30th Anniversary of Mac film shot entirely on iPhones

But was it edited on FCPX?

There’s nothing we can’t argue about on the FCPX COW Forum

I would have thought it would have said it was edited with FCPX – Looks great for iPhone footage.
Well if not FCPX surely iMovie.
But maybe Premiere?

you’d think they would have said. its not visible on any of the screens in the behind the scenes video either.
70 hours of rushes, 15 editors working simultaneously – you’d have to think that’s a job for Avid eh?

Uh, I think it said 15 international crews – all feeding footage via satellite to an editor in the US – all on the same day.
Can’t see any reason why there would be 15 editors for that.
And clearly, given the footage arriving locally, there’s nothing in that edit that couldn’t be done on iMovie, X or any other NLE including, presumably, Windows Movie Maker.
I submitted I think 3 video stories from NAB last year that were all shot on my iPhone. And that was an iPhone 4. Given good shooting technique and conditions, iPhones are perfectly capable of capturing damn decent footage.

Just don’t pan that iPhone too fast, unless you love jello.
– No Parking Production –
Adobe CC, 3 x MacPro, 3 x MbP, Ethernet File Server w. Areca ThunderRaid 8…. and FCPX on trial

IPhones shoot variable frame rate, which can lead to some issues with NLEs.

Last I heard Angus was still using FCP 7… Testing Premiere and FCP X, but working on 7. But this was about a year ago…

You have to hold your finger on it to activate AE/AF lock to avoid that fun stuff.

Yes- It was 15 cinematographers actually, and 21 editors.
