Re: Sony EX3 to FCP Workflow Suggestions
by Will Salley on Jan 28, 2009 at 4:19:59 am

To add to Jamie's suggestion - Create a folder on your media drive(s) for each day of shooting and for each camera (if there are multiple cams). From the SXS card, drop and drag the folder named "BPAV" to the corresponding folder for that day. Do not rename the "BPAV" folder or change any of it's enclosed folders. This will keep the file/directory structure intact for future importing, and allow you to free up the card- but only after you have made a back up to another drive! Having 18 hours of footage will be much easier to manage when you have it divided into each days footage.

After your import, you can delete the original media if you need more space, but always keep a backup.
