[Scott Sheriff] “I disagree”
You are correct. Since the Reagan Administration, total jobs has increased, aggregate real wages have decreased (in USA), yet household income has remained the same.
Answering this has proven to be complicated.
Two main answers:
1. Working women
2. the PC.(1) we know that women are discriminated against on wages, so as more of them have been hired they have been low-balled; moreover, two working family members means household income stayed stagnant.
(2) simple as this: we can do more work, manage more tasks and workers with the PC than ever before. Efficiency is very high.
Are we going to strike?

[Tim Wilson] “They were delighted with the results. I should have charged more.”
Talk about that some more please.
If you search this forum, you’ll find posts of mine where I struggled with a client, with whom I’ve made contact again for more work.
Does that mean I could charge more this time?
Thanks!

Don’t forget letter “P.” It places X into position mode. Then you can drag a clip off to the right and the empty space fills in with a gap clip.

[Tim Wilson] ” scale that The Legend of FCP never was”
That means, we’re just waiting for the movie — the one edited in X — that generates the halo effect. We should all really be downloading Final Draft and reading Syd Field.

[Shane Ross] “L.A. is a big ship, and it takes a long time (years…many years), for it to turn around”
Yeah, but cash is still king. In a race-to-the-bottom scenario and the mythos of “digital revolution,” one would expect Apple or Adobe to beat Avid, simply because they have more dough than Avid. And by beat Avid I mean put them out of business, in a decade. I say a decade because capital budgets are based (usually) based on 5 year depreciation schedules. So that’s 2 capital investment cycles.
For Avid, the question is what are they gonna do now? How can they compete against Apple basically giving away FCPX and with Adobe’s Creative Cloud monthly rental-cost structure? Does it really come down to hardware? <–These are actual questions by the way.
