iChat Theater
Here’s a great way to collaborate on your project by sharing the video.
New with Final Cut Pro 7 is the ability to share your video with others via iChat. Apple calls this the iChat Theater. Here’s how it works:
- Start iChat.
- Connect to the person you want to collaborate with. The person at the other end needs a camera-equipped system. This technique won’t work if the other person has only audio.
- Switch back to Final Cut.
- Load the sequence you want to have that person view.
- Select View > iChat Theater > Start Sharing. Starting playing your sequence. The other person will see and hear your sequence play on her system, while you will see and hear her. Your video will also appear in a small window in your iChat screen.
- Navigate around your Timeline as normal; the other person will see everything that‘s displayed on your Canvas. However, she won’t see you until you select View > iChat Theater > Stop Sharing.
