First Assistant is a multi-purpose data management utility for film and video professionals, designed to aid offline editors and assistant editors in the production and post-production workflow. • Manage timecode-based editorial notes for creating asset lists and cue sheets (e.g., for ADR, VFX, stock footage). • Convert whole documents between timecode formats with one click (e.g., 23.98 NDF to 29.97 DF pull-down). • Import from a Final Cut Pro 7 timeline, and export text-based files for Microsoft Excel. • Track scene timings (including page counts, estimated and production timings) during prep and editorial assembly. • Perform versatile sorting, filtering, and summarizing. First Assistant provides two principal document types: • An Editor's Notes document is like a spreadsheet specifically tailored for the needs of an editor or assistant editor. It eases the management of assets and clips in a film or video project for the purposes of creating ADR or VFX lists, stock footage or music cue sheets, and notes for the online editor or colourist. • A Scene Timings document is another type of spreadsheet designed for tabulating page counts and correlating estimated and actual scene durations. It can help a script supervisor to prepare estimates in pre-production, or an assistant editor to report dailies assembly timings during production. In addition, First Assistant provides stand-alone timecode calculator and conversion tool that's always at the ready.
