生产中的徒步巡逻
节省时间在FCP X
A decision they had made back in June at their planning meeting, 比赛开始前几周, 会有什么不同吗. 如第1部分所述, the team originally aimed to shoot more or less in sequence and put together "mini movies" throughout the day to get a jumpstart on the editing.

We couldn't get very far with the edit until that was finished."

With the footage already organized just as shooting wrapped, finding the right takes at 3 a.m. “要简单得多,”斯特伦普回忆道. 例如, 当 he was searching for a clip with the bigfoot print in the sand he simply selected "bigfoot print in sand" and received a handful of useful clips.
Favorite and rejected scenes organized for 非常高效。 access before editing
Even 当 he didn't assign a specific meaningful name to a clip, the powerful keyword functionality of FCP X enabled him to be able to search clips that were titled something arbitrary like MVI.轻松而迅速地.
