Linear Questions
What do I need to save my offline edit decision list as?
Answer:EDL’s should be provided on a Hard Drive. We would like a CMX 3600 A mode EDL with B-Roll indication. Layers need to be split into separate EDLs. If you would like more EDL information, Contact us. If you offlined on an Avid, it is useful to bring the whole project in on a zip, in case there is a problem with your EDLs.
Can I create my text at home and transfer it into your character generators?
Answer:We are capable of importing text messages for simple repetitive pages; otherwise it is easier in the long run for us to type in and format your font before your edit at a special font entry rate.
