Editing with Final Cut Pro 9 Once your source clips have been captured and prepared, you can edit them in Final Cut Pro. However, there are a number of issues to consider before you begin editing material that originated on film. This chapter covers the following: • About Easy Setups and Setting the Editing Timebase (p. 143) • Working with 25 fps Video Conformed to 24 fps (p. 144) • Displaying Film Information in Final Cut Pro (p. 146) • Opening Final Cut Pro Clips in Cinema Tools (p. 150) • Restrictions for Using Multiple Tracks (p. 150) • Using Effects, Filters, and Transitions (p. 151) • Tracking Duplicate Uses of Source Material (p. 157) • Ensuring Cut List Accuracy with 3:2 Pull-Down or 24 & 1 Video (p. 158) About Easy Setups and Setting the Editing Timebase Cinema Tools installs Easy Setups that were created to make setting up Final Cut Pro convenient for Cinema Tools users. When you select an Easy Setup in Final Cut Pro, your sequence presets, capture presets, device control presets, and external video presets are all set for you so that you don't have to select them individually. Cinema Tools users may want to take advantage of these Easy Setups: • 23.98fps from DV PAL: Choose this Easy Setup to capture PAL video and to set the editing timebase to 23.98 fps. This option assumes you will conform the captured video to 23.98 fps. • 24fps from DV PAL: Choose this option to capture PAL video and to set the editing timebase to 24 fps. This option assumes you will conform the captured video to 24 fps. • 23.98fps from DV NTSC: Choose this option to capture NTSC video (in the non-drop frame timecode format) and to set the editing timebase to 23.98 fps. This option assumes you will reverse telecine the captured video to 23.98 fps. 143
