An Unofficial Companion Guide to the Glyph ForteRaid Drive Array
by: 
 3/05/2012 9:49 AM
After many years of producing and engineering for various types of media projects, utilizing single drives for the various assets, then backing up to optical disks, I decided it was time to move into the world of Raid drive redundancy. I have, at various times, used Raid 0 setups, but that speed has a trade off…protection. After much research between various vendors, manufacturers, and creative pros alike, I decided I would enter the world of small drive arrays by purchasing a 4 disk 4 Terabyte Read More

by: 
 2/24/2012 2:13 PM
“Adobe Premiere Pro is our Swiss Army knife. We can put virtually any file onto the timeline—or mix and match a variety. The Adobe Mercury Playback Engine decodes just about anything and plays it back so quickly that as soon as we think of an idea, we can all view it and start fine-tuning.”

Debra Kaufman of Creative Cow Interviews Bill Roberts of Adobe as They Prepare for NAB 2012
by: 
 2/17/2012 11:43 AM
In this industry, you have to earn your stripes. Avid had to displace flat bed film editors. Apple had to get movies under its belt. With Adobe, it's been a different trajectory. If you look at motion graphics or visual effects, everyone thinks of After Effects and Photoshop, but Adobe has a different brand presence with Premiere Pro. Back when we first introduced Premiere Pro, there were of course some aspects that made editors happy, but other things related to how it worked or performance tha Read More

by: 
 2/08/2012 1:13 PM
Many of you are probably laughing at this title, and to be honest I still don’t believe that I like editing with Final Cut Pro X. It looks like iMovie and the workflow is totally different.
