arguably, man it doesn’t even work for pc. lol

I love the rough primative look. Saw it last night and you’re right… it looks like it was a fun project.
Funny how stop motion is coming back in style.
every 20-30 years indeed. -
are you saying they didn’t save the project? Surely they did. I’m thinking you can skip the EDL fun and just batch in another FCP suite.

interplay lets ya search by keyword.

I’d not lean on it for client copies. Something like Encore is much more stable and dependable. AvidDVDit is hit or miss. Not only is it unstable, you never know what you’re gonna get output-wise. Sometimes it’ll spit out a DVD that won’t play on any DVD player and not so much as offer an error warning. Other times it will hick up on the same media it’s always used then work with a restart.
I take the time to wrestle with it for my own projects but I’d not spit out discs for clients with it. -
Create your circle in photoshop, import it then track it to V1.

nicely done, sir.
To this day, I still grab good ole Elastic Reality for cool custom transition elements.
It’s dawning on me that I started on After Effects when it was made by CoSa. lol
flashback. That’s when rendering waited for friday evening. Remember strata studio pro?
or the first version of Lightwave that came with the toaster? -
[Paul O’Brien] “Grinner – cool you can give a quote so quick. In such a pricing, does that include all music/narration/production costs? If it does, I see those elements eating into margins/profit really quickly – do you just go in with those factored in, how do you keep those costs down?”
Yes, partial quotes do a client no good. They’ll on ly make em made later when you change it or start babbling about fine print or expenses. I use dewolfe music most of the time and can pay a blanket fee for an entire production. I have not counted needle drops in years thanks to them and eager local bands looking for promotion. My VO dudes are top notch and because we such a great relationship, I can literally email a script and tag the email with how much money I have of it. They turn it around that same day and invoice me for that amount. Veeery simple.
In the case of this show, there will be no VO expenses and all of the music will be free from local bands. This was discussed and agreed upon before I gave the verbal quote in the same meeting.
This has been a great asset… being able to quote before another company gets the jump. They even commented on how easy it was and how much they are looking forward to it after wrestling with other companies that felt a need to make it difficult. I literally just look at things as a grand a day. -
That article made it seem like it was a hassle or some sort of image downgrade to downconvert.
Again, in my worlkflow, it’s just a menu setting in the camera. I don’t even have to add a render. I shoot in HD so that I have it later, should a show sell and HD is required and I like the added quality in the meantime.
