January 13, 2014 at 4:47 pm[Franz Bieberkopf] “[Walter Soyka] “I wonder if dual-naming would be viable: two forum links here that share content.”
This is, typical of your contributions, a genius idea. I hope Tim will seriously consider it.”
The Cow already has a function like this on some forums.
Head over here: https://forums.creativecow.net/canonmarkii
See those checkboxes at the top? Those check boxes aggregate any and all information that has those tagged words from all forums, not just the Canon MkII forum. If you hang around, you’ll see that sometimes people get confused saying, “hey, i didn’t post in this forum, yet I got a response from you in this forum. What happened?”
I have suggested to Tim, not too long ago, that Cow users should have more control as to what they see on every page when they sign in to the Cow. Right now, the Cow is pretty much divided up by forum. This makes a lot of sense for many reasons, but it also keeps things in conversation “buckets” (and advertising buckets). I think that all your preferences should be on every page you visit, not just a per user home page.
In order to throw topics in to a larger pool for more viewing, some sort of search/sort/aggregation/preference mechanism needs to be employed, but that means that I might not see the same things as you Franz, or you Walter.
I think there’s a lot of lurkers here, Franz. Keep posting cool topics, and perhaps you will get the virtual peers you are looking for to respond.
I do not think there’s a magic button to curate the content you’d like to see more of, otherwise it would have been completed already.

January 14, 2014 at 3:49 pmAnyone know of a desktop cinegram plugin for PPRO. FCPX or PPRO? I know the Flixel app is only available for iphone and ipad presently with a cinegram pro desktop releasing in the near future. Didn’t know if any 3rd party companies had a similar pluggin solution as of yet.

January 14, 2014 at 4:08 pmIt seems like you’d be able to do this easily within the editing program with still frames and transform tools if this is what you mean?

January 14, 2014 at 4:12 pmWell I know at CES (I wasn’t there) last week Panasonic showcased a collaborative work with Flixel. I don’t know if it’s just going to be an app in the camera or something that you can import footage into. It’s not released yet. But I guess that style is on the cusp of trending now. Americas Top Model, Macy’s etc are using the effect. I thought it might be cool to use the app and have access to its parameters rather than try to re-invent the wheel in AE so-to-speak.

January 14, 2014 at 4:24 pmFlixel seems t be something different.
Are you talking cinegram, or cinemagraph? There’s a difference.

January 14, 2014 at 4:30 pmI am unsure of any plugins that are in use directly for this. You can knock them out in Ae pretty quickly, and you can even do them in Photoshop.
If I were to try and create a cinemagraph in FCPX, I’d use SliceX and maybe TrackX if needed.

January 15, 2014 at 12:36 pmWell, this thread is still FCPX for sceptics and for the debate…
Now with the 10.1, I would say FCPX is slowly raising my eyebrows again.
If I can make peace with the timeline and the UI/Shortcuts, I might even reconsider using it for some work, or even all, IF really everything is back what was possible with fcp7. And I am still looking at YOU, Speed-Keyframes!!! 😀
