 Kurt often gets asked about trends and what Sorenson Media may be working on to address the needs of the video professional/enterprise customer focused on encoding/transcoding. It's probably worth discussing what Sorenson Media is doing today - things that many of you may not be aware of. Our desktop application, Squeeze has been available since 2001 and we released v8 back in November. Additionally, we released a Pro version just recently which added support for Avid DNxHD® encoding, Apple ProR

 In Tor's opinion, Apple prematurely released Final Cut Pro X this past June. That’s pretty much why he didn’t opt to review it for Post until now. It just wasn’t ready for prime time. Nor was the professional post market ready to downgrade from Final Cut Pro 7. All that has changed in just a few months, especially with the release of Version 10.0.3. Now with downloadable updates from the App Store, it seems clear that Apple will be making constant improvements to the functionality of the softw

 Today I had the opportunity to meet with Crucial and learn about their new Adrenaline product. I am very intrigued by this concept. I see it as being a potential homerun for video editors. Professional NLE apps like Avid Media Composer and Adobe Premiere take a while to open up. The more plug-ins. pre-sets and fonts you use, the longer it takes the host app to initially open. Talk to someone who uses Photoshop all the time and has tons of fonts, and they'll tell you the same thing. Creative fol
