FCP X: Export Multi-channel Audio

The Larry Heard Tutorial below  about exporting Multi-channel Audio is useful guide for preparing audio for Post Production for Pro Tools...

When editing it is best to label audio as you go, i.e. Ambience, Music, Dialogue... ADR.

Alternatively you can also export each 'track' (albeit virtual tracks in fcpx) by selecting that audio 'track; on the timeline and exporting each 'track' separately as aiff audio channel, stereo or mono

There are plugins such as X2Pro Audio Convert which 'integrates Final Cut Pro X into the professional audio workflow. It easily moves audio projects to Avid Pro Tools via AAF with embedded or referenced audio media. X2Pro converts an FCP X XML into an AAF file which Avid Pro Tools can open as a session, delivering seamless integration between the two applications'.

Colour Temperature - Short film progress

I've decided since the beginning of the year that I am going to make my Final Major Project in a melancholic blue colour tone to empathise the somber feeling and internal struggle of the lead character, but I am now considering transforming the colour tone into a more warmer tone towards the end of the film when we come across the characters ex-girlfriend.

This is the current colour palette for the majority of the film, however at the end this is what I am thinking of making...

This is not simply a matter of these outdoor scenes looking better with warmer palette, this is also a symbolic meaning. The film has been sad up until this time, at which point our hero finally might have a chance to make things better for himself. And when we find out that this is not going to be the case, I am intending the colour to become slowly colder as the character finally accepts his fate and he discovers that his journey has become all but for naught.
