So Aindreas what’s it gonna cost you to just get PPro for the first year? I bet it’s the same as what you’ll pay for the whole suite. Are you seriously going to tell me you’re going to turn down every product Adobe has to offer for no additional cost? No you’re not.

Nobody NEEDED 2000 songs on a device in their pocket…

So here we are on an Apple product thread, in effect discussing something truly innovative. Innovative is what Apple’s been known for. I think the whole CC offering is truly innovative. It will give you something you didn’t even KNOW you needed.
Given their history, this is something Apple should have done with FCPX/Motion/Compressor/Pages/Numbers/Keynote/whatever.
No hyperbole here. Hey CC, have a seat next to the iPod.

I have the CS6 Master Collection and there’s a lot in there I never touch, but I just finished 6 hours of billable work in InDesign for a job that just fell in my lap this morning. Wasn’t counting on it, didn’t even have to bid it. So there’s my first year of CC bought and paid for. The price of the Master Collection upgrade paid for itself a long time ago. I expect every year to provide some kind of similar scenario. If I only had Production Premium I’d a had to pass on this gig. It may go in one had and out the other but what Adobe fills the hand that’s left with is pretty impressive.

Starting with CS6 apps? Well, there you go.

Select the clips and nest them. Double click on the new nested sequence either in your timeline or project bin and the nest will open up as its own sequence. Rename or futz with it however you want.

So my kids are 10 and 12 and they do most of their video consumption through streaming on a device (phone, tablet or computer) or on-demand through the TV. They don’t even ask us to record things for them anymore.
They are OS agnostic. We have MacBooks, an iPad, Android tablets, Android phones, Windows desktop, wii, PS3 and FiOS. These are all things they operate equally well and with no frustration if one doesn’t work right. They just move on to the next one to get to what they want. And good for them I say. They will never sit on a 3 hour call with Tech Support trying to get a printer to work.
They seem to know that most of the crap they watch on YT is crap given its production values (I’ll take all the credit here by all the amazingly, brilliant, stunning and flawlessly perfect editorial work of mine… that I FORCE them to watch :)). But the YT stuff is funny, and they don’t have any money anyway so who cares?
Now one of my best clients is a family owned chain of health food stores. 90% of what I do for them is for their website. But what drives the content is…a TV show. Dr. Oz. Man, if that guy talks about it you can be sure the stores will be full of people asking for it immediately after it. So we have his program schedule in advance and get stories/interviews/how-to’s ready in advance whenever we can.
And we also run spots on his show. I cut these in PPro. I export them directly to the station’s FTP with custom specs (picky bastards). So, how’s that? TV drives what we do on the web and our presence on the TV is more like posting on the web than ever before.
The kids are alright.

Use Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (Open CL). That’s all you need.
