Re: 10.0.3 and it's BIG - 13 years ago
BTW Saphire Edge 1.1 is out for FCPX 10.0.3 today. Red Giant Magic Bullet Looks is out for FCPX 10.0.3 today. Looks like Apple is working on the issues that held up some of the plugin development.by craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: 10.0.3 and it's BIG - 13 years ago
Walter I've already heard of other, albeit smaller, facilities moving to FCPX. Apple's silence on catchup features is just plan dumb business IMHO. Sometimes inscrutable has value but not on catchup features. I believe the reason why FCP7 to X is now possible is XML1.1. Again all Apple had to say is, "as our XML progresses, it should be possible and would be a good third party opportunby craig seeman - Café LA - X

Re: 10.0.3 and it's BIG - 13 years ago
This really points to Apple's marketing silence hurting them. Granted nobody wants to wait would could be a year or more (there's still more they need to do) but had they given the assurance that this was going to happen when they presented at the SuperMeet the uproar may have been reduced to a load grumble. Certainly some editors and facilities would still have moved (be moving) because FCby craig seeman - Café LA - X
10.0.3 and it's BIG - 13 years ago
Multicam up to 64 angles from multiple codecs (mixed formats) too. Broadcast Monitoring (still beta) through AJA, Blackmagic (Matrox to come) with PCIe and Thunderbolt. Layered Photoshop files now supported. FCP7 Projects in FCPX via Phillip Hodgetts' utility ($10). Re-Linking! Major improvement in ChromaKey And I like the implications that this is only a 0.3 and not 10.1. I think they haby craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: A brand new plugin from Graeme Nattress, Levels and Curves - 13 years ago
There seems to be lots of movement in this space. Moods brings back the Color Wheel as an overlay. Also Simon Ubsdell has a free one in beta also based on color wheels but a minimal interface.by craig seeman - Café LA - X

Re: Supplemental Content ??? - 13 years ago
Sure there is. It's right here. This update adds the following content for use in Final Cut Pro X: Sound Effects: Over 1300 rights-free sound effects installed into the Audio Browser of Final Cut Pro X. Audio Effect Presets: Additional preset effects for the Space Designer plug-in.by craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: Supplemental Content ??? - 13 years ago
This actually presents an interesting predicament for facility distribution. While using an image do to multiple installs of FCPX is great but imagine if that then means you have 17 systems that must download several Gigabytes of additional content. I do hope you have really good download bandwidth and or don't try downloading the content on all the seats at the same time. While the additional cby craig seeman - Café LA - X

Re: FCP X dead for Professionals? - 13 years ago
A dissolve is the stock transition. Command T is add cross dissolve and I believe that default can't be changed (as of yet). I have no problem dragging any of the transitions on to a title clip though. Drag it over the title and when the green plus appears it's good to go. This method puts the transition at both sides. You'd then delete on the side you don't want if that's your objective. Otheby craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: FCP X dead for Professionals? - 13 years ago
Titles work fine for me. Add Title as Connected Clip, select it, Command T and transition is added and Title becomes Secondary Storyline. Select end of Title and Transition is added there. Select entire title and Transition is added on both ends. Same as Connected Clips.by craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: FCP X dead for Professionals? - 13 years ago
Adding transitions has worked fine for me since they added it in 10.0.1. Now at 10.0.2. Are you sure you're up to date? Add transition to Connected Clip and it becomes a Secondary Storyline automatically.by craig seeman - Café LA - X

Re: FCP X dead for Professionals? - 13 years ago
QuoteThe biggest hurdle Apple will have in getting FCPX back into all the shops they used to dominate is the trust factor. Is it my age or background. I don't trust any NLE developer. They've all done things that impact one's security. Avid did it when they said they were going to stop developing for Mac (although they didn't). Adobe did it when they were slow to put PremierePro on Mac. Avid aby craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: FCP X dead for Professionals? - 13 years ago
Some companies think emotionally. Others are very mercenary since overhead is a critical part of their business model. If the next FCPX update covers much of the missing pieces some of the companies who are waiting may transition to it. It's not about waiting around so much as moving when one needs to financially. FCP7 still works for some. For others it has serious drawbacks being 32bit andby craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: FCP X dead for Professionals? - 13 years ago
It's already being used in broadcast in a limited capacity. Many of the post season major league baseball games apparently had segments cut in the truck on FCPX. One of the freelance editors who used it reported first hand. I've heard other stories. All anecdotal and obviously not pervasive but it is happening despite the lack of monitoring. It seems the element in common is that most of theseby craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: FCPX Feature Wish List - 13 years ago
Richard Harrington, who that information was taken from, stated he was misquoted and that he had no direct information. I think Jon's doubts are probably more sound. One might guess that FCP8 is feature request but I think we should limit it to FCPX feature requests at this stage in product development.by craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: speed change quality - 13 years ago
Only the developers know for sure but I've heard it's all based on the technology in Shake. That doesn't mean changes weren't made in the implementation. I can't see a development team in a company implementing different methods to the same end in a symbiotic product line. I'd expect "core engines" to be the same but end user controls of such might be improved in some products. I cerby craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: FCPX Feature Wish List - 13 years ago
I guess I can't believe equating rumor with "actual." Richard Harrington later stated that he was just repeating what he heard and had no direct knowledge. While some of us might anthropomorphize business decisions (and apparently even the Supreme Court has done that), what some might see as hubris is really economic decision making (even if companies miscalculate).

Re: speed change quality - 13 years ago
Twixtor has customization that doesn't exist in Motion or FCPX. The optical flow in Apple's products is based on the technology that existed in Shake. It's actually quite good. It lacks the customization of Twixtor though.by craig seeman - Café LA - X

Re: Outpost Digital's founder Evan Schectman says, that's it, he's moving his facility to . . . - 13 years ago
I posted that here at that time. Most of the general stuff is the same with addition of some of the new features such as roles. I think the more interesting stuff is the side comments he makes given that he's a beta tester for the next big release. He's gone from, "I haven't used it for any paying work," to "I'm going to move my facility to it on the next release."by craig seeman - Café LA - X
Re: Outpost Digital's founder Evan Schectman says, that's it, he's moving his facility to . . . - 13 years ago
They were definitely shooting so it should get posted at some point. He made some interesting comments outside of his "normal" presentation. He seemed to be dropping hints about server related stuff through Lion and FCPX (obviously my interpretation).by craig seeman - Café LA - X
