    Force yourself to do one training series (Ripple are good) on the basic interface/workflow. It’s different in so many ways large & small that you’ll save yourself much head-thumping. The longer you’ve been an editor the more pertinent this advice becomes!

    Interesting, seeing more of the floor projection technique. My takeaway from this one was that using it as a pseudo screen wasn’t nearly as visually impactful as altering the “reality” of the floor. Madonna’s 2013 Superbowl halftime show used this gag to stunning effect.

    The 5.1 is for fun… haven’t had a call yet to work in 5.1, so consumer unit would be OK in that regard.

    Ditto. 6/32/700. Arrives Friday. Can’t wait to pour rum, triple sec & lime in the top. Fire up Compressor, blend me some joy….

    February 15, 2014 at 1:37 pm in reply to: Is FCP X part of your five year business plan?

    My five-year plan has the peasants back on the steppes harvesting, and increased steel production for milk bottles (aka, tanks). World Dominance by Year 7 is a forgone conclusion.

    Seriously, with the way technology moves these days, if I can’t get a ROI inside of 3 years on anything but lenses, it’s a poor purchase. If someone releases the BSSB (BestSinceSlicedBread) NLE on OSX, I’ll drop X and switch. I do wish to stay on OSX for various reasons, but my NLE choice is what works for me, now. And after finding it wasn’t an issue to re-learn the mechanics of driving an NLE (Legacy -> X), I’m not concerned if I need to re-learn again in the future.

    We’ve had discussions here how we can’t “trust” any software vendor. Inevitably they’ll do what’s best for them, not each of us individually.

    As for my business planning, it has little or nothing to do with either software or hardware. It has to do with content and partnerships.

    Well, yeah. But his friend insists on spitting into the wind, tugging on Superman’s cape, etc.
