A bridge too far?

Then I sadly go to Premiere!

You can do “what ifs” all day long. I have work to do today. That’s whats’ important. I can’t worry about “what if”. That is a paralyzing thought process.

Why wouldn’t you just go all FCP Legacy style and stick with your perfectly well performing current NLE (FCP X)?

It’s stable, fast, highly capable right now. I’ve paid for it once and nobody’s bleeding me monthly to continue using it.

So It seems to me I’m good either way.

Which begs the question, “Why do any of us want upgrades ar all?” Apple is pretty poor in its update track record, judging by most of its apps, especially Logic. So maybe X is complete, save some ongoing cosmetic and organizational updates.

You’re forgetting the greatest Foley scene in film history:

Bonus: the intercom guy at the end is also Brooks.

Fantastic. This will be mandatory viewing in my Visual Storytelling class this fall.

[Oliver Peters] “We are now several months past Apple’s preview of the next FCP X.

Wait. There was a preview of the next version? Can you post a link to that?

Pure speculation, but assuming this is to be the case, will this be too much change (and not in features) in a few short years for FCP X users to stay in the fold?”

No.

Maybe not the best example. 🙂

Have you been under a rock? 🙂 There was an NDA preview screening at FCPeXchange at NAB. Open to anyone who was in line in time. No links available or possible to be posted.
