  • Except that it’s false 😉

  • This is the exact reason the rental model gets discussed so much. A two year project is $1200 is rental fees, when the project is done, will you need to go back and do something else with it?

    Please also note that a frequent contributor here, Tony, is cutting a doc using X, and his keyword tagging system is worth copying.

  • [Charlie Austin] “iMove and FCP X are already the same app.”

    One reason you need to evolve your language here has to do with the Creative Cow being a place where people seek advice. Based on what you’re saying, someone might assume incorrectly they do not need X to do certain things. Things that pros need to do. They are not the same app. I understand you’re hinting at development cycles and testing code and so on. That’s what I mean evolve the language. Something like iMovie is a testing ground for features in X (or something akin to that).

  • [Aindreas Gallagher] “iOS shared cloud based music app on OSX that reveals the same media as on your iphone. “

    It already does this for stuff purchased through the store, but it can be done also using home share and apple tv.

  • [Charlie Austin] “It is the exact same code base. “

    Isn’t that a bit of wonky taxonomy though? I mean, we are all made up of the same amino acids. The structure of a thing (including code) is more important than it’s parts arranged in mere proximate order. Easier said: the things you can do in one app and the things you can do in another app are different make them not-the-same.

  • [Charlie Austin] “Final Cut Pro and iMovie. Same app, different skin.”

    After I read that sentence, I opened up iMovie 10.0.2 and it could not import the MXF I just received nor the AVCHD camera archive.

    What do you mean by “same app.”

    Hmm. Maybe we are not using the correct terms, here.

    We have a Source window, a Program window, and a Timeline.

    I’m don’t know what “Play side” refers to.

    In PP the in/out needs to be set first in the timeline, and then you’ll get many options.

    [Emily Zhai] “Does title really matter? “

    I have a different opinion and reasoning. Yes a title matters because it tells future employers and clients what you can do. A title says: some folks trusted me with their business and clients to do this thing. The moment you stop doing that thing and do something else, it is important that your title reflects all of those things, so future employers and clients can accept it, and they can think to themselves, “someone else has already taken the risk, so my risk is minimized.” In reality, the cheapest thing an employer can do to make you happy is make sure your title corresponds with the work you are doing. I have an experience how this bit me in the behind. The quick story is: i took on more work than my job description, and when layoffs happened, my department was sent to centralized-corporate. Had I contacted the right people the moment my job duties expanded beyond my designated title, and matched my title to my actual duties, then things would have been much different because the real problem is it can take time for compensation to “catch up” to your title to what you can actually do.

    tl;dr: talk to your boss and get that word “Senior” in your title as soon as possible, and also try to get “Manager” or “Supervisor” in there. That shows growth also.
