    On the hardware side, most likely picking up one of the Blackmagic Design 4k cameras. I may also be looking at an upgraded workstation. On the software side, I’m sticking with a the Adobe suite, but I’m also in the process of evaluating Fusion to see how it can enhance my work. I’m also keeping an eye on Furry Ball and Octane renderers.

    Have you tried eliminating AE as the culprit by opening the sequence in a different player, like QT or Scratch?

  • [Jeremy Garchow] ”
    The first two seasons (a whopping 6 ‘episodes’!) just arrived on Netflix in the US a few weeks ago. It’s a British show, so it’s ‘foreign’ to me as well. 🙂 Pretty great satire on ‘amusing ourselves to death’. The show is commonly referred to as “sci-fi” which seems to be a bit of a misnomer. If you can find it, its worth checking out.”

    +1 for Black Mirror, it is a great show. 🙂

    I highly recommend it.”

    Just bought it, thanks for the recommendation. 🙂

    NDAs are contracts. The parties they bind may both/all be corporations.

    I’d cite the NDAs that my company is bound to as examples, but I can’t disclose that without opening my company up to serious liability.

    Instead, I’ll cite Wikipedia:”

    Dang, scooped by Walter Soyka again! 🙂

    Tim, I would be nervous to even HINT at things covered by NDAs which were signed by my company (which I’m obviously bound to). It really is that big of a deal. I’m sure Tim Wilson or Dennis could tell you all about it. 🙂

    “NDAs are commonly signed when two companies, individuals, or other entities (such as partnerships, societies, etc.) are considering doing business and need to understand the processes used in each other’s business for the purpose of evaluating the potential business relationship.”

  • [TImothy Auld] “Get a grip fellas. NDA’s do not apply to corporations. Corporation set the terms of NDA’s. If you think that Apple or Warner Brothers are constrained by any NDA the you are deluded.

    Tim”

    No… NDAs between corporations are as common as rainwater in Seattle. EVERYONE respects them and NO ONE breaks them, those that do open themselves up to years of litigation and potentially millions of dollars in court costs and fees. So yes, I think Charlie is completely right. Breaking agreements and running roughshod over WB’s marketing department does nothing for Apple, playing nice helps them retain access.

    [Andrew Kimery] ” 2001 is a great story, but I doubt it would be the movie classic it is if it was shot in Kubrick’s basement on an 8mm Brownie camera with repurposed cardboard boxes for sets. ;)”

    lol – I think Michel Gondry did just that in Be Kind Rewind… 🙂

    [Oliver Peters] “[Shawn Miller] ” I believe that Vegas used the term project in the usual sense (a container for everything you might put on the timeline).”

    It’s both. A project has a single timeline. You can open multiple instances of Vegas, each with a single timeline. I think their rationale is from the DAW world. So a timeline is basically analogous to a “track sheet”.

    – Oliver”

    Yes, you’re right. I think I was confusing Vegas with Encore. It all seems to blend together after a while. 🙂
