Many, many thanks to all who replied!!! Yes, Studio Artist is the way to - Bobbo, yes, my mind was blown. Confession time: I'll be doing the editing on a PC (that's what I have at home, for budget reasons) probably using Premiere 6.5 (or Avid Xpress 3.5, if I can figure it out....) and then import it via QT to SA and will add the final "touch" on a G4 here at work. Any issues I should keep in mind while doing this? Again, many thanks. I will let You know when the project's finished.
