    lol
    My brother and I are exact opposites. He writes and reads his greeting recording. Sounds like a robot on a 9th grade stage.
    I call it just to laugh.
    and he calls mine to do the same.
    “not here dude, leave a message.”

    It can backfire. Nancy now knows my shenanigans well enough to leverage em to her favor. Next thing I know she’s sportin’ a new car in my name all like “dude we totally talked about this and you dug the idea.”
    doah!
    She sure looks awesome in that dress…
    and the car.

  • freakin awesome.
    I was up in the mountains of Oregon not long ago and snuck out on an early mornin’ solo walk to be at one with nature. I was in nothin’ but wilderness as I heard footsteps coming my way. Banbi herself appeard through some foliage about 40 feet away and she and I made eye contact. Now, I’m a texas kid (which means I was raised huntin’) so I expected her to dart away. She was equally intrigued with me as I was with her. I stoof fast and offered an almost comical “heeeeey”. She tilted her head like a dog about to get a treat, and slowly walked my way. I was in awe. Now, 5 feet in front of me, she gave a couple more “what the hell are you?” looks. I put my hand out as if I had something to offer. Dude, this wild doe sniffed then walked casually away, never fearing me whatsoever.
    Kind of reminds me of Kathlyn’s deer.

    Pour your Dr. Pepper into it and call the insurance co., Marty!

    wow.
    I always stayed in the edit suit during the company meetings. lol
    I guess I’m not a good listener afterall because after 10 minutes of detailed babble a week before a session, I hear “wednesday, 8am.”
    That’s all I need to know.

    We’ll see how better things get with em. I lost hope for high hopes at this point, as you can tell. I see most of the industry doing the same as more and more FCP suites (and jobs) pop up and less and Avid suites (and jobs) exist. Part of it is their lack of effort but most of this is due to their “creative” marketing. Adrenaline alone bagged em more than they know or admit and we’ve seen very little stride to recover. Based on the burn I’ve felt, it’d be very hard for me to ever buy another Avid product. I fully plan on upgrading to a $15k FCP suite as soon as my $45k Avid suite croaks.

    I’ll have to repectfully disagree. Everytime I freelance in other houses with current versions, there are fun little surprises and restrictions awaiting. It’s why I leave my system as stable as it can be under the circumstances. [Job ter Burg] “Let me rephrase, 3.0.5 and later were all exteremely stable. 3.5.4 caused some troubles.

    that’s kind of funny.

    Yeah, I just don’t find pretty stable to be stable enough for a daily workflow with in-house clients.
    I was spoiled back when an Avid was an Avid. Now that it’s a software trying to catch up to FCP, it kind of makes me want FCP. That’s what I’ll upgrade to when I do upgrade.

    Don’t do it out of the Avid. You’ll get much better results using Sorenson Squeeze and you’ll be able to keep editing as they encode. Just export reference files and import em into sorenson. The first frame you export will be the first frame encoded.

    I explain that dresses don’t make chicks look fat… fat does.
