I would recommend checking out Ripple Training. Their Resolve training is top notch, and made by the guy who literally wrote the manual. Weekends coming up, so you might be able to knock it out.

No they aren’t, it’s Cloud or nothing from now on.

I think colleges are going to make the biggest difference in the long run. As their graduates mix into the field, they can squash a lot of the misinformation out there about X.

I love the rigging and publishing aspects and use it all the time. My buddies will call me and ask if I know of a plugin to do XYZ, and if I don’t know of a free one I’ll just make one in motion and email it to them.

I would say for Doc and News work there isn’t anything better at the moment than FCPX. The keywording and skimming are incredibly powerful for ripping through hours of footage in little to no time, and with Motion’s integrated lower thirds, the editor has fast access to customizable mograph.
I also think the commercial workflow is really nice in FCPX, using Auditions to test multiple versions of the same cuts.
My favorite things I’ve cut in X haven’t fallen into either of those categories though, they’ve been narrative shorts. I’ve cut two so far in X and both went very smoothly. They went to Pro Tools for audio sweetening and Resolve for color without any issues. What I’m trying to get at, is that at the moment, X seems to be pretty versatile. I’d say it’s ready to do the heavy lifting, just not many are really using it for that yet.

Here in Dallas it’s still a crapshot between FCP7, Premiere, and FCPX. Avid’s gained some popularity here, but what’s really surprising is how big FCPX has become. The Dallas Observer, The Dallas Morning News, and our ABC affiliate WFAA have all jumped in head first with FCPX. I’ve seen a really surprising number of web and broadcast jobs the last six months for FCPX. Our local FCPUG has 80%+ switched to X.

I tend to do it at the end of the day. When I’m taking a 6 hour or longer break I just move them onto my backup RAID. Because they are bundled I just have 1-2 to move and overwrite the previous days version. Of course, I also don’t use Time Machine or any other automated backup. Always just preferred to do it myself I guess.

Honestly, I’d recommend doing some actual training in FCPX before diving in. RippleTraining.com, MacProVideo.com, and Lynda.com all have great training. It’s very different from 7, but once you learn it properly, it’s both faster and more powerful than 7.
