Is anyone using FCPX for movie trailers yet?

[tony west] “Love that wide tree shot.”

+1 on the tree shot; I originally thought it was in a studio. Very nicely composed and shot. Good luck with your film.

[Aindreas Gallagher] “I’ve ran a rant on bloody mindedly learning Avid, and roped a bona fide avid long form poor sod in to tutor whatnot, and avid themselves are throwing training material like confetti with the promax stuff..
but – i swear – being a pleb who started editing via FCP from a design background, avid is just wrecking my head – I’m flagrantly editor-lite at the best of times relative to some of the hard core practitioners – but in terms of editing reactively relative to messy broader workflow; chaps throwing AE bits to you/you messing in AE and roundtripping type concerns – avid just feels nitrogen heavy – all you’re breathing in is extremely specific editing exclusive workflow conception and methodology – although i get that it rules in scripted drama as a cutting tool. After watching examples why. their trim tool is awesome.

If you ever publish your memoirs, please let me know. The twist of phrase is an Aindreas trait that I’m learning and loving as I troll about on this forum. Always good for a smile; or at least a head scratch. Me being a longform guy, I’d say give Avid another go. I personally can’t imagine cutting on anything else.
