Pinocchio is on Fire
The Mark Bradford Experience site we were able to work on is live finally. Many thanks to Jill Brandt and Al Laus for their help in shooting this. Thanks to Resource for allowing us to be a part of it. Check it out! Duality (linked directly to) is my favorite part, I'm being partial here as we got to offer some input on how to push video in some different ways here for a unique experience.

The General Specific Trailer
The General Specific Trailer from Jeremy Hughes on Vimeo.
The movie we've been working on since Fall is wrapping up and we should be ready to debut it locally on Memorial Day weekend. In terms of crew, this was an extremely light movie production and its exciting to see how well it's turning out.

Proper Audio Syncing in FCP
A couple months back I posted a little note about how to get nested audio into Soundtrack Pro from FCP and I have a better method that is surefire and doesn't take much longer. You can bring this into play at any point along the workflow but at the start is the best so you dont have to even think about how it might effect edits.
This all works whether you are syncing with Pluraleyes or doing it manually with a slate and is pretty easy.
1. I've found depending on your time and computer speed you can either a) batch convert into Prores ahead of time/on import or you can wait until you sync.
2. Sync your timelines up with Pluraleyes or by hand. One thing, if its interview footage, that can save you time and give you a little boost in logging better is to group takes into single timelines. Make sure your timelines all match with the correct codec you are using for your workflow, i.e. Prores HQ 1920x1080
3. Here's really the last step already, select all the timelines you have created and set them up with Media Manager to render out. I use referenced Quicktime clips so I dont need to rerender everything.
4. Reimport all the new clips you just created and you're ready for editing. If you decide to do this as a later step, for instance, if you are nesting sequences, you can drill down to the timeline you need to condense and media manage it into a referenced clip.
