    yes. While it’s really close to the same (and the animation codec is indeed generic) you will not have “fast import” with the animation codec. This could be a factor if importing bigass files with a fussy fella behind ya.

    my thoughts are you will save an enormous amount of time and frustration by just opening after effects. Anything you use in marquee that makes it worth using (motion blur, extrusion, whatever), makes it useless because the render times are too long.
    In your case, I think your rendering at a low rez but again, AE is yer buddy.

    meridien uncompressed is always a weener.
    It’s lossless and seems to be generic from avid to avid.

    The Meridien systems are rock solid. Still the most stable NLE that use to be on the market.
    You can get em cheap now and, imo, you otta.
    Buying the new soiftware-based avids makes you a paying beta tester for them. It also slows you waaaay down compaired to the meridien systems because of how ram is utilized and accessed. They are cheap now because those who shelved em for adrenaline have mostly shelved adrenaline and are now trying to play some ctach up with NLEs that don’t offend so much.
    Simply put. I miss my old meridien-based Avids. I wish Avid would have upgraded these instead of, well, giving up like they did.

    shakeycam for the sake of shaling is irritating. NYPD Blue screwed up every old DP I know. They all try to mimmick it and instead of emphasising dialog, they just wobble needlesly, not even listening to what they are shootin’. I shoot hand held more than anything. My wobbles are from a wobbly hand, never boredom.
    Styles rotate, regurgitate and every 25 years, evolve about a year. I have always seen styles as somthing not to follow. If standing out is the point, blending in is counter-productive.
