Brave new world. Again.

[Jeremy Garchow] “i am sitting here right now, at home, on a very small desk with headphones on, editing three spots that end up on the TV in the States and Europe.
Am I going to finish it here? No.
But I am editing, and it’s an older laptop.
I am having no issues creatively.
“Me three. And I dig it.

Doesn’t everything in this section get blown way out of proportion? That’s the fun of it, no? 😉

It went from A-Ha moment while drinking coffee in a situation that was obviously beyond Bob’s control, to you must edit in a pristine bordello with a cleaning service while trying to avoid getting your eyes plucked out to be a professional.
At least the stories are interesting if you can read between the lines.

Running metaphors! Got the marathon on your mind? Only three weeks. I was going to run it this year, but I’m not quite ready. I think I’ll do Santa Clarita in the Fall, though.

No, it didn’t go there. Or rather, if it went there, I missed it. HOWEVER, I would be ver interested in seeing it go there, so if you can steer it that way, I would be most appreciative.

[Bill Davis] “Another good example of trying to mentally solve problems based on theory – rather than reacting to problems that ACTUALLY show up in the practical world.”
So, fundamentally, you seem to agree with Michael’s idea of a proper (ideal?) editing environment. You wanted an acoustically dead room and you got it (even w/out some of the suggested materials). You were concerned about the color of the walls but the distance from you to the wall is such that it is a non-issue. It sounds like the size of the space helped you achieve your goals.
Out of curiosity if you did have sound reflection problems and the teal was impacting your color perception would you have added the sound proofing panels and changed the color of the walls?

You know what they say, Joe. Adventures suck while you are having them!

Well, the screens (2) were…. really big… don’t know size, but there were over 500 people in the room, and the projectors getting the ProRes 1080 signal were Christies. And the sound was… well, loud. As was the applause at the end.
So…. ummm…. I guess I failed?

[Bob Woodhead] “So…. ummm…. I guess I failed?”
Totally and completely. 100%.
Nice going, Bob, you ruined it.

Lol… thanks Jeremy.
Yes, I don’t know how people interpreted my post as saying it was BETTER. Of course it’s not better (or even as good)! Sheesh.
I said it was “as efficient” – that I felt I could not have completed completed the edit significantly faster sitting in my edit suite. Until now, my editing on a laptop always incurred some undesirable overhead in terms of productivity; render speed, edit speed, access to files, etc. I felt none of those limitations in the coffeeshop this time. And it wasn’t because of “lightweight” content – this was all ProRes 1080. Had I been in the suite, yes, I’d have had assets to ensure that the product was as perfect as possible, but if I had been in the suite, the product would not have been delivered!
