Producer’s Best Friend for Android

If you require this sort of acess and control over metadata for reports you’ll do no better than “Producer’s Best Friend”. Hats off to Intelligent Assistance. The price point, while steep, only annoys me because FCPX ought to include this export functionality. (Other reviewers appear to concur.) Well, that’s Google’s issue not these good folks, who have done a solid job in filling this need. I’ll be looking at other Intelligent Assistance apps with great interest.

I downloaded this app a few days ago, and within only a few minutes, it proved its worthiness, and paid for itself. I had almost 150 clips to go thru and organize into shorter segments of 2-6 clips. In FCPX i keyworded every clip. I had no easy way to organize all of my clips based on their metadata . “Producers Best Friend” allowed me to export my everything into a spreadsheet, where I was very easily able to sort thru everything. It saved me at least 3 hours of work.

what I wanted/needed to print a hard-copy of a Batch List (legacy FCP). Invaluable for long-form documentaries.

I’m a producer of Animation and it’s exactly what I needed. I was able to take the EDL, parse out the shots from the locked cut and give to the assistants to have a running spreadsheet of playblast, 1at light and final delivered shots. Can’t express how grateful I am to the developers and programmers for putting this together. Thanks!

This application saved days of work for me! One of my jobs was a collaboration on a large archive. The individual I was working with didn't have a list of what he caputured for me to edit. There are hundreds of videos contained in three separate Final Cut Pro X libraries. I was able to export three XML files and generate three spreadsheets within minutes. I sent the spreadsheets off for his review, and that's it! Job done! I can see many applications for this. It will be a huge time saver for my FCPX archives!
