FCP X: Import Media From Camera, Camera Card, Hard Disk and iPhone [u] [video]

[This is an excerpt from a recent on-line video webinar: “FCP X: Media Management” which you can download here in our store, or as part of our Video Training Library.]

[ This movie was updated Feb. 5, 2016, to fix errors regarding how AVCHD media is handled by Final Cut Pro X.]

Media management is defined as: “the process of organizing, importing and keywording media prior to and during editing.” Sounds simple, but we get more questions about media management in Final Cut Pro X than any other subject. So, this week, our goal is to answer all your questions.

In this webinar, Larry Jordan looks at:

• Where to store media on your system
• How to organize media
• How to move libraries, media and projects
• Which import options to use for your projects
• How to use favorites and keywords to track all your clips after import
• When files should be stored in a library or referenced separately
• How to consolidate libraries
• How to create libraries from existing events and projects
• How to change library preference settings
• How to change where media and render files are stored

In this short video excerpt, Larry shows the best way to import media from a camera, camera card, hard disk or iPhone into Final Cut Pro X.
