Description
This one was prompted by Rainer looking at someone's project where they had telecined 35mm 3 perf footage with keycode burn-ins only at the head of the clip for about a second. (For an explanation of 35mm 3perf click here. That page looks at 3 perf from a negative cutter's vantage point, so the illustrations have the film progress from right to left, which is opposite to what it looks like in Final Cut Pro.)
The intended purpose of this plug-in is to burn the keycode into the frame throughout the source clips.
The " °1 " part tells us the current frame is in the first of the two short feet. The short feet have 21 frames each, and the third foot, marked " ° 3" has 22 frames. In window-burns done with evertz gear, the first short foot is indicated by the the little bar being in the top position, the second short foot is indicated by the middle position, and the the third, long foot is indicated by the bar at the bottom. See evertz.com for more information.
The above default would simply act as a footage burn for 3perf, starting with 0 at the first frame of the clip.
Important: This plug-in counts each video frame as one film frame. If your telecine was not done at the same frame rate as the video, you need to use Cinema Tools to reverse-telecine first.
