Does Application X work with Application Y?

Does Shake work with Final Cut Pro 4.5?
Does Motion work with Final Cut Express?
Does Compressor work with iMovie?

These are very common questions and I get these questions so often that I'm going to type the reply here to save me time in the future. The answer is very simple. Some applications have workflows between each other, such as round-tripping from Final Cut Pro > Color > Final Cut Pro. Obviously such workflows would not be possible with the above-mentioned scenarios but at its core, each application has the ability to import and export media files and it is just the simple case of exporting a QuickTime from one to the other and back. The "Send To" option is doing exactly the same thing in some cases, just automatically.
