    [Marcus Moore] “10.1 was certainly a bit of a restart, changing some very low level ideas around the file structure.”

    But this structure, while having unique differences, borrows parallel structure, naming, and ideas with pieces from just about every other media based program in osx.

    Aperture, iPhoto, iMovie, iTunes, etc, as well as the “Share” moniker that is tossed around from mail to safari to nearly all of osx (which came before fcpx).

    I do think the dynamiting of fcs3 is to make FCP look and feel more Apple like as a compliment to osx, as well as fit in to the Apple distribution system, and this is the path they chose to take, or maybe it’s the path devs had to take In the given timeline.

    I am hoping for feature updates in the NAB Supermeet Hostile Takeover Anniversary Edition v10.1.2 as well. I have a good feeling as major part of Apple hardware transition is now well underway.

    While I would love them to, I doubt we’ll see Apple back at the Supermeet. I don’t think the organizers would agree to those conditions again; and Apple isn’t seemingly willing to share the stage, so it’s an impasse.

    I’m feeling pretty good about the possibility of a feature update with NAB in a couple weeks. I’m going to guess either April 1st or 8th if the pattern of Tuesday releases still holds. I’d also love Phiip Hodgetts to get some updated numbers from them on adoption/sales for X. Something we haven’t had a data point on since NAB 2012.

    Oh no, I wouldn’t expect them either as they will be hiding in the gallows as Apple does at NAB. That still doesn’t take away that this next release will be coined the Hostile Take Over Anniversary Edition, at least by me.

    Organ meats.

    On the broader topics – Apple – and more specifically FCP-X is starting to show up with a pretty significant series of NAB touch points for 2014.

    There’s the FCPWorks Monday evening thing at which one of the Apple video guys will be featured..

    And on Tuesday at the Supermeet Ripple Training – (Steve Martin and Mark Spencer) have signed on as a formal Gold level sponsor -which gives them stage time right along with Adobe, Black Magic, et al.

    So while Apple continues their policy of not “formally” doing NAB – it’s not like there won’t be opportunities fort X devotees to make valuable connections and work the show.

    I was downloading my certification docs from the Apple website and stumbled across the Apple FCP-X branding bible.

    Formally, it’s FCP X

    (space between the P and the X)

    The document did NOT address whether FCP Legacy, FCP Legend or FCP Deceased is the proper current term for the previous program. ; )

    Lots of good stuff. Very disappointed to not be going this year. But a $1800 drive failure ate my NAB money.

    Is that what the kids are saying now-a-days?
