    What I’d love is for roles to be automatically assigned from the media browser and take advantage of iTunes metadata. Right now it brings in all iTunes as music, which is annoying when we have our sfx libraries in there as well.

    Remember when our biggest gripes were ‘no broadcast monitor support?’ Life could be worse :).

    [John Davidson] “One time I asked Don to read so gritty he would ‘make babies cry’. It came out awesome.

    The guy who could really do that was Chuck Riley. I worked with him a bunch, too. Of the main VOG’s he had by far the deepest voice. Very nice guy.

    actually wait a minute – has anyone seen this?

    some of the parent child operation stuff for audio here – out of the inspector is pure mad. I really didn’t fully get that half of this could go on.

    this is genuinely impressive. (yes fine I should use the software properly). but from 3 minutes, to around 7-8 minutes alone are well worth watching.

    It’s a little bit of an eye opener.

    No, hey–I agree. I’m still here and the water is definitely getting warmer. I ain’t there yet, but I’m definitely convinced that there is a time I could be. It’s just been a better bet for me to re-up Avid and learn Premiere in the short term. I’d be happy to have a good working excuse to learn X.

    Boy, and he sure got pissed if you asked for one that he didn’t think was needed.

    It is much easier to understand with pictures than it is to read my babble.

    [John Davidson] “Here’s a funny little thing. We totally don’t care about roles anymore since X2Pro pretty much automates everything for us. I suppose if we really cared and had a huge edit we would feel more motivated to work with roles. Then again, even a sizzle that we worked on for 2 months and delivered last week – never touched a role in it.”

    There’s no need to touch roles once their assigned, there is a need to be able to organize them in a timeline. I mean, it may not bother you when you make a cut in a music track at the bottom of your sequence and the tail you cut off jumps all the way to the top of the screen. Or worse, cutting 2 or 3 frame bits of dialog or FX together. You may not care about that, but those that do may think Roles really need to be able to stick together, at least loosely. 🙂

    You should watch all of Sam’s tutorials. He has an article now also on MovieMaker about RED and FCPX (which is a bit of rehash of what he told in the Tutorials, but very interesting!).

    I really like his tutorials, they are short, but very packed with good information for what often seems more high-end workflows than what the tutorials of Ripple Training or Larry Jordan tell you (with all respect to both those, I bought those as well).

    Again, Apple is making huge advancements with FCPX, and anyone who still regards it as the 10.0.0 version, should really look again…
    This stuff was introduced in October or November. We are March now 😉
