V. Printing to tape: Page 1 of 4 Final Cut Pro 3 has two mechanisms for printing digital video to videotape. The first allows users to simply play their sequence in the Canvas window while simultaneously recording on a VCR deck or camera. The second is the Print to Tape command, which also requires a VCR deck or camera, but allows users to add some special effects as they export their final projects. A VCR deck or video camera with FireWire is required for either method. The equipment must be hooked up to the Macintosh computer on which Final Cut Pro 3 is loaded, following manufacturer's instructions. A fresh tape should be inserted into the camera or VCR deck, and they should be ready to record. In the case of the camera, this means turning the camera's settings to VCR. If special effects or transitions are used in the finished sequence, it should be rendered before proceeding, as discussed in Module II (video transitions).
