the bottom line is we edit to buy groceries, not to brag.
good thing too. After 20 years of cuttin’ I have very little to brag about.

or fake it really well.
lol
Maybe it’s why I’m an editor. I found a long time ago when ya place yourself in a room full of producers and producer wannabes, you are never the dumbest one in the room. -
my rule of thumb is effects (and T&A) replace content.
If you have good content, no need to result to these things.
If ya have bad content, a dancin’ monkey is your only option. -
I have never tried such a thing. Maybe try deleting your database files and see what rebuilds?
sounds like you are batchin’ to me. -
assuming you are just talking about the BOB, you can run MC and Premiere on the same box. Ya just can’t use media from one app to the next, nativly anyway.
If you are talking about a DS, man don’t go loadin premiere on that. -
smack the AE in the back of the head and have him do it.
lol
at this point, you are best off throwing your omfo folder away and batching what is needed. It’s not always possible (seldom, actually) but is the fool proff way to get online just what needs to be.
Relinking has always been buggy. I found I was waisting more time and money wrestling with it than what I was saving in using it. -
Employed under the examples above are beginners and creatures of habbit. Both get paid scale or less. This leaves the cream of the crop to make new eye-catching stuff we have not seen before. Truth is, not all productions can afford this, esecially a series not slated for another season. The 3D into the engine was neat in Tokyo Drift.. which is why they copied it but all execs, admitting it or not, do know regurgitation of looks places them other than on the cutting edge and makes their project very mortal.
To me the worst/best example of this is your local news. Man they have cheezy 3D stuff happening in layers and if one wanted actual news, man thats no longer the place to get it. They pay nobody enough money so it’s a stair-stepping place for vidiots and filmmakers who wanna make cool stuff.
Then when they make it to the big time, they are told less is more. lol
The irony is they usually get paid about 7 bucks an hour to make bevelled, lit, animated hooha and then later get paid 3 figures an hour to place white text over a black box.In the end, a production has to have an art director with an art background and if they are wanting to make things work… hands on experience with the content they are making artsy fartsy. It is this lack of experience that creates cheeze.
I mean, it’s not as if a car enthusiast would want a shot of the enternals of a car when some cool action is happening… that is the doing of a middle aged white guy guessing what cool is.
Guessing is expensive. -
send a QT reference to Sorenson and make it there.
1000 bitrate is mooore than enough for the web but Avid doesn’t make an encoder, really.
If it helps, I use 480X360, usually about 500 kbs, and 28k audio. -
when offered a joke in life, I generally laugh.

You have to be a savvy fan first.
Then you just market to yourself. Hire appropriatly.
I see many a middle aged white guy in charge of making something hip and contemporary.
Always makes me laugh.
