April 4, 2013 at 3:06 pmTina Fey was a representation of me laughing horribly at the sorry state of FCPX up in the Canadian newspaper wilderness, as PPro is embraced by the foremost editing directorial auteurs of our time – namely the Coens.
you just read the two lines, then click on the gif – and that’s me laughing there, a little manically.

April 4, 2013 at 3:10 pmagain people – that is a representation of my manic laughter at the sorry bedraggled state of FCPX in comparison to the one true PPro, soon to be put through its paces by two of the finest editors alive.
And then Meanwhile in a canadian newspaper….

April 4, 2013 at 3:15 pmIf you look at the past films done by the Hong Kong director, you’ll see that the films are quite a bit more ambitious that any Coens’ film. Not to take away from them, but the workflow is pretty intense on these Kung Fu films.

See my other post.
Oh, that Tsui Hark. I thought the reference was to a Canadian director. I think from the article they’re using it to piece together dailies at this stage….It’ll be interesting if they try do do the whole film in it.
As far as the Globe and Mail being Canada’s largest national circulation newspaper well being first out of two is definitely true. But giving it to their reporters that’s not exactly a ringing endorsement of its editorial prowess. And God forbid, they try to turn any more of their print journalists into on-camera personalities. That experiment has been just an exercise in advanced awkward.
Nothing to do with FCPX and its future but it’s still mostly a fanboy thing. I think Apple has the design in place to bring it up to par with Avid/Adobe but I’m not sure the management powers that be have the will. If they do it will still take another few years.

I’m familiar with his work which is heavily CGI laden. That’s why I think that it will be interesting to see how far they use it down the post chain. My guess is that the editor brought it in as his fave to assemble dailies…but that’s just a complete guess.

April 4, 2013 at 3:27 pmI always thought Crouching Tiger and those sort of films and the floating fighting stuff was just so bizarre and unbelievable. But then, I wonder what they think when they see Spider Man or the Matrix. 🙂

April 4, 2013 at 3:27 pmThat’s what I was referring to – it would be good to see the case study of Premiere Pro being used in this type of postproduction workflow and management of all the elements that come and go from the cutting room. I am sure it is capable of doing so – just want to get more insight into how.
Great trailer – have to track that film down. I am looking forward to Stephen Chow’s “Journey to the West” as I loved Kung Fu Hustle and Shaolin Soccer. Would love to work on a film with him as he blends in so many of the styles.

As FCPX’s features are playing catch up with Adobe’s. As Adobe has had a head start of a few years in the 64 bit ingest and play any media I don’t think it would be fair to compare head to head 🙂

“Maybe not, as some of us prefer the option of the stability and speed of use of a good quality intermediate codec. Ingesting native media is great and very useful a lot of the time but there is a price to pay for it.
