Case Study: "Boogie Man: The Lee Atwater Story" - Chris Fournelle, FRONTLINE

With the advent of a very mature NLE marketplace, it is no longer certain that an edit will proceed from offline to online with the same non-linear platform. Chris Fournelle, Post Production Director at FRONTLINE's OutPost finishing facility, presents their workflow for Boogie Man: The Lee Atwater Story. This Final Cut Pro project with file-based 24p acquisition, tape-based 30i stock footage, and FCP based graphics  was finished at OutPost in an Avid online on a short turnaround.  Chris will talk about the methods they used and some of the lessons learned in the process.

CHRIS FOURNELLE BIO
Chris Fournelle is the Post Production Director for the PBS weekly public affairs documentary series, FRONTLINE, based at WGBH in Boston, Massachusetts. Chris oversees the day to day post operations for FRONTLINE and manages Outpost's facility operations and their finishing services for a diverse client base that delivers programming to PBS and other major distribution networks.
