Sadly 10.8 finally convinced me to move to Resolve permanently, It’s been quite a ride with FCPX over the years and I’ve loved almost every moment of it.

Sadly it’ll never happen.

Yes, I second the “big arrow” technique. In the pre interview email, I ask the interviewee to have some post-it notes on hand, then, on the day, i ask them to draw an arrow pointing at the webcam and stick it on their screen! It’s a good icebreaker too.
