Review: Glyph GPT50 external hard drive
by: 
 4/09/2012 1:29 PM
The GPT50 (7200RPM, 2TB for testing purposes) is a sleek desktop external hard drive that looks, feels and acts like a professional. It showcases a brushed aluminum faceplate and a scratch-resistant black powder-coated chassis. If you have ever worked in a rack-mount environment you have definitely felt solid machinery — the sharp lines and rugged-powder coated cases. Read More

DIY9 April Update - Now includes Budget System
by: 
 4/06/2012 2:48 PM
April 2012 update - now with FOUR recommended builds! Thanks to the release of the Intel i7 3820 Quad Core processor, we now have a DIY9 budget build! You can mix & match components between the three DIY9 P9X79 builds (Hot Rod vs Videoguys' Choice vs Budget). For those on a tight budget our DIY8 Sandy Bridge system based on the P8Z68 and i7 2600K processor is still fine choice, but I recommend finding the extra bucks to build our DIY9 budget machine, which comes in at just over $1500! For our Vi Read More

Review: Final Cut Pro 10.0.3
by: 
 4/05/2012 9:21 AM
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 Read More

Does Cloud Video Editing Make Sense for Pro Video
by: 
 3/29/2012 9:17 AM
It's hard to talk about software in 2012 without mentioning "the cloud". You've seen the ads from sofware vendors asking what your cloud strategy is? With all this hype, it's worth taking a look at the state of cloud video editing and the promise it could hold for Professional Video Editors. Read More

6 Films that Fueled the DSLR (R)evolution
by: 
 3/27/2012 1:54 PM
Our first blogger/filmmaker is Robin Schmidt. He is a great filmmaker, writer, and musician. His current personal project is a YouTube series called “Stenderz“, a weekly parody music video recapping that weeks episode of EastEnders, a soap opera on BBC One. I still have no idea what Eastenders is but I LOVE Stenderz, and look forward to seeing the how they pull of great productions every single week. Episode 9, The Katy Perry One went online last week and is arguably better than the original mus Read More

Crucial Adrenaline adds an SSD cache to your hard drive
by: 
 3/23/2012 11:15 AM
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 Read More

Hands on Mixing with an iPad – Avid Media Composer
by: 
 3/15/2012 11:25 AM
Now, Avid being Avid, the situation on Media Composer hasn’t been so easy. It was kind of driving me crazy as I spent much of the past year cutting on Avid again after a long time doing FCP job after FCP job. Every few weeks I’d troll the internet again looking for a way to do this; I’d re-read the Avid manuals and stare at all the menu options again and again to see what I’d missed. Media Composer 5.5 supports a few control surfaces – the Command | 8 , Euphonix Artist series, another Digidesign Read More

The new Vegas Pro 11 Render dialog
by: 
 3/14/2012 9:43 AM
Let's face it; there's nothing very sexy about rendering your video and audio projects. Everyone hates the render step, but everyone also recognizes that they can't get far with delivering their project without out it. So, like it or not, there has to be a render step. That's the unfortunate news. The good news is that the new Render As dialog box in Vegas Pro 11 makes the process a bit more pleasant than it was in earlier versions of the application. The new dialog box offers several improvemen Read More
