    Hello:

    We professionally produce a successful podcast related to digital video and are planning on doing an Avid vs FinalCut Pro segment. Would someone from this group be willing to “duke it out” (for lack of a better description) with a FinalCut Pro user on the show? We wanted to take a creative approach to discussing the features and downsides of each software package instead of the review type of segments we normally see, hear or read. There would be the two users and then a moderator in the middle going over the features of each product and which lacks what over the other, etc., etc.

    Please let me know if this would interest anyone then we can go on with the details.

    I just started listening to the show a few weeks ago.. and it’s great. I sometimes forget that I have music on my iPod because of the podcasts I listen to.

    I wish I could enter your comparison.. but I am actually going over that debate right now (which NLE to own). I figure I’d go with the Avid since that is what I’m comfortable with. But I still look forward to your results.

    Good luck!

    Brian,

    Count me in. I will kick ass. I keep looking at Final Cut Pro (even have it) in every release, but keep going back to Avid. I might have a thing or two I can contribute. Contact ron.nosmopam@creativecow.net or kathlyn.nospameither@creativecow.net for more info on me and how to contact me.

    Brian,

    I’m assuming you’re looking for a Avid POV and that you have the FCP side covered. However, I represent an interesting POV since we used to be an all AVID shop until a year ago and then switched to all FCP X-SAN. We now have close to one hundred FCP systems all connected via X-SAN sharing projects and media. You can see our story on the apple website: https://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/finalcutpro/customerstory.html

    If you’re interested in my POV, contact me off-list.

    Hello Dennis and Mark,

    Kathlyn and I have been working towards the launch of a new Creative Cow podcast and we’d like to invite you to be our guests on it. We have the M.C. and have been working through the details and we know we have the audience — the Cow now gets 6 to 8 million pageviews in a bad month and we go as high as 11 million in the big months.

    So, if you’d like to be one of the shows on the new Pro Media Cowcast, please let us know.

    Best regards,

    Ron & Kathlyn Lindeboom
