one. PNG or. PSD.

5. drag the result in Final Cut (or movement).

6 resize and position the result to taste.

Attempt to export directly from... to PSD or. PNG is a wasted effort and the results are not even necessarily recognized by Final Cut.

Yes, there are Photoshop and it's a few extra steps... but it works like a charm.

In addition, when you create a new file in Photoshop, you can initially set its size that matches the aspect ratio of your video. For example, if you prepare a video HD, you could set the size of 1280 x 720 and position the elements GOT to where they are supposed to be in the frame. You can set the items HAVE precisely by cutting and pasting a picture of your video into Photoshop and positioning HAVE in place on another layer above the video layer. Delete the video layer before you save it as a. PNG or. PSD and it will appear in Final Cut exactly where it should be.

  • How to create a PDF/X1a on a Mac? (with or without iWork)

    Hi all
    I don't have an idea what is a "PDF/X1a.
    I know how to create or convert PDF files on a mac, with the Preview app and the iWork.

    But a "PDF/X1a? What is c?

    Anyone know how to create or convert a "PDFX/X1a?

    Thanks to you all.

    Here is an explanation:

    https://www.prepressure.com/PDF/basics/PDFX-1A

    Frankly, I didn't know there are different "flavors". I create .pdf for years without knowing or worry about this. I just use an excerpt:

    Or, if you are in a document Pages (iWork as long that is not really exist anymore - there are separate applications: Pages, Numbers, Keynote), use the export as PDF option.

    Have never heard of someone that they were not able to read the PDF, I sent as an attachment.

  • I have a project in iMovie HD6 and want export to Final Cut Pro.  I see that it is not possible from the previous questions, but is it possible that I could maybe create a dvd of the iMovie project and then who import in Final Cut?

    I have a project in iMovie HD6 and want export to Final Cut Pro.  I see that it is not possible from the previous questions, but is it possible that I could maybe create a dvd of the iMovie project and then who import in Final Cut?  I just want to make a new trailer for the project.

    What you suggest is possible but it takes software and third-party quality loss.

    Instead, export a QuickTIme movie. If you have a choice of codecs, choose Apple Intermediate Codec. You can save it where you want it-maybe in the movies.

    Then import the movie into FCP as a clip.

    Good luck.

  • How to create a character of text in Illustrator by Script?

    I want to add a Rectangle around characters.

    With indesign: I can create the outline of the characters,: ex: Dim oaPols = oRange.CreateOutlines (False)

    But with Illustrator can only create TextFrame shape.

    How to create a character of text in Illustrator by Script?

    Thank you all.

    AHA!

    You can duplicate your original text block, put a coat of any color on the range of text you want and then create the contours of this copy. Now, the characters who are all developed in transparent traces will be in their correct positions and contours more will be your flagged - items you can delete the rest.

  • How can I export projects, including securities, in Final Cut Pro XML format?

    When I export a Premiere Pro project in Final Cut Pro XML, I get the error message:Article synthetic (Martin Luther King) translated not, Slug is used as a placeholder.

    Graphs created with the title of the first have no equivalent XML language/control that would be compatible with Final Cut.

    Your best bet is to recreate all titles in Final Cut, or replace all the titles of the first with the Photoshop files that can then be used in Final Cut

    I did some research and found you create with Acrobat Catalog, but can not find any sign of it in the installation of Adobe Acrobat 10. How can you get Adobe Catalog?

    Is still used in pdx (does still work with Adobe Acrobat reader 10) or people simply use the advanced search for adobe reader 10 actorbat with which you can search the directory of pdf files. ?

    This feature is in Acrobat Pro. Acrobat Suite also includes Acrobat Pro and other Adobe applications.

    Acrobat Standard doesn't have a catalog.

  • How better for import of movement 5 projects in Final Cut Pro

    I use for my projects:

    -Motion 5 (5.1.2)

    -Final Cut Pro X (10.1.4)

    -Compressor (4.1.3)

    -Mavericks OSX on a Macbook Pro 2 GHz and 8 GB RAM

    -The images that requires a lot of editing, green screen and the particle effects

    I had a question about what would be the best way to import Motion 5 sequences into a Final Cut Pro project?

    Specifically, I started using both programs as a hobby, and I learned how to post Motion projects in Final Cut Pro as a generator.

    However, as most of my work involves a broad green screen and the effects of particles of edition, all the sequences essentially have to go through Motion. (as I am skeptical of 'Tools' Final Cut Pro when I can do more with proposal anyway)

    So is the only way to import sequences of movement is made by a generator in Final Cut Pro?

    I feel like there should be (and it might, like why I'm curious) a less encumbering way to import video edited between the movement in addition to hundreds of generators in Final Cut Pro.

    Using the method of generator, it's what I do, and I was wondering if I missed somewhere where I can import media motion editing in Final Cut Pro.

    Thanks in advance for your time and help

  • Problems to export a sequence in Final Cut Pro XML... ideas?

    I hope someone can shed some light on a problem that only seems to be one with first Pro CS5.5.2.  Every time I try and export a unique sequence of a project of multi sequence in Final Cut Pro XML to return to fix the XML from the DaVinici file is a very large XML file that lists each sequence in the project and all files used by each sequence.  Rather than simply describing the sequence selected when I go to file > export > Final Cut Pro XML.

    I'm at a loss as to what is at the origin of the problem and have vainly what follows:

    • Delete all files in rendering
    • Project > remove unused
    • Media preference cache cleaning
    • Re-save the project under another name
    • Import the calendar one at a time into a new project
    • full reboot
    • Copy the contents of a sequence to a new timeline using a different setting that is all deadlines are Black Magic XDCAM 1080p25 fps to own Prems XDCAM 1080p25 fps

    None of these answers gave no success so far, but he has worked with other projects in the past on this machine.

    Details of the system are: 12 Core 2010 Mac Pro 64 GB memory, OSX Lion, Master Suite CS5.5 (fully updated), black magic Deklink Extreme HD card, Nvidia Quadra card and an ATI Radeon 1 GB card standard.

    Any help that anyone can throw at the problem would be welcome.

    Thank you

    Well, after some research, I found the disappointing answer to my problem.

    Mainly down to my own ignorance that has just begun the process of transition in Premiere Pro and partly down to how XML and the XML Export options are processed first.  In any case, I thought that as Final Cut Final Cut Pro XML Export option would work in a manner similar that is exported XML has been selected only sequence.  I had made this assumption in part as other export as export Media options are specific selection and not the project globally.

    All this means that it made for a very difficult workflow in terms of using color classification apps like DaVinci.  Yes there are tools like those produced by the red giant for the ranking within the first large but personally I find them slow to use compared to a dedicated system, with adequate control surface, and while many are not as versatile as an application dedicated in my humble opinion.

    I guess the other reason, he took was simply down to the fact that in many instances of first if something is global by default as the importation of another project you have the option to select the project or a sequence and a similar approach is being implemented in dynamic linking, which is great.

    I think it would be great if Adobe would implement the option to export only a single sequence in XML format for round trip for the purposes and of course keep the full export of the project which I'm sure because many will be useful.  It would also be useful if the XML Version 5 implementation, as this should allow the use of other third party XML tools as excellent Media copy 3.0 Atomic duck to get a report or copy files related to a project or a sequence based on a universal XML file. As well as extremely versatile and powerful return options.

  • Problem creating an event in Final cut Pro

    Hello

    I am running Final Cut Pro 10.2.3.

    I created a new library, but when I imported my videos, then in a folder called "smart Collections".

    This folder has never appeared before.

    When I tried to create a new event, the clips remained in smart Collections folder.

    I couldn't tell the program to duplicate clips in the new event.

    What is going on?

    I deleted the new library and started again.

    I deleted the new library, restart Final Cut Pro.

    The problem persisted.

    Help, please.

    Guy

    When you create a library, an event is created as well as smart collections featured med goes into the event and can also go in smart collections. You can't have a library without an event which takes place in the media. Maybe you can post a screenshot of what appears in your browser.

  • Final Cut Pro export by coding distributed in the compressor projects

    Hi all!

    It is known that "Send to compressor" thanks to Final Cut Pro does not allow you to make it through several computers. Distributed aka of encoding.

    According to the description of App Store of the compressor "-speed up encoding in Final Cut Pro by choosing a group of shared export computers.»

    Presumably, this indicates that you should be able to export a Final Cut Pro project and make it through distributed computing or shared computers.

    Can someone please tell me - is it possible or what I have wrong? Distributed encoding by dragging a file to compressor and made it work on distributed encoding.

    I use the latest version to date of Final Cut Pro and compressor.

    Thank you!

    Jimmy

    Hey Jimmy.

    Despite what the description of the App Store might give to think, I refer you to this support document, which explicitly said there is no treatment distributed via FCP X.

    All the best,

  • Apple "final cut pro 7", high res Pro 422lt 1920 x 1080 (odd) clips, is this gradual?, no 1080 progressive setting sequence, how can I ensure that I have the best setting of the timeline for my clips

    Apple "final cut pro 7", high res Pro 422lt 1920 x 1080 (odd) clips, is this gradual?, no sequence definition 1080 progressive

    How can I make sure that I have the best setting of the timeline for my clips. I did all the settings of Mount clips but there is no progressive setting for 1080 p. Images originally dslr Nikon that I used mpeg streamclip to convert to prores. Thanks for your help!

    The frame for you size source of material is HDTV 1080i (16:9). That only sets the size of the image, not the domination of the field, it's what makes progressive or interlaced. The reason it's labels with the 'i' is that when FCP7 was abandoned by Apple, they have never updated the software in order to take account of 1080 p contents.

    To make your progressive sequence, set the dominant field to None.

    In your screenshot of the properties of the element for your clip to the source, the material is interlaced. At the original camera file interlaced or progressive?

    Also, the fps footage was actually 30 original and 29.97 not standard?  30 images/s is very limited its use.
