Action Movie Essential Programs
I was wondering which programs are compatible with mac, I know theres that list on videocopilot, but all those are really expensive. I was wondering which mac programs (leopard) are compatible, hopefully free, although I doubt it.
I tried After effects but the frame rate kept freaking about, so I just didnt do that.
any help? -

The only “GOOD/FREE” program I’ve EVER seen that’s even worth playing with on any level is Blender3d (which is available on all platforms).
Other than that, you’ll most likely have to pay for video software. I’m no mac guru though, there might be some sites out there offering such things, try google..
As for AE – the only framerate issues I’ve had is when I’ve changed the rate of the footage and interpreted as something else, which in that case was entirely my own fault because I didn’t know wtf I was doing at the time…
Give AE another try.. maybe hit up some tutorials Mr. Kramer on VCP does have a wonderful set of tutorials on there, and this site also has several very informative ones as well.. might just need to sit down with it and show it who’s boss 😉
Good luck, I hope this has helped a little.

AE is not an editing program, it doesn’t allow you to playback in real-time until it has rendered the frames that you want to playback. Even if it’s just video, AE needs to render it first. Use RAM Preview to render and cache frames in RAM (limited by the amount of RAM you have) and then play them back in real time. The keyboard shortcut to RAM Preview is the 0 on the numpad.

err…
I dont really know what that means
can you explain slower or something please. -
Action movie essentials is a great product from videocopilot.net
It is not a program but a collection of pre-matted/keyed clips to use in your own projects (usually with After Effects)
The cost of Action Movie Essentials is not expensive esp. considering the quality of the footage they supply.
I think perhaps the original poster is at crossed purposes.

What exactly is the poster asking?
And how would typing more slowly make the responses more comprehensible?Joey Foreman
