[Bret Williams] “While FCP X’s color board is no Color, it’s so far ahead of FCP 7’s color tools.”
OK Bret, you started it so let’s go.
Yes it is.[Bret Williams] “Seems like so much of what they’re doing is to save space. Except the timeline! I need the timeline on it’s on monitor. Not the event or viewer! “
Yes they really, really do. It’s the timeline that needs both the vertical space of a second monitor Please.
[Bret Williams] “Considering Color is eol’d, any point that you can’t roundtrip to color somewhat moot. But you can roundtrip in much better fashion to Resolve. And it’s free (for 1080p lite version). “
Yes. I hated round tripping in Color it was kludgy and…well, kludgy. Magic Bullet and the Color Board are also a great way to finish and it works within the program.
[Bret Williams] “That said, I’m liking audio mixing in X so much better than legacy.”
Yes. Because it’s more powerful because it’s Logic. The addition of an actual mixer combined with the current potential would make exporting to PT or DP unnecessary if you know how mix and sweeten audio.
It’s really tiring agreeing with you Bret.

[Craig Seeman] “You add emphasis to his point that cost of entry is very low. Talent and skill are the telling factors.”
Talent and skill are the telling factors… as long delays introduced by not using the best, or even the right, tool for the job don’t don’t bring you down first. I mean, can I use the a tack hammer to drive a large nail? Sure, it would work in a pinch but I sure as heck wouldn’t choose to frame a whole house with one (especially if I framed houses for a living and competed against other framers for jobs).
If you have all the time in the world then that’s one thing, but paying work tends to have deadlines which makes time a factor which makes using the right tool for the job a higher priority than if you are creating a labor of love on the side.

I agree with Shawn here. Don’t crap on someone else’s lively hood simply because you don’t like it. This is what i mean about this page. Its easy for you to lump in genre’s and groups of people and just say oh that’s garbage.
The people that work on all those reality shows that you say are garbage are people just like you. They work hard everyday just like you. Maybe thats their dream job, maybe they are taking the work that they can get but that in no way gives you the entitlement to say that what they do is easy or not. They have to deal with all the same nonsense that is the entertainment industry just like you. So if I watch something you do and its not something of my own personal taste does that give me the right to say you suck at your job.
It’s hard to shoot any show. It’s hard to produce any show. Its work to edit anything. And one would think that these types of forums with professionals would be uplifting and or encouraging. We can and should be better than this.

Think of the hurdles. How would I even get the file onto a 92 avid? No USB. Operating system is probably incompatible with current networks. SCSI? I’m thinking floppy disk.
I swear there was an issue in the past going from PC vs 8 to PPC Mac version 7.

[Bret Williams] “Think of the hurdles. How would I even get the file onto a 92 avid?”
I didn’t say there wasn’t any pain involved, only that’s not only possible to get an edit from a past system but actually the other way too, and I guessed that was relevant to the problem Mr. Wardlow was addressing. As to your question, even 20 years ago there was network access.

The year is young, there will be much to complain about, I still have my money on you.
