Come on! Debate away… Where do I go from here?

I love the rigging and publishing aspects and use it all the time. My buddies will call me and ask if I know of a plugin to do XYZ, and if I don’t know of a free one I’ll just make one in motion and email it to them.

I think colleges are going to make the biggest difference in the long run. As their graduates mix into the field, they can squash a lot of the misinformation out there about X.

Can I ask what sort of editing your house specializes in? Curious to see who uses what.

[Ronny Courtens] “If you are a creative editor you will simply enjoy working with this app.”

that’s.. kind of open to debate Ronny.

The one I work for is pretty much completely Adobe, because they got a deal years ago which included the whole Master Collection. It means that all kinds of courses can be covered using the same software set. I don’t know how CC will affect them, but I think they might be ok, given that I’ve just been given the whole lot for free on some related deal.

For students, learning one NLE is much like learning another if they are starting from scratch. For the university, they need to keep their costs down, so PCs and Adobe it is – for now.

I still don’t get why everyone is so scared of CC – aren’t adobe offering an ‘or buy the suite’ option too? ~Isn’t CC just supposed to be for convenient safeguarding?

Call me naive – but that’s what I’m hearing

[Nicholas Zimmerman]

No they aren’t, it’s Cloud or nothing from now on.

I guess I got confused when I read price comparisons.
I don’t buy nesspresso because I hate having to ‘subscribe’ to the coffee capsules- will be interesting to see how everyone reacts.

[Craig Seeman]

I’m not sure where the “hearing” is being done but it’s nothing coming from Adobe.
Subscribe for ever or lose your programs.

Some are buying CS6 and hanging on to it for life (or is it dear life).

[Bernard Newnham] ” PCs and Adobe it is – for now.”

That’s not what I see posted by people in the Educational market if it’s CC. Apparently it’s a major cost compared to CS. PCs I can believe but I suspect many are waiting to make an “elsewhere” decision unless Adobe rethinks their educational pricing for educational institutions.
