[Robbie Comeau]

ok guys, please give me some advice, im shooting an hour long movie, (maybe more)

and im in final cut.

A couple things i wanna no, how can i orgranize all my fotoage in a nice orederly fashion, movie style way? i meen i wanna go shoot a scene today, thats like the last scene in the movie, i cud capture it, edit it, and then movie it way down in the timeline, or can i do something else? like put it in it's own scene tab, or a new file?

any other suggfestions on settings in fcp?

You might try Shane Ross' DVD. I haven't watched it myself but it sounds right up your alley:

I would wait and edit after everything is shot and captured. I label all my shots by scene and take numbers so I just have to take the best takes and put them in order and make a rough cut as I place things in the timeline and then go and make revisions from there.
