Although I should probably try to be more conciliatory, right?

May 21, 2012 at 6:34 pmKidding aside, this is the most-read forum at the COW.
For you guys that have been here non-stop for 13 months (or 13 years), a lot of FCPX stuff may seem settled….although apparently not. But there are still people stopping in to this forum for the first time every day — there are still nearly a million copies of that thing being downloaded every month, and guess what? It’s causing debate!
As you’ve noticed, though, the majority of the traffic isn’t necessarily about FCPX anymore. It’s a place to talk about everything related to everything, which we haven’t had on the COW in a while. Occasional needless friction notwithstanding, the forum is doing some pretty remarkable things.
Until we can figure out something better, my strong recommendation is to stay off threads that look like ground you’ve covered before. Why put yourself in the position of saying BUT WE’VE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THIS to a bunch of people that may NEVER have talked about it?
…but the hottest threads right now are actually pretty fresh.
Anyone here cut a feature on FCPX? This one also turned into a great conversation about media management, workflow, and the best approaches to feature editing in general
Editing Scenario started as a query about corporate video approaches using X that covered feature requests, some great examples of X’s strengths, and more
CS is released – so what now? Awesome thread that led to discussions on even more threads about Speedgrade, FCP vs Premiere, approaches to and quality of transitions in the two, and a thread suggesting that PPro CS6 as FCP 8 is, let’s say, optimistic.
Think about it. Let’s say we name this forum The Industry. Why would you go there? Wouldn’t we still need an FCPX Debate forum? Emphatically, yes. And would any of you stop going to that forum? LOL I doubt it.
In the meantime, having this forum, with this name, is leading to some of the coolest threads I’ve seen in a long time.
I think Beatles song titles could be pretty fruitful though.
Why Don’t We Do It In The Road?
Happiness Is A Warm Gun
Tomorrow Never Knows
Run For Your Life
Helter Skelter
For No One
Help!I’m also thinking of the Jimi Hendrix song “Love or Confusion.”
