    [Aindreas Gallagher] “s FCPX training applicable to Avid, Premiere or other true track timelines”

    When I started learning editing there was not any “NLE” , only “tape to tape linear editing”. Then im my whole professional life I’ve cut in Avid, FCP, Premiere, DS Nitris and now in FCPX. So tell me how “tape to tape linear editing” is applicable any of those?

    [Aindreas Gallagher] “what exactly are they learning here?”

    They learning to tell their stories, and FCP X is very efficient tool on that!

    [Aindreas Gallagher] “s this FCPX training fit to be tested by a complex narrative dialogue problem “

    They have been cutting dialog scenes.

    [Aindreas Gallagher] “Given that no jobs are being posted for it?

    what is being provided here for the student? Outside of completely one off apple methodology that has no employer market traction?”

    When legacy FCP came out, how much employer market was there, and then what happened, you tell me? And how much is there for Premiere right now? And also, The student is provided not to be an expert on a particular software but to learn to edit and tell stories and as a school we decided to switch to FCP X and we are not the only film school doing that in the world. ( Oh maybe you should also warn them against that evil thing) 🙂
    I believe you already know the fact that everything changes in our industry, and being so conservative and resisting it ( like hating a particular software and a company) won’t do any good for us!

    [James Culbertson] “The hard part was learning to tell stories. Learning how to push buttons on an AVID later on was a minor learning chore in comparison.

    Why would FCPX to AVID be any different?

    Exactly! I don’t get that either. There is source footage, and there is timeline!

    I am beginning to see a few facilities looking for FCPX freelancers. Yes it is rare but as time marches on it will grow.
