I always suspected that you were the lowest of the low. Until now that was on my resume. Guess I’ll have to think of another superlative for myself.

You are blessed.

No, it’s not huge deal. But it is a deal. And it’s a deal that would cost me clients. Believe me, mine don’t want to hear about it. Even if I could make it work in my little world, based on the company’s clearly demonstrated ambivalence to workflows that don’t suit its idea of the future, I have to cast a baleful eye on FCPX.

I have not noticed any bullying here. I have noticed diverging opinions and people trying to understand how other people think and why. But I have not seen bullying.

I do a bit of doc work and also a five camera TV show. In both cases I do a lot of compressing statements (or creating statements with spare parts) via audio editing, but it is particularly important to me that the relationship between the video and the audio of a given clip is always maintained. I am not saying that FCP X cannot accomplish virtually any editorial task in some way. I’m just saying that I can accomplish what I need to faster and more efficiently with other NLE’s at present. I think they are probably instances where it would be faster and more efficient. A multicamera music piece with a set audio track that doesn’t not need editing would be a good example. But for most of what I do the grass in greener elsewhere.

Glad it works for you. But believe me I have tried very hard to do what I do and it just doesn’t work for me. Too many workarounds. Given the price point I would love it to work for me but it just doesn’t. There’s that and the fact that every other week I read in one forum or another about a problem that is an absolute deal breaker. Such as not being able to slip the audio from the video in the cut.

[Jeremy Garchow] “Audio editing could use some help”
And that’s my principal problem. While I do a lot of picture editing, I do a lot more dialog editing.

Thanks, Richard. Pretty much what I thought. Sounds like both parties decided to stand on principal and one lost.

Unless I read it wrong she was not compelled to do anything. She refused service and then tried to claim some sort of religious exception for doing so. But I – and please point it out to me if I am wrong – don’t see where anyone compelled her to do anything. She’s being sued because she refused to provide a service soley based on her judgement that gay marriage should not be “celebrated.” Am I getting this wrong here?

I think often a hammer is the proper tool, short of a French revolution sort of thing. Otherwise it’s just like trying to talk sense into a bully. It rarely works.
