Eat Pray Love goes from page to screen about Final Cut Pro

"I want to go somewhere where I admire something." Julia Roberts as Elizabeth Gilbert in the new feature film Eat Pray Love - on the basis of Gilbert's best-selling memoir - signaling both their frustration with your current life and their intention, the journey, the famous it will turn.

The film as the book follows Gilbert from New York, to Italy, where your senses enjoy; to India, where you your spirituality; researches and Bali, where love and balance, finds, you looking for.

But that ticket stamping cinematic was a huge challenge for Ryan Murphy and Director Dede Gardner.And travel logistics were your biggest Herausforderung.Gilberts easily from page to screen faithful to translate, lobbying of the filmmakers, to shoot the movie completely spot in chronological order. And after nine months planning, Murphy led intensive Scouting and software prototypes 40 cast and crew members - including Academy Award-winning cinematographer Robert Richardson - generated on a four and a half month rolls production effort, the 422,000 feet of film, or about 70 hours footage.

Left accused in Los Angeles and installation and design of the footage, was first feature film editor Bradley Buecker.Selten is set to this high-profile production an editor without feature experience but experience rich had worked several seasons of television for Murphy for the hit Nip / Tuck and glee shows. "Ryan and I had a bond," says rich in experience."Came as the film together, he said: 'I want you to do this.'"

Experience rich decided to edit the movie almost the same final cut Pro-based editorial workflow that worked so well for the TV series with itself and all its two assistant editors with mirrored Mac Pro and MacBook Pro computers, with Final Cut Studio equip."" Both the Nip / Tuck both shows were the glee reporter and Final Cut Pro has proven a great editing system "experience rich says." "It's my system choice."

Since eat pray love than to produced was introduced a digital intermediate (film added to, digital, posted delivered on film), the distance between the shooting locations and the editors a significant hitch in the workflow.Filmed in Bali, for example, flew to Australia developed (there are no film processors in Bali) format not footage then to EFILM in Los Angeles to color corrected and scanned before it to the editor on a hard disk HD delivered wurde.manchmal would the editors to 7 to 10 days, after it was shot, see so you will need a fast, efficient processing format.

"Technically, the editorial challenge was to maximize efficiency," says rich in experience. "We wanted the ability to see the highest image quality with the lowest possible file size and able to files quickly from laptop to desktop and move from room to room."

The editors found introduced an efficient solution in ProRes 422 (proxy), a new version of the Apple ProRes codec with Final Cut Pro 7.Once arrived newspapers from EFILM Assistant Editor doc Crotzer transcode the files of material for editing would of you of ProRes 422 (HQ) to ProRes 422 (proxy) that organize footage in bins and prepare.

With background export, another new final cut feature, could edit further Crotzer, even then when he was compressed files."This feature many times saved us", says Crotzer.

He adds: "The ProRes codec the basis of our was absolutely instrumental of our editing process and workflow."The quality and the small file sizes allow us the flexibility we wouldn't, with each other Codec.Wir were able to cut keystrokes in ProRes 422 (HQ), who spent again for screening in proxy and a few simple are connected. "

The high quality of proxy images also experience rich made confident he he needed all details looked to precise edits make: "with Robert Richardson as Director of photography, lighting, compositions and quality of the footage that were simply unglaublich.So it was very important to get to surprises when we started up Resing."

"Even at an early stage Studio uses the editing experience rich and his crew final cut, Polish every aspect of the cut."Sound is a big part of our process."On the fly is a buzzing noise in a scene, we can get out, and there is no time to send it to the sound Department, we go in Soundtrack Pro, and twenty minutes later the scene sounds good."

If you needed to footage for the departments of sound and music make compressor the many different types of files as QuickTime movies requested output."We didn't think about whether this section dialog box on the line, 1 and impact on track 2," says Crotzer."We would simply click your setting we would preset compressor, and compressor did the rest."

Export these QuickTime movies, enabled to operate the editorial team with a completely tapeless workflow."We take for granted, the QuickTime is multiformat, anywhere, anywhere that it can be played in to travel anywhere", says rich in experience."It's hands down one of my favorite things about the architecture of the system".

With an efficient editing workflow could experience rich focus, on the completion of his editor's cut."The film includes four different countries Elizabeth Gilbert, so it has an inherently episodic structure," he says."It was a structural challenge to bring what felt at each stop along the way and still the story as a total experience to build."

"As Murphy filmed highly at remote locations, he was not available with during this process to consult experience rich.""" There are advantages and to 8000 miles away from the Director, "experience rich says cons.""The pressure is intense, but it's also a great opportunity, opportunities use and try things you normally wouldn't."

"For the return of Murphy to Los Angeles he saw the movie sections, starting with New York.""" Ryan is a great storyteller, and he has great ideas in the editing room"experience rich says."From time to time, but we were able to überraschen.Ein few of the opportunities that we actually paid.

"It was a great Indian wedding, where you just tons of footage shot würden.Und we cut it together into a song, as a Montage.Es stake Liz Gilbert who just loved this other woman marriage and remembering your eigenes.Und Ryan, although it was very different from what he could have done with the scene."

Reactions from the Studio on the entire processing were also positiv.Und showing, locked and ready to open, took the experience rich time is on his own one-year trip through 70 hours of footage in the editing room had thoughts: "is the story of Liz Gilbert over against the grain go to do something for yourself and a better person when, on the other hand herauskommen.Bearbeitung this film is been this kind of experience for me."
