  Hi,

  I wonder how much is an equipment for estabish a post-production company?

  Where I could find a list of equipment (software and hardware) for calculating the investment?

  Thanks a lot for your helpfulness.

  Search the Final Cut Pro Forum. There are many posts on this subject. Also, if you are not expert when it comes to post workflows and gear to facilitate them, look for a consultant or re-seller to keep you on the right track.

  Thanks a lot John!

  I am going to check in that forum. For the moment I completed a personal list:

  Hardware
  Mac Pro
  AJA Kona

  Software
  3DS Max
  Final Cut Pro
  Logic Pro
  Houdini 10

  However, I will discuss there what I need for having a right workstation.

  Thank you again!

  Don’t forget you’ll need a broadcast monitor, a fast RAID and sound system (mixer & speakers). Also, tape machines for I/O if various producers will be using your facility.
