Last week we posted an example of a smooth and well-planned P2 shooting workflow. Well, Shane Ross has just posted Part3 of his quickly growing tutorial series on P2 production. In this edition, he goes into detail how the production team used the P2 Store card reader/hard drive to dump the contents of P2 cards quickly, before being copied off to external disk storage.
One interesting thing Shane mentions is how much simpler it is to mount and copy files from the P2 store on PC vs a Mac. (This isn’t any fault of OSX, per se, but rather the design and operation of the P2 store. Seeing things like this and the fact that there is no P2 Viewer for the Mac, it seems that the P2 development team must have been largely PC-based…)
And at the bottom of Shane’s post, you’ll find tips for importing P2 footage into FCP, as well as video tutorial on the subject he’s created for ProAppTips. Excellent info, many thanks to Shane for taking the time to relay his experiences.

What’s with the HVX love fest on this blog?
Not an HVX lovefest. You must be new here. ;-)
Rather, there are a lot of Panasonic P2 workflow questions and concerns by people just now starting to use this new camera, and it’s relevant to talk about it. Want to talk about some other camera or format? Then just go ahead and send on in a hot tip to info@freshdv.com, and we’ll be happy to take a gander at it.
Oh, and take a look past the first page, you’ll figure out pretty quickly that we blog about a lot more than Panasonic products. As we should. :-)

If I worked with HDV, i’d be talking about my HDV workflow. But I am not, I am working with DVCPRO HD footage shot with the Panasonic Varicam and two HVX-200 cameras. There is a lot of confusion as to the workflow of getting footage from the camera into FCP for editing. I hope to help people figure that out.
If and when I work with HDV, I will post my workflow and solutions to working flawlessly with HDV.
Love it? I hate that it makes dozens of clips…every time the camera is started and stopped. That many clips is making it difficult to sort thru the footage.
But I understand that is an issue with HDV too…
