look at his comments on Vimeo – just used the chair (with the visibility pole where he could secure the phone up high) and his computer bag handle…… creative thinking

the phone is pretty small……
as far as security knew, he was lip-syncing to a wheel chair –
and he was already past the security check point….not much of a threat

He was on GMA this morning. Brilliant concept and execution

I hear you Charlie……like that “X is Bananas”……tasty…….frankly the only thing that really bugs me is lack of a mixer and audio tracks….I just don’t want another step of roles and exporting etc…..Keywords is great but so is organizing how you like things in bins or reels (mostly reels as I come from old school film beginnings)
a lot of the controls are too small for my aging eyes…the color square doesn’t seem to be much of an improvement over the color wheel….losing the Motion roundtrip was a step backwards…custom window layouts ..as far as i can tell..aren’t doable (may be wrong about that)
Seems sluggish sometimes on even the fastest machines (latest Retina powerbook)
Has great multi-cam — terrific for laying everything in and banging it out quickly
I come from an audio background – many decades in Radio and TV…..and like the tactile “mix while you go” feel of a mixer (even virtual on screen)… everything can’t be solved with a range select…much can finessed with a slow music fill in between breaths and soundbites that is just too fiddle-y with the current just use FCP X sound tools
Other than that – good editor

Tony – i was referring to earlier comment that it takes 90 to 120 days to get used to something new…..I don’t know, if its designed well it shouldn’t take any time at all. Imagine if it took 90 to 120 days to get used to the new Iphone……pretty sure it wouldn’t be a multi-billion dollar business.
the “give me FCP X or hit the road” crowd is so invested in other’s validating their choice they seem to need to make everyone else either wrong or luddites for not agreeing with them.
Me – whatever works for you…great….go for it.

Amazing how willing some folks are to twist themselves into a pretzel to complete a task available in virtually every other NLE without connecting, un-connecting, opening in time line clips. Hey. They’re Apple. They know what’s best. I’m sure I’ll feel better about this in 90 to 100 days!

only issue on Leopard going forward I’ve seen is any old project with LiveType has issues – mangled projects, mixed up fonts…..for the most part anything old with LiveType is fairly useless..have to recreate the graphics with something else….

select one of the clips – go to effects tab – re-position it correctly — then go back to timeline – select the clip and cmd c (copy)
then select the rest of the clips….right or option click and choose REMOVE attributes…..once you’ve done that….chose paste attributes…you will have option to paste filters and motion….chose whatever you need and they should all then match the first fixed clip

It was a simple statement. You can tell a story with simple tools This point seems to elude you.
