Is there a good collaborative option for two people to work in FCP?

A colleague and I would like to start working collaboratively on Final Cut Pro libraries, on larger projects it would be great to both be using a library from the cloud and both edit projects using proxy footage. Is this possible? Does anyone have a good workflow/setup for a team editing solution? I've seen software like PostLab but not quite sure how this works?


Any help would be appreciated.

You cannot work with the library in the cloud. It has to be brought down from the cloud, used, and put back. Another way is to use transfer libraries, small libraries that you make just to pass content back and forth, projects, events, whatever work you want to share. This can be done via email, messaging, Dropbox if you like that, or using Blip. The important thing is to keep the same media including proxies and caches externally in both locations to keep the library as trim as possible.


PostLab has an excellent reputation but I have never used it myself.
