Can we just drop it? Or can you send me the link so I can investigate? Second of all this is fraught with potential pitfalls. What you most likely read about is how to export a timeline from one NLE to the other (and sometimes translate it with Resolve) so first of all, it doesn’t give us the whole project.
Why is that? I read on the internet that it’s easy to move a project from one NLE to the other. This is more than we can do in an email or text exchange so let’s set up a time to chat or Zoom or Facetime and discuss options. There’s a lot more in the answer to this question you have just asked of me than one or two words can explain so just trust me as the post-production professional that I am that this isn’t really doable in the manner that you expect and let’s come up with another alternative to get this job done. There is also a long answer if you need to get into more detail as to why this isn’t easy, often doesn’t work and can end up costing more money than you might save.įor this job we need to move the project from insert one NLE here to insert other NLE here and maybe back again. Some of these answers are just repeating a variation of the same information just in a slightly different way.įor those wanting to use this information:įirst I provide a short answer that you can give to the person asking you to accomplish this task. Often that original poster was an inexperienced editor, a post supervisor or someone working in the post-production chain who had been assigned the task of making this move happen.Īs a service to the post-production community, I thought I would provide this list of stock answers to some of the frequently asked questions that come with wanting to move from one NLE to another and often back again. What the discussion usually evolved into after that (or should I say devolved into) was several folks saying that the hassle wasn’t worth it as well as others explaining you can move timelines around but not whole projects even though whole projects is what the original poster usually wanted.
And believe it or not, once I saw VEGAS Pro in the conversation. Usually it was some version of moving Adobe Premiere Pro to Avid Media Composer or vice versa but sometimes Final Cut Pro was involved in the conversation. One question that I saw pop up on a lot of Internet forums and Facebook groups last year (and some already this year) had to do with moving “projects” from one non-linear editing system to another.
