    I have no problem with enthusiastic youth (or old age).

    But goddam I’m getting tired of people propagandising tech. I own Avid MC on a clapped out PC, FCPL on an old mac and a 2perf 35mm that sounds like a lawnmower but reams the Alexa in every available port. Mates have DSLRs of all flavours. And I’m happy! I pay my bills cutting mostly on Avid, occasionally (less and less) on FCPL. I can walk into any shop of any size and deliver the best possible film for the material given IMnotHO. Did it today for Comedy Central (on FCPL).

    If FCPX is an assistants/corporate bureaucracy’s wet dream then great. I dont give a shit about keywords. I need to KNOW the material in any case. If the job is big enough someone else can organise it. If not it’s moot. I just need some rolls, bins and a solid cutter that can share storage and connect to a big decent colour screen.

    If kids (and old men) want to go ON AND ON with the hard sell about how the latest shiny toy will make your film better then I hope they’re enjoying themselves as much as it seems.

    Key it. Just think of it as a crappy bluescreen and proceed accordingly.. There’s plenty of youtube stuff about cleaning up after a bad key.

    Anyone who buys a $5000+ computer based on an exciting visual promo of what it would look like if it was on their desk & not plugged in has waaaaay too much of Daddy’s money.

  • [Marcus Moore] “I’m looking for the release performance benchmarks and pricing info you mention but I can’t seem to find it…

    Speculation, natch.

    [Marcus Moore] “There will be some crossover costs for sure, but existing PCIe cards/drives can be ported over to an external chassis if you want. And though I’m sure any 4K display Apple would put out will be lovely (and expensive) who says you have to get new monitors?”

    Yes I guess for a couple of hundred buck convertors & the loss of 2 thunderbolt ports I could carry on as I am..

    [Marcus Moore] “We have no solid info that the FirePros can’t be exchanged for newer GPUs later-“

    Now this one I’m prepared to bet on.. I think you’ll be more likely to upgrade your iphone.
