Wow, sorry to hear. I have had my film on their Vimeo on Demand for years as an alternative to amazon Prime (90% watch it on Prime) just wanted a second option. I haven’t received any notification from Vimeo about this change at this point. I’ll keep an eye out.

I will third Screenflow : ). Nice options in that little program.

I actually mostly do it that way also (quickly) unless it’s a big enough job that the client works out the permit. The time-lapse is super gutsy. I notice a lot fewer Park Rangers these days. I don’t know if that’s budget cuts or what but it’s been easier to get shots in the past few years around here. The last time I shot I seen saw a…

Hi Bob, having shot on federal land for years, I can share with you, how the tripod rule and its history came about, as it was explained to me. Years ago I wanted to shoot inside The Old Courthouse (famous for the Dred Scott case) in St. Louis. I knew about the permit rule as I have shot on the Arch grounds that sit near by, for years. My plan…

OMG, Glenn. You are taking me down memory lane with “Dubner”. Hadn’t heard that in years. I used to fly Grass Valley’s DPM 700 “DVE” back in my TD days. As far as that side panel graphic, not sure. Seems to me that “Pardon the Interruption” on ESPN popularized it years ago. We have large vertical studio side panels on set that we can put…

Hi Daniel, with a Multicam/multichannel clip in the timeline, you should be able to select that clip and select “expand audio components” and see all of your audio tracks and adjust them and even add filters to them separately. You should also see them in the inspector. Are you not seeing all the tracks when you expand the components?

I have not seen the issues that you have listed here, but I have seen some random bugginess from time to time. Odd behavior on keys dropped in the timeline then command z and it works the next time🤔 I’m running Cat 10.15.7 and X 10.4.10. I feel like at this point the pattern is going to always be, fix something something else breaks and repeat.…

Hi Jim, as Live Sports is a big part of what I do, I was getting prepared for huge changes as I really didn’t believe sports could overcome this for a long time. I was wrong. Sports figured it out and I returned to work inside the bubble. Sports has shown society the way forward in the past (Jackie Robinson comes to mind) and I believe it’s…

The best program I know of for something like that is Izotope RX. You would need to spend some time with it if you haven’t used it. It really depends on how bad the barking is and if it’s over the person speaking.

I hear ya, but some things really don’t have much to do with style. There is a loud bang in the background and you cut it out. You’re going to close that gap at some point. What editor would leave a hole there in the timeline? that’s something that every editor is going to do and doesn’t have anything to do with style. One thing I liked about…

Yes, that’s just one simple example. Rippling the timeline shut by default is another, keeping things in sync by default is another. It took me really getting into a Pr project for it to click in my head the main difference with X and other NLEs and it’s that more times than not it is defaulting to what most editors would do in a certain…

I knew what you were trying to say about 3-point editing, it just doesn’t negate my point, which is that this simply task is fewer keystrokes in X. I shouldn’t have to select that clip at all. “You can achieve the same in Premiere, but it does require two keystrokes.” Then it’s not the same it’s more keystrokes which is my entire point. Is it…

With the playhead just past an edit, when selecting “O”, I want the “in point” to default to the closest edit point like this example in X. Not the beginning of the timeline.

Yeah, I guess I would like that, but what I would really like to see with Motion is for them to just add more elements to it. More backgrounds, more behaviors. Same with X. I think those are the same backgrounds they had when they first introduced the program. I know how Pr works, I just want it to default to the next edit like X. That’s how…

I listened to this whole thing and enjoyed the conversation. I thought everyone had interesting points. I recently did my first client job in Pr and can certainly see why so many people like it. You can pretty much do anything you need to with that program. I used it on my nMP and it had no problems at all. Zero crashes. After using it and…

Great Kristin.

It appears that you may have this far right display option selected.

I have not been asked for Dolby at this point Tim but I’m very interested in ProRAW myself. So much of my work is fast turn around to air and at the top of the list is really volume. They want a bunch of shots to choose from. I agree with your point on news coverage with the phone though. I’m in St Louis and not too far from Ferguson where…

I have this problem also. The work around until they fix it, is to select the waveform at the top(after you have selected an item) and hit pay. After that it seems to work normal until you select music and then go back to Sound Effects again. then I have to repeat. Irritating.

I completely agree about the audio. I usually tell people who want to get started with gear for a living that you need to have these essential items. 1. Boom mic 2. wireless lav 3. Tripod that you can make “on air moves” with. (lost art) 4. lighting 5. client monitor. Once a person has bought those items they are not likely to finish off with a…

Catalyst Browse has been a crash fest also lately aside from imports to X.

I don’t know about others, but it’s been beachball city since I did that update in FCP X.

“But an FCPX mixer? Don’t hold your breath” I remember when people thought they weren’t going to add Multicam and curves also

I joking call it that when you are zoomed so far down you are looking at one frame until you skim. I just like to see more because I can in X. I see him pointing at his neck and I know that’s the section where he’s talking about the Owl’s vertebra. I don’t have to skim and look for it, I can see it right there and go to it faster. I guess I’m impatient

Thanks Oliver, I actually asked him directly on the Youtube page and he gave me a very thoughtful response. I’ve come around a bit on it because even pushing all the way down to a single frame in X it still retains the data of favorites and used in timeline (which I use all the time). He’s kind of pushing for a combination for both. X could add…

I’m guessing it’s pretty common to work that way in MC because there is no filmstrip mode in the program or in Pr either. While it has those 3 view options, none of them are showing me what I really want to see most. That video made me wonder how many people are using “Stamp mode” in X for their clips and not taking advantage of the visual…

I like his list and his videos. The only one I’m not sure about is 11. He looks to be grouping clips in a bin in Avid but X is designed to group clips by keywords so I wonder why he wouldn’t just tag them and group them that way instead of wanting to move the clips themselves around. I also wonder if he uses the filmstrip mode in X instead of…

I’m running RX8 also and no problems here with the FCP X plugins.

Thanks for the heads up on that. I’m finally on my new Mac Pro and running Cat. Still learning my way around. That’s a nice feature.

It is with great thanks that we honor the Men and Women we lost while serving this country, so that we can be reminded of their sacrifices.
