You might try getting the offline editor to use StageTools Moving Picture www.stagetools.com and install it yourself.

 

When the AFE comes over you should get the keyframes.

 

You can use a demo to prove the concept before you spend any license fee payers' money on it ;-)

Conversation: Avid Pan and Zoom
Subject: Avid Pan and Zoom

Hi List-
I'm finishing a 60 min SD doc next week on Nitris (7.6 QFE 2a) that has been cut on an Avid Adrenalin. As the doc is about a photographer and his pictures. The offliner has used Avid Pan and Zoom to linked files imported from DVD. These are all large Tiff files.

I understand from support that the AVX that is Avid Pan and Zoom is not supported by DS. A conform of such an effect just gives you a blank AVX clip effect on top of filler. What I am looking for is a workaround or something that I can get the offliner to do prior to my online day to help out the conform process. (There are hundreds of these Tiff files in the programme)

I was considering asking the offliner to put on another track the linked photo stills in position with just a guide DVE move on them. E.g. right to left / top to bottom etc. I could then load in a guide playout or ref. movie to match the exact moves.

Anybody done this before? What's the best workflow offline - Nitris? (I plan on using AAF / AFE)
