Welcome to this tutorial! We'll be working in Compressor, but first, let's start in Final Cut Pro to show how to get to Compressor. Here, I have some footage from a car commercial I shot. We’ll set an endpoint and an out point as if this was our final project and we wanted to convert it to a different format.
By doing this, Final Cut Pro will pull the footage into Compressor.
