5 Working With Video
A number of video functions and names have changed since
the release of Logic Pro 7.
This includes the following:
 Exporting a specific song section to a movie is now possible.
 Movie audio tracks can be imported directly into the Arrange window.
 Finding and removing scene markers can be restricted to portions of a movie.
 The new Remove Movie function allows you to completely remove a movie from a
song.
 Many video related menu items and preferences have clearer names.
Working With Movie Audio Tracks
Once a movie has been opened in a song, you can use the Movie sub menu to import
audio from a movie (into Logic) or export audio (from Logic) into a movie. Logic Pro 7.2
enhances these functions in the following ways.
Exporting Audio to a Movie
The Export Audio to Movie command now takes the cycle area into account. To
explain: If a cycle is active when choosing Options > Movie > Export Audio to Movie,
only Audio Regions that fall within the cycle area are bounced. A new QuickTime file,
spanning the cycle area, is created.
This allows you to export a portion of audio to a movie. Imagine a 35 minute project
where you have finished work on the first three minutes. You can now use the locators
to specify a section of audio that you want to export, creating a video file of the same
length, and using the same locator positions. This makes the creation of a (much
smaller) file for your client’s approval a simple, fast task.
