Remotely Editing in Final Cut on your iPhone

Being able to remotely monitor renders and edits, is a major timesaving workflow that can really speed up production.

In addition to being able to upload client previews, you can obviously edit through any application on the the host computer.

I like using the term editing at a red light, because although i don’t advise you edit while driving, I do use red light time to monitor edits or quickly catch and correct small mistakes during production.

Couple of apps that let you remote your computer, I use log me in. You can setup an account for free, and works at decent speeds over 3g.

Although only recommend for extremely tight deadlines, patients is required – especially when over a 3g connection.

Install on your Mac or PC. You can get the iPhone version from the AppStore. Link your accounts and your good to go.

If you’re on the same wifi network , I use Jaadu.

For your computer setup, Go to Screen Sharing setup and enable remote access under VNC. Setup a password , and your ready to remotely monitor and control.

Those are just a couple of ways you can use an iPhone for remote monitoring and editing, on the go. Thats it for this episode of pixil.info, see ya next time.
