    You should make t-shirts with that slogan! It’s a good one.

    Regarding slates:

    LOS ANGELES NEWS SERVICE; ROBERT TUR, Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. CBS BROADCASTING, INC.; COURTROOM TELEVISION NETWORK, Defendants-Appellees

    OVERVIEW: The copyright holder owned copyrights to videotape footage of the beating of a truck driver during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. Plaintiffs claimed that a video news service owned by the broadcasting company’s predecessor had distributed the copyrighted works to recipients including the network. The network used a few seconds of the footage to promote news coverage and as part of the introduction to one of its programs. Plaintiffs had agreed to a stipulated dismissal of their initial suit against defendants, but refiled their complaint after the parties failed to reach a settlement. The appellate court found, inter alia, that the district court erroneously excluded certain evidence on the basis of the stipulation agreement. As a videotape of allegedly infringing footage and its identifying slate were not hearsay and were sufficiently authenticated, there was enough admissible evidence to preclude summary judgment as to whether the broadcasting company was liable for infringement. However, the network’s use of the footage was protected as fair use given some transformative use, the factual nature of the work, the small portion of footage used, and market considerations.

    Same amount of time? No. 7 times faster.

    I already posted about it, ages ago. In a nutshell, when I taught hs, I taugh PP and X. The students were up and running in X, 2 weeks quicker — a two week lesson in PP was 1 day in X.

    This is also evidence of what Bill has said over and over and over ad nauseum until even the choir are rolling our eyes: trained editors have to disintoxicate their minds.

    Audio has really sped up for me. The compressor and limiter is spot-on perfect. Instead of round tripping to STP, I just CMD-8. It’s unbelievably faster AND more accurate.
