Wow you guys,
this is a great thread.
As well as being interesting and lucid it’s an eye-popping education in
delivery processes.It is also Creative Cow at it’s best and greatly appreciated.

I would only chime in with;
which ever side of that blade you are on
aren’t you sick of being the beta testers
for all these “quick” updates that “have numerous bug fixes”?Come on Apple…
it’s getting seriously old.David

Hey David,
Not to hi-jack the posts, but I’ve worked on theatrical release
features that shot a million, two-hundred thousand feet for
a two hour film…the assistant editor’s on that one had their
hands full.Back to the thread; you are smart to ask at the beginning of your
project how to best organize it. Shane’s DVD which I own, is a great
start.Another thing I have started doing is a basic split between all
recorded media, which I keep on a second (media only), drive,
and the rest of the Project material, which I keep in a Project Folder
on my boot drive…that one contains everything else in the project: graphics, sound files other then the sync sound etc. I
think I first saw this basic method from a Larry Jordan lecture and
so far it seems to be a pretty good way to start a project.Good luck it gets interesting…

Shane,
Agreed, it would make an interesting tutorial.
I, for one, would love to learn about it.I have your DVD on getting organized in FCP.
It has really helped on a documentary I’m shooting
and editing…Happy New Year,
David

Bogie,
I see you haven’t lost your sense of reality,
I can remember reading similar postsof yours in the old
Media 100 days in the early 90’s.Shane’s DVD is a real help if you are the least bit
organizationally challenged (me).
I changed (some of), my ways after looking at his DVD and I
am better for it.But DO get somewhere where you can play with FCP
and get a feel for it’s set-up. It never pays to jump into
anything on other people’s say-so. Especially with editing…All the best,
Good thread.David
