[Charlie Austin] “Try using the timeline index. It’s a much better way of selecting multiple clips, and will preclude you from accidentally moving the group. :-)”
That works quite nicely. Thanks!

My FCPX ioXT system is off by one frame. Strangely, the SDI monitor plays back one frame ahead of the viewer window. When playback stops, the monitor jumps back a frame to match the viewer. Really annoying; particularly with 24p video that has a lot of motion.

I talked to a friend who works at this company and the word is that they shoot film for color accuracy.

[walter biscardi] “For example, you can’t shoot with digital cameras in an Aluminum factory. Has to be film.”
I had no idea. Why is that?

[Matt Townley] “The other thing that hasn’t been mentioned is a good external monitor.”
I agree. You will never find me without my SmallHD monitor on a shoot. Absolutely essential!

[Todd Terry] “There are definite upsides and downsides to YouTube. On the downside, I just think it looks so tacky and “consumerish” to put a production company’s professional videos on YouTube as a presentation outlet. You can’t control the poster frames.”
Todd: Youtube now allows upload of a custom thumbnail.
[Todd Terry] “And you have no control over the other garbage that pops up when your video is finished.”
When embedding, you have the option of not showing “related videos”.
[Todd Terry] “I’ve never found Vimeo to work nearly as well as YouTube. Videos seem to require two or three clicks to get started, there is much MUCH more buffering than on YouTube, and I find videos often clog up and the only way to continue them is to refresh the whole page. This has been my Vimeo experience on numerous different computers, browsers, and ISPs.”
I experienced a lot of the same things, but it seems that Vimeo has improved quite a bit over the last couple of years.
Also, I have used this cool place called Creativecow.net to host private videos.

[Chris Evans] “The reason that those 2d videos are popular is because they can be made by one guy sitting in a room by himself with a computer and after effects. It doesn’t take a lot of effort by a lot of people, just one.”
Yeah, it only requires a superhuman effort by one under-appreciated, under-paid person.

I’ll definitely be grabbing this whenever I get around to upgrading to Mavericks & 10.1.

[Craig Seeman] “I don’t think you can count keystrokes or even “clock” compare specific functions in many cases.”
I found that picking out selects in Premiere requires a substantially greater number of keystrokes than it does in FCPX. When you know you don’t have to be working that hard, it gets old really quick.

[Bill Davis] “you’ll open your old NLE and literally be AGHAST at how slow, constraining and old-fashioned it feels.”
I tried to edit something in Premiere CC a while back and I could hardly stand it. It felt like work!
