Sequence Clip Reporter generates an Excel Spreadsheet with:

“Sequence Clip Reporter automates one of the more boring processes in postproduction – generating a clip report for music and video clearances,” says Intelligent Assistance’ President Philip Hodgetts. “Once again we’re proud to bring another feature from Avid’s Media Composer toolset to Final Cut Pro users, while improving the feature in the process.”

Reports can be further processed in Excel for formatting and additional detail, if required.

Sequence Clip Reporter joins Intelligent Assistance’s recently released exceLogger for merging Final Cut Pro XML and Excel spreadsheets for advanced logging and miniME for exploring and remapping hidden QuickTime metadata from Final Cut Pro XML to Final Cut Pro projects or Excel spreadsheets.
