yep. I’m wandering around a few PPro forums now.

That sound you hear there is the flapping of lots and lots and lots of wings – there is very probably about to be a mass migration.
Hogarth worldwide – I can now say – are on board with PPro, they’re on the adobe website formally endorsing anywhere after extensive, exhaustive, internal testing.

Hogarth are pretty huge and a major player in London, they feed and manage facility capacity into tons of firms – worldwide they are in the 500-1000 employees range.
They’re going premiere as of 7. They were FCP based.

I reckon its a done deal this overall to some extent. That thing actually might as well be FCP8 with warp drives attached.

So it will be interesting to see what happens next, certainly if there isn’t a big move towards Adobe I’d be surprised, they’ve certainly done more than enough to deserve a lot of success with it. They’ve certainly moved faster and further than Avid have.

Apple really should give us a roadmap for the next major update in FCPX as they did before if they really want to appeal to potential switchers.

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

HONEY BADGER FTW.

FOR.
THE.
WIN.

because the honey badger, honey badger don’t care, it just takes what it wants..

seriously – who came up with that? was it you Lawrence? I really feel there needs to be some kind of formal acknowledgement, possibly a t-shirt?

Aindreas, I double-dog dare you to change your COW avatar/profile pic to a Premiere purple-tinted honey badger.

i dont use FCP X or PPRO (yet) but this is still the only forum on the cow i go to..this is where the editors are and is the most interesting forum on the net imo. And i like thats you can talk about anything and its not off topic.

Yep, it was me 🙂 In the first impressions review Tim W. asked me to write.

I wish Adobe would have gone with that for the quote they used on their industry reviews page, but I’m fine with what they chose, lol!

Depending on the market you’re in, one can make the argument that it might be more valuable to expand your skillset so you can handle things like keying, tracking, grading etc on the picture side and sound design/sweetening on the audio side of post.

Being able to handle these things to a high level may make you more valuable than just being able to accomplish less albeit on multiple NLE’s.

I know opinions will vary on this, but for me the biggest thing that stands out is the fact that the master clips no longer get duplicated when you import an alternate version of the same project that you’re working on. I’ve collaborated with others on a couple feature-length projects that used Premiere, and this made the projects a lot more complex and messy than they needed to be, and made it a lot harder to get a good workflow going. It also meant that hard drive space was lost very unnecessarily, since each time a master clip got duplicated, the audio for the new clip had to be conformed.

Now it works the way it should, and we can just import a sequence and nothing else, and not worry about any of that- even while its being worked on by someone else!
