What does this tool do?

This tool allows you to create an VFX shot list from a sequence file. Simply upload an XML or EDL file from your sequence and export the list as PDF or CSV (e.g. for MS Excel, Google Sheets or Apple Numbers).

어떤 파일 형식을 업로드할 수 있나요?

  • EDL - Edit Decision List CMX3600 (.edl)
  • XML - Final Cut 7 (.xml) [Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve]
  • FCPXML - Final Cut Pro XML (.fcpxml) [Experimental]
  • CSV - Comma-separated values (.csv) - preset_edl.csv

Add more data with ALE files

You can upload ALE files to automatically add more technical metadata to your VFX sheet. When merging metadata, be sure to select a merge option that is unique.

Create VFX Shot IDs

This option allows you to automatically generate shot IDs. There are several options to choose from, but most of them require additional metadata from ALEs to work.

Add thumbnails

For a better overview, the tracker document should be provided with thumbnails or preview screenshots. This step can be partially automated, and it is not necessary to capture each frame manually. There are several ways to do this:

  • Extract images from a video using our image extraction tool.
  • Use our Marker Converter to generate a script (with ffmpeg) you can run locally. To do this: Open the Marker Converter and select "Convert clips from EDL to markers (.edl)" and select "ffmpeg Shell Script: Markers to Stills (.sh)". Then download and run the script.
