    (fcp user's) MC workflow question

    (I am a FCP user so pardon me if my question makes no sense)

    I am planning to setup a CG pipeline where each final shots will be

    1920x1080 24P TIFF sequences.

     

    What I would like to do with Media Composer is to

    import  these TIFFs in two format:

    Avid 1:1HD and DNxHD36 for cutting and playback

     

    And I was wondering what would be the easiest way to do this.

    How can I let MC know that these two formats are linked ?

    Do I need to import it as Avid1:1HD then transcode it to DNxHD36 ?

     

    I noticed that Avid also has this awesome looking app called MetaFuze.

    if I transcode my TIFFs with MetaFuz would I be able to generate

    2 files per shot ? (Avid1:1HD & DNxHD36)

    and what would I need to do to tell MC that these two generated files

    are linked ? eg ( sh0001_LOW & sh0001_HIGH )

     

    Once again padon me if my questions seem silly

    although I did my research I couldn't find "full" answers to

    these question and I would very much appreciate if you

    can give me some guide here :)

     

    Thank you veru much

    Import all sequence at DNxHD36, don't move original tiff file(if you move, you must manualy set path for all original sequence when do bach import). After the cutting do bach import for master sequence at 1:1(choose all clip option) this is all.
