• Take note that SAVE PROJECT
is completely different than
EXPORT. EXPORT is used to
send your movie out to make a
DVD or to upload to YouTube.
• Save is used to save the Final Cut
project strictly as a project file.
STEP 3) Then click
Format: QuickTime
Movie OPTIONS button
STEP 2) Fill in the name
you want to Export the
movie as.
STEP 1) From Final Cut, go
to top menu item FILE >
EXPORT > QUICKTIME
CONVERSION and click.
STEP 4) Change the
SOUND settings. Click
SETTINGS
STEP 5) Change the
FORMAT: from LINEAR
PCM to AAC.
STEP 6) Click OK
button.
STEP 7) Return to
Movie Settings box
and click that OK
button too.
STEP 8) Return to
EXPORT or
(SAVE) box and
click that SAVE
button too.
Exporting your
movie will take
about 10 minutes for
a half hour show.
* In this case it saves
it to my DESKTOP,
but you can save the
file wherever you
want to; external
hardrives, etc.
STEP 9) After the movie is
finished exporting, you have to
locate it wherever you saved it.
To do this you should first
minimize or HIDE the Final Cut
program. Go to the menu item
Final Cut Pro, scroll down and
click on HIDE FINAL CUT
PRO.
• To see the specs or file
size of your movie
RIGHT click on the
movie file. To do this on
a MAC (which doesn’t
have the Right Click
button on the mouse)
you must hold the
CONTROL button and
click on the mouse at the
same time. You should
then see a menu that
looks like this.
• Click GET INFO
Notice the file size difference
between these two. The
innerloopbigfile.mov movie I
exported with the default
settings: EXPORT >
QUICKTIME MOVIE… That
file is twice the size of the
innerloop.mov which we
exported EXPORT > USING
QUICKTIME CONVERSION.
* Just by simply compressing
the sound we reduced the
overall file size by half. This is
key step to keeping your file
sizes small enough to upload
quickly to YouTube.
STEP 10) In order to
open a YouTube,
Vimeo, or Exposure
Room account, you
must first have an e-mail
account. *If you don’t
have an e-mail account,
the easiest way is to get
a Gmail account because
this will automatically
give you a YouTube
account.
* The Advantages and Disadvantages of each:.
YouTube Pros: Everyone uses YouTube, you get a wider audience.
Cons: You only get 15 minute movies and there are ads before your
video starts.
Vimeo Pros: Becoming more and more popular, for more professional
work. No ads. Cons: You only get 500 mb uploads per week. This
means you won’t be able to fit a half hour show on Vimeo without
reducing its quality tremendously.
ExposureRoom Pros: Unlimited space, time uploads. Sleek, no ads,
and very subtle Exposure Room logo. Cons; No one knows about
Exposure Room except professionals. A bit more difficult to use. Not
to be used for commercial reasons. Not good for social networking.
And since it is a relatively new video host, who knows if it will go
bankrupt and your service will be terminated.
STEP 11) Once you
have an email account,
go online to YouTube
and click on the light
blue CREATE
ACCOUNT button.
STEP 12) Fill in the required information: your
Email Address, username, etc. and click the I
ACCEPT button at the bottom.
*the USERNAME is important to consider
because this will become part of the url address
where everyone finds your show. For example all
your videos will show up at:
http://www.youtube.com/dconheels
if you made your USERNAME “dconheels”
STEP 13) Once you
click accept to the
YouTube form you will
be sent an email. So
check your email
account for a message
from account-
verification-
and open it.
STEP 14) Then click on
the activation link.
STEP 15) You should then get another email within a
minute that “Welcomes you to YouTube.” If you open
that message it will give you all the basic directions of
working within YouTube as well as a 2-minute
introduction video link.
STEP 16) If you are not
already sent to YouTube
and automatically
logged in, go there now
and Sign in with your
new Username and
Password.
STEP 17) In the top bar men inside YouTube
click UPLOAD.
STEP 18) Then when you click
the UPLOAD VIDEO button
again, a window pops up letting
you locate the movie file you
want to upload to YouTube. In
this example the movie is on
my Desktop called innerloop.
STEP 19) Select the movie file
and click OPEN at the bottom
of the window.
*Your video will then
automatically start uploading to
YouTube and the Progress will
be shown here.
STEP 20) This will take a
while so in the meantime you
can fill out the information
about your movie including
TITLE and DESCRIPTION,
TAGS, CATEGORY, and
whether you want your movie
viewable to the PUBLIC or
PRIVATE.
STEP 21) Make sure to SAVE
changes.
* Make sure you DO NOT
navigate away from this page
while the movie is uploading,
otherwise you will get this
warning and your upload
progress will be lost.
STEP 22) You can go to FILE
> New Window and open up a
completely new Internet
window to work in.
STEP 23) To customize the
look of your YouTube website
go to the top menu bar to the
right there is a light blue tab
with your USERNAME. In this
case it is username rocexpert,
click and you will get a menu.
One of those items is
CHANNEL.
STEP 24) Under the
SETTINGS tab you can then
give a name for your YouTube
Channel and assign TAGS.
*Tags allow people to search
Google or YouTube for your
video according to topic,
category, or catch word.
STEP 25) Under the Themes
and Colors tab you can adjust
the look of your YouTube
Channel as well as add a picture
to the background.
To add a picture use the
ADVANCED OPTIONS blue
link.
I used the picture to the right to
make the Channel background
below.
STEP 26) After your video is
finished uploading to YouTube
you will be able to go to either
your CHANNEL or VIDEOS
link in the MY ACCOUNT
menu and see it there.
