Software Review: Premiere Pro CS5
by: 
 7/13/2010 1:21 PM
Well Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 has arrived, and has really upped the ante on performance… blowing the competition out of the water. Like a lot of the other products in the CS5 line, the big deal is that Premiere Pro is now 64 bit only. Of course this means you'll need a 64 bit processor, and 64 bit version of Windows or Mac OS to run it. This may be a downside for some folks out there, but for others, it's the first non-linear editing software to really make use of your computer's full potential. Read More

Adobe Premiere Pro CS5
by: 
 7/02/2010 11:04 AM
Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 ($799 list new, $299–$699 list upgrade) may not look much different from previous versions, but don't let appearances fool you. As with all the Creative Suite 5 applications, much has been changed, tweaked, and optimized under the hood to make Adobe's professional-targeted film- and video-editing application (along with its companion programs, OnLocation and Encore) more useful than ever.

Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects CS5 Review
by: 
 6/28/2010 11:22 AM
After Effects CS5 seems like a less necessary upgrade than Premiere Pro CS5, but that’s probably because After Effects doesn’t have a game-changer like Premiere does with its new Mercury playback engine. Read More

Videoguys Audio for Video Specials!
by: 
 6/24/2010 12:47 PM
An issue with DSLR cameras that you must consider while setting up your rig is audio quality. DSLR cameras are equipped with just the most basic microphone and the sound is just okay, at best. If your talent is more than 6 feet away from the camera your audio quality will diminish quickly. Fortunately, the Canon DSLR cameras are all equipped with a mini-jack microphone input and we recommend adding a stereo microphone like the Azden SMX-10. Read More

Matrox MXO2 MAX with Adobe CS5 and Avid MC5
by: 
 5/28/2010 9:22 AM
There are some great discussions going on at the Avid User Community Forums about the MXO2 Mini and the what if anyhting the MAX technology can do for Avid editors. I'm going to share some of that here with you.

Just to clarify: the max would work fine with MC5, just without H.264 acceleration?

Correct. If you purchase the Mini with Max, it will function exactly like a standard mini with MC5. The MAX technology just gets ignored Read More

DSLR Workflow in Premiere Pro CS5 - Keying, Time Remapping & Stills
by: 
 5/17/2010 1:26 PM
In this short video, I'll show you how to use the new Ultra Keyer in Premiere Pro CS5 to pull quick keys from your footage, even with unevenly lit green screen. Once again, the 'key' here (ha ha) is the fact that I'm running this process without rendering, leveraging the Mercury Playback Engine solely in software mode.

Following Ultra, we'll take a look at the Time Remapping feature (using a mixture of 60fps and 24fps footage), and then showcase the new Export Frame option, which very quic Read More

Premiere Pro CS5
by: 
 5/06/2010 11:37 AM
When Premiere Pro debuted on the Mac as part of Adobe CS3, it was as though Adobe took the license plate off that old moped in the garage and put it on a hot new motorcycle. With Premiere Pro CS4, Adobe continued to retool the program and retrofitted the Mac version to more closely match the Windows package. The latest version of Adobe’s professional video editing program doesn’t look much different at first glance. But taking it for a spin reveals that most of the work went into the engine.

Datavideo DN-500: Ultra dependable video recorder for legal depositions
by: 
 3/30/2010 9:02 AM
Legal videographers need to make high quality A/V recordings and archive safety copies of them for 60 to 90 days. Deposition videos are usually recorded and delivered on DVD and backed up to SVHS for failsafe copies. But with the pro video community as a whole moving away from tape as an acquisition or even backup up format, the obsolescence of SVHS tape as well as problematic storage and archiving issues, non-tape back up just makes more sense these days.

Macworld buying advice (4 mice)

The Thunder RAID eSATA/USB 2.0 Portable System is great for multi-stream video playback. The multiple RAID configurations give it an available degree of fault tolerance and reliability. At around 26 cents per gigabyte, we find the Thunder RAID well worth the few kinks we experienced during our RAID reconfigurations. Read More

An In-Depth Comparison of the Canon Rebel T2i and Canon EOS 7D
by: 
 3/03/2010 9:36 AM
If you are familiar with the more expensive Canon EOS 7D, you'll notice that quite a few of the features listed above were handed down from this camera. There is a lot of chatter online about the viability of the EOS 7D now that the Rebel T2i offers many of its features but with a price savings of $900 (based on street pricing). The thinking is that maybe they should get the Rebel T2i instead and put the extra $$$ toward better & faster lenses. Since this overview was written with the idea of he Read More
