Features and Benefits
With prEdit's Transcript View you can take individual transcripts and:
- easily enter log notes that propogate to all subclips;
- color code them by setting a paper color;
- break them into subclips by typing ‘return’ in the transcript text;
- preview any subclip;
- eliminate subclips that are not useful, without permanently losing the information, using the Good checkbox.
Once your transcripts are processed in the Transcript View you start to build stories from your selects in the Story View by:
- filtering all the subclipped selects; and
- adding each subclip to the Story List.
In the Story List you can:
- rearrange subclips using a thumbnail view, or with speaker names showing;
- continue to refine each subclip, splitting into more granular subclips;
- add a voice over script to the story (prEdit creates a placeholder in the Story list and an AIFF file from the script using Mac OS X's Text to Speech);
- preview the whole story, or select subclips and preview the selection.
When you have a story it can be exported to:
- Final Cut Pro;
- a Final Cut Pro XML file for import into Premiere Pro CS5;
- a zipped XML file for email;
- an Excel spreadsheet;
- a text transcript (with speaker and timecode marks);
- a Voice Over script of temporary audio that needs to be replaced.
In Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro, each “Good” select is added to the project as a subclip in a bin named for the master clip with the logging information and comments entered for it. The new sequence contains the subclips in Story List order with sequence markers containing the person speaking and speech transcript marking the duration of the spoken transcript.
