This is the plan.
Director takes fottage, edits it all togther into a final stage in final cut pro.
Now we need to add the nice little effects from After effects.
We need to take the final cut pro footage into after effects, add the required effects, then take it back into final cut pro for outputting to video.
any thoughts on this proccess.
I dont want to have to render out digital formats to import into each apllication becasue quality will be lost.
how the f?

it depends on what effects you are adding in AE. Many of the AE effects can be done in FCP.
Otherwise you will have to output a 'Finalcut Pro Movie' from the export command. This should be uncompressed DV. Then stick in into AE.
Coming back from AE into FCP there is an uncompressed setting that you can export as.
Any amount of effects and filters are gonna hurt the quality more than ouputting the film to the uncompressed dv format.
