[sandy shapiro] “…not. Hello Avid. Hello professional software.”
We call this spam. -
I’ve been reading the posts and you guys just don’t get it.
“Listen to your users…and you’ll see the folks in broadcast and film back on board”
This is the LAST thing Apple should do. Think of Henry Ford, The users wanted a faster Horse. Its perfectly clear what Apple is doing with FCPX; they are targeting the next generation of editors, not the current generation. In a few years, FCPX will be fully matured and the defacto standard that Adobe and AVID will try to copy, yet, as usual, they will be well behind. This is the way Apple has always worked since the beginning. This current generation of editors will be the fuddy-duddys that talk about the good-ole days of editing. With the recent update of FCPX, the multicam approach blows everything else out of the water. It’s exciting. Don’t worry about FCPX, its for the new kids…..and trust me, they will do more amazing things than we ever did in a quarter the time. Reality hurts.

Really, OMG, LOL, have u talked with one recently?

LOL, Hey, I’m right there with you, it may seem laughable, I have tremendous respect for people on this forum; however, I’ve witnessed Apple do this too many times. FCPX is attempting to make the process of editing more story-based than technical. Of course, this gives it the feel of iMovie Pro as some people say, but good grief, please play with the new multicam editor and you will see what I mean in terms of Apple’s progress. I know there is quite a bit lacking compared to FCP 7 and P CS5 currently; but really? Can you not see what Apple is doing here?

Sure I can Frank, I’ve produced about 10 spots with it and I’m working an a second film with it now.
I just don’t think experience makes people Fuddy Duddies, and I don’t think a new program is going to make young editors better than me/us.

Yes and they’re great at taking entire phrases and reducing them to a few letters to expedite communication. One FCPX equivalent feature might be the Skimmer.

It might make them faster though. It’s not the only thing important though but it is key when time is money.
