The pre-nab editor’s lounge panel on the state of editing.

I’m not sure we were at the same show.

I saw Premiere Pro almost exclusively. Avid around their own booth. I saw FCPX nowhere on the floor – and it is a million square feet so I invite anyone to correct me in that regard. Adobe has clearly taken the lead. I got a lot of useful information on the floor from the Adobe folk. But if you try to find answers on Adobe’s online resources then good f**king luck. Adobe’s online resources (which are the only place they are available) are completely and absolutely useless. Respond to that Dennis Radeke.

Ah, so Broadcast TV is where the ad budget went.
Photoshop via TV. Interesting.

FCP X pods were visible in pockets. I remember seeing it at Sony, Panasonic, AJA, Eizo and a number of other places.

I stand corrected.

Admittedly X was certainly not front and center in these booths. Although I got a sense that no NLE was as prominent in other booths as they had been in past years. In general, I did not feel like this show was especially focused on post. A lot of the new products throughout were infrastructure items, like converters for SDI-to-IP and IP routing. The reason IP is attractive as a change from SDI is file-based production and post, but also support for 4K and 8K production.

Pardon my stupidity, but what is IP routing?

Using ethernet to replace SDI for routing and signal distribution functions.

Amen to this! (And nice getting time to chat with you in my brief foray into the press room this year, Oliver!)
The Quantum presentations were among the most interesting to me – seeing how 4k and up to 8k requires orders of magnitude new infrastructure not only to store, but to manage and access content pools in large scale collaborative operations was fascinating.
The FCPWorks site will have the Quantum Alex Grossman video up in the next few days. It’s worth watching.

Good to chat with you, too.

It was a good show to see just how difficult 4K and 8K really is on a facility scale. I ran across the guys from Open Drives. They built the hot-rodded storage system used by Fincher’s team on “Gone Girl”. The system gets some amazing throughput.
I spoke with some of my LA facility friends who are actually posting 4K series. Seems that the Resolve systems are giving them problems with 4K content, whereas Baselight handles it in stride. Always good to separate marketing from reality.
