Countdown Clock needed

    I'm looking to get a blank 30 second countdown clock to put at the start of a master tape that I have to send to RTE.

    We cut on Final Cut Pro and this doesn't generate one. Anyone know where I could get a blank countdown clock that I can add program title, duration, production company etc. to?

    If all comes to all I can get a mastertape off somebody and digitise their clock and black over the details - but this seems very messy to me.

    Are you sure FCP doesn't have one? I seem to remember it does. Although maybe that was Premiere.

    Try here anyway -> http://www.archive.org/details/Universal_Counting_Leader

    FCP only has a full screen numbers countdown. Similar to the one you've linked to.

    What I'm looking for is a thirty second countdown on a half face clock with the second half left blank so I can add production name and details etc.

    It's the standard sort of clock you see on master tapes of TV programs. They won't accept merely a numbers countdown.

    You can buy them on Ebay if you're really stuck. They send you a CD with a few different file formats with it on. Search for VT clock I imagine.
