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

Is Final Cut Pro X going to do to video what Gutenberg did with printing?
by: 
 3/14/2012 10:09 AM
We think we are right in the middle of a revolution in media. This exclusive article from Robert Buller asks is history repeating itself? Essential reading for anybody who works in the media, thought provoking stuff indeed. In 1440, Johannes Gutenberg invented a printing press process that, with refinements and increased mechanisation, remained the principal means of printing today. The inventor's method of printing using movable type, including the use of metal molds and alloys, a special p Read More

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 for the Videographer
by: 
 3/12/2012 4:17 PM
Jeremiah is not much of a still photographer; his passion is in motion pictures, not stills. So a couple of years ago he saw Vincent Laforet's "Reverie" he knew that he would have to learn to shoot with a DSLR. He has found the process to be both fun and frustrating, expensive in some areas (priced a matte box lately?) and ridiculously cheap in others (reusable SDHC versus a case of tape). Read More

Sony Vegas Pro 11 Advanced Editing Software Review
by: 
 3/12/2012 10:58 AM
Vegas Pro 11 is a welcome upgrade to this classic professional editing tool. Some software upgrades are about flashy new interfaces and sexy new features, and others have more to do with supercharging the engine under the hood in order to boost the overall performance. This past year, video editing tools have been working on the flashy side with support for working with 3D video, but the real focus has continued to be on the machinery - taking advantage of today's 64-bit architectures to work Read More
