Audio Delivery
Start the export at 00:59:50:00 for 10 seconds of preroll. Picture starts at 1:00:00:00
Include head pop at 00:59:58:00 and tail pop 2 seconds after the last frame of picture
Video formats: Pro Res Proxy or Avid DNxHD
Include your rough audio mix when exporting video. It will be our reference track
Include window burn with timecode and video identifier, placed in a top corner of the frame.
AUDIO DELIVERY
Organize your audio tracks:
- VO
- Dialog
- Production FX – Non dialogue sounds from production (ambience, vehicles, etc)
- SFX – Sound FX added by the picture department
- Music – Score
DO NOT cut lav and boom together on the same track. Different microphones always need to be on their own track in a consistent fashion.
Make sure to include ALL mic options (Boom, Lav, Camera).
Here are detailed articles from our friends at Adobe and Avid on how to export OMF and AAF files from different applications:
- Exporting an OMF from Final Cut Pro
- Exporting an OMF from Premiere
- Exporting an AAF from Premiere
- Exporting an AAF from AVID
When possible, it's better to export the entire audio track(s) instead of individual audio regions.
