FCE or FCP to post production to broadcast?

[Anonymous]

Hi. I am currently working on a travel documentary. I am editing in FCE . Should I upgrade to FCP or stay with FCE before approaching a professional post production person/facility for preparation for output to broadcast? TY for your reply.

Totallydepends on what you want to do with it, what the and what thepost production person/facility is doing,broadcastersstandardsare.

What are you doing and what is thepost production person/facility doing? What do you mean by “post production”? That willeffectthe reply greatly.

If you are doing thepost production yourself, think about this:

• Manybroadcasters have a high audiostandard, that may, or may not be hard for you toachievedepending on yoursourcematerial. This is what Sound Track is for.
• Will FCE give you the export options you need? FCP had more than you will know what to do with.
• Does FCE give you the look you want, is live type good enough? Or do you need Motion?
