Hi all-

I put my hand up for a 3D film, and am finding - now that the files are coming in - that a very robust methodology is required for any sense of sanity.

Does anybody have any tricks and tips for getting files sorted and squared away so that you can adapt and refine an edit without too much darn drama?

As the files are all image sequences they import into the suite as gfx files with no reel# and a default t/c of 0.

Apart from an elaborate naming and filing system for replacing/upgrading render passes, what can I do to protect my cut??

Your input is much appreciated. Best tip gets a pork bun!! Yum cha!! wooooo!

Are you doing it with Avid or FCP?

started in fcp just last week, simply because I've got it at home...I do prefer avid, but don't own it :(

I was going to suggest that you might like to contact Henry Karjalien, who was an assistant on King Kong - in fact he was the librarian I believe. But that was an Avid project, and sadly the management tools that they were using don't exist on FCP.
