Importing Animatics
Once you have imported your project’s conformation XML into Final Cut Pro and completed editing, you will need to export it once again as an XML file to bring it back into your Storyboard Pro project.
NOTE: Refer to your third party software’s documentation to learn how to export the animatic project in an XML file format.
IMPORTANT: You can only reimport a modified conformation XML file into the original project from which it was first exported.
How to import an animatic
- In your original storyboard project, select File > Conformation > Import Animatic Project.
The Import Project window opens.
- Click the Browse button and locate your XML file.
- In the Options section, the Process Audio and Process Captions options are enabled by default, which means that the audio tracks and captions will be conformed as well. Deselect these options if you do not want to conform the audio or captions.
- Click OK to return to the Import Project dialog box.
The Report section displays information relative to the conformation process. If an error happened during the conformation process, this is also where the details relative to this error would appear.
