MessageKevin's right on this. What you send to the producers is an audio CD
with each cue recorded as a separate stereo track and labelled with the SMPT
stamp.
It's OK to do the original composing in MBT but once your mixing down you need
to switch to seconds and frames. Remember to set the right frame rate as well.
NTSC is 30, PAL is 25 and film is 24.
As for playing the video, its imported as two parts, the pictures and audio.
The audio is loaded into a standard audio track and the pictures are shown in
the video pain. The important thing to realise is that video playback can
seriously slow down your machine so if your working alone, without sighted
assistance, delete the video in the video pain. The audio will stay behind
which is all you need. If you have to have the pictures there and things slow
up then set the video to play back with a low resolution (320x240) and disable
thumb nails.
The cakewalk help has a lot on video playback so you should read this if you
haven't already.

The video features don't really need to be "accessible," SINCE YOU CAN'T EDIT
VIDEO in Sonar. all you need to do is watch the video so that you know your
music is in sync to it. However, when you export your project, you don't
export it with the video. it will be up to the client to lay the music back on
their original video. The video is just a reference while you're working.
Chances are, you won't even need it much unless your sighted assistant wants to
be able to watch it as the music goes along.
Anyone else, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on this. I've never
done a video project before but have read a little about it.

Subject: [ddots-l] Question about Video production
Hi all,
I got a business proposal from a TV channel to write music for 12 episodes
of documentary on a historical subject.
Before I start thinking to accept it, I just want to figure out how much
access we have to the video futures of Sonar with Cake Talking.
Even though I will be working with a sited person, I like to have freedom
as much as possible. I would be more then happy to hear any thoughts, ideas,
opinions and directions. Is there anything in Cake Talking's tutorials on
video production that I might be missing?
Caglar
