    Next you’ll be telling me you drink decaffeinated coffee with skim milk!

    There are two types of people in this world. People who drink Coca Cola, and weirdly people who prefer Pepsi. People who drink Coca Cola use Macs and people who drink Pepsi generally use PCs. I myself prefer the real thing and therefore drink Coca Cola while driving my Mac. As for the cost issue! My first mac was an LC 11, Ive upgraded my Mac every 2 yrs to the latest and greatest maxed out version, but Ive never actually owned a computer. I rent my computers from Mac finance, the premiums are totally tax deductible, (not tax deductible on a percentage of depreciation if I owned them) so in actual fact I don’t pay for them either. At the end of the two year cycle, I send the old computer back and they send me a new one.

    [Craig Seeman] “Otherwise the contrary may be true in that people are still looking for “Avid editors” or “Final Cut (not X) editors” and not simply “talented, skilled editors.” It is sad if this is still the case and it may be.

    Craig, Im talking about other editors and post houses. The producers I work with are happy to use what ever I choose.

    [craig slattery] “frankly Im sick of having to explain why I want to use it.”

    Michael, I mean sick of explaining my reasons to post houses not to you guys on the cow.

    [Michael Sanders] “Craig – which VT’s?”

    Michael, both the Jubilee VT and The Olympic VT. I cut them in FCP 7 because it was a last minute job over at television centre just before christmas. They weren’t set up for FCPX and it was a new client. I should have been more assertive and pushed for FCPX because in my opinion it eats this type of edit up. 2013 I wont be so demure, FCPX should be an option on every job,and frankly Im sick of having to explain why I want to use it.

    Brilliant, fantastic location! You are very lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world. Would like to see more films like this from other Creative Cows. Have a great 2013. Thanks Jim

    [Gary Huff] “Over what?”

    He had a very public divorce with FCP and jumped ship early. Now he finds himself chained to Premier, just when FCPX and the future of editing got very exciting.
