lafcpug meetings are now made possible by Autodesk
lafcpug is 11 years old
Wednesday, June 15, 2011
Wasn't sure if we would do a meet in June as I will be in London for the UK SuperMeet, but there is just too much to see and do, and hey, it's lafcpug's 11th birthday so come on up the hill and help us celebrate.
You've seen the Supermeet sneak peek; you've heard Larry Jordan tell what we know about Final Cut Pro X, now hear Philip Hodgetts' expose of what we don't know! Want to know about the technology, project format, plug-ins and much of the rest of what Apple hasn't announced yet? Philip has been researching and writing about what Apple has been up to with Final Cut Pro X for the last year or more, and has been "scary accurate". Know what you need to know before you download FCPX.
Plus, and this is WAY overdue, Lonnie Ramati, Executive VP of Millennium Films, will talk on the trials and tribulations and pitfalls of Film Financing, Production and Distribution and take your questions. Know before you shoot and know what to do after your movie is done.
Plus Brian Denny will show us how to deal with "multi-camera crap." Or better yet, "How to maybe fix it in Post."
Plus another round of Stump The Gurus, Show and Tells, and balloons. You must register for this event. Get out of the house and come wish us a Happy Birthday.
If FCPX is released prior to the meet, everything changes.
NOTE: lafcpug generally meets every 4th Wednesday of the Month
Meetings are open to public and ALL beginning through advanced FCS users and Digital Story Tellers are welcome
First come best seat. A $5.00 donation will be requested at the door
Agenda (subject to change)
6:45- 7:15PM - Stump the Gurus
Join FCS Gurus Misha Tenenbaum, Steve Kanter and David Roth Weiss as they will attempt to answer all of your questions and solve all of your problems concerning FCS. If they can't solve your problem or answer your question, then you go home with a problem, but you still got out of the house, so that's not a bad thing.
7:20PM - 7:30PM - Announcements (if time available)
This is a chance to get up and ask for a job, offer job opportunities, announce your film or service, or tell a bad joke.
7:30PM - 7:55PM - "What to do with multi-camera Crap" or How to fix it in Post." (maybe) - Brian Denny.
Multi-camera editing in FCP is all well and good as long as every camera angle is shooting the same event. But that simplicity goes out the window when you are asked to assemble a "mulit-camera" shoot using only one camera, and where each take is of a slightly different performance with live music and duration differences. Then throw in a jib arm and camera mic audio to complicate matters, and you have a "minefield-o'-fun" to navigate through. Brian Denny will share with us some real-world technics he developed to handle the massive curve-ball a client recently threw to him after they shot a dance choreography demo for "Dancing with the Stars" using a Canon 7D. Did he hit a home-run? You decide and there is lots talk about.
8:00PM - 8:30PM - Film Financing, Production and Distribution - Lonnie Ramati
Lonnie Ramati, Executive VP of Millennium Films, will talk on the trials and tribulations and pitfalls of Film Financing, Production and Distribution and take your questions. Know before you shoot and know what to do after your movie is done.
About Lonnie Ramati:
Lonnie Ramati has 26 years of experience in the film, television and music business as a business affairs employee and as a business affairs and financial consultant and with over 300 Films.

Mr. Ramati is currently Executive VP Business And Legal Affairs for Millennium Films, Inc. and Nu Image, Inc.
8:30PM - 9:00PM - Break
In the lobby will be many FCS Gurus. This is your chance to ask questions. No questions? Then talk to each other. The break is a chance to hang out and meet and greet and get your problems solved and who knows, get a job. You never know who you are going to meet at lafcpug. Snacks and Beer and Wine will be on sale in the lobby. Proceeds go to the Gallery Theater.
9:00PM - 9:40PM - Preparing for Final Cut Pro X - Philip Hodgetts
You've seen the Supermeet sneak peek; you've heard Larry Jordan tell what we know about Final Cut Pro X, now hear Philip Hodgetts expose of what we don't know! Want to know about the technology, project format, plug-ins and much of the rest of what Apple hasn't announced yet. Philip has been researching and writing about what Apple has been up to with Final Cut Pro X for the last year or more, and has been "scary accurate". From AV Foundation to the metadata foundation, Hodgetts has been the most accurate source on Final Cut Pro X since May 2010.
9:40PM - 9:50PM - Show and Tell - G-Phi
I’d like to show some of my latest videos that I’ve worked on.
One is with use of Trapcode Form and how video reacts to audio which was edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5, effects created in Adobe After Effects and sounds composed in Logic Pro.
The other is an attempt at doing something somewhat funny edited in Final Cut Pro and composited in Adobe After Effects sounds created and arranged in Logic Pro.
The last video is a Kinetic Typography video, which I created entirely in Adobe After Effects.
