In our wrap up of Chapter 1, we learn that "Exporting" is a way of the past in Motion 5. Now, it's all about Sharing. Users of FCP7 will be familiar with Sharing, a great way to not only export your work, but do it in the background, so you can keep working. In this tutorial, Kevin P McAuliffe shows you how to "Share" your final product not only with FCP 7 and FCP X, but also with other NLE's as well.
