I’m an old Media 100 guy who learned After Effects in the mid 90s. Today I primarily bounce between Final Cut Pro and After Effects and Photoshop.
I bought the latest version of FCS, not realizing it wouldn’t run on my G5. So I run it on my 13″ macbook, which is a real pain.
Editing is only one of many things I do to earn a living. I’m primarily a writer. But I’ve got a bunch of spots I’ll be editing over the next couple months and I’m trying to figure out if I can just move to a 17″ power book with an e-sata adapter.
