Capturing

For my first filming, i used a Panasonic HDSD60 camera. To get in onto the computer i had to use a USB lead. First of all, i had to set my own scratch disk on the Mac to have my own folder for Final Cut Express. Do do this, you have to click on 'Final Cut Express', then 'reset scratch disk' and then create a new folder, and save it as your own name.

Then click on 'File' and then 'Capture'. This will then capture the footage from the SD card in the camera. Then you need to drag each sequence down to the timeline in order to edit it.
