  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

FinalCutStudio2

The RED video on Apple's site just made my day...

Mmmmm.... Milk girls. hehe I can't wait to see what RED has in store for tomorrow. :)
 
Yippikayee!
 
I just ordered my FCS upgrade... Figured I'd just get it over with. Color alone alone justifies it. Besides, with Motion 3 and FC6 letting us finally mix different formats and frame rates on the same timeline, how could anyone resist?

Just got home and checking out the FCS options. mmm....finally different formats in FCP.
Motion really matured. I just love new 3d options.
Color came. Great news.
 
I was hoping the color corrector was integrated within FCS2. A Camera shake plugin? I used istablize for over 2 years now, where was Apple back then? Still same old interface. Now that shake is gone where's the high end compositor? Motion.....? Ya right!!!! DVDSP was untouched, besides a few presets added. I guess the only reason for NAB is the RED for me and few other companies. WTF is Apple focusing on? Ipods and phones. This FCS is no match for AVID. And is Final Touch Apple's new "COLOR"???????
 
Color is based on Final Touch, yes... It is included with FCS2.

All things considered, it looks like Apple has moved a lot of Shake's features into Motion 3, but no new compositor yet. I do know they're working on one. My only gripe about all the new stuff is that DVDSP4 is unchanged. Color is a nice inclusion and given the price there's no reason not to upgrade - especially if you're like me and have been hoping for a low cost color grading app. Sure, there's better options out there and all kinds of cool toys like SCRATCH, but my budget only allows for so much. I'm already scratching at $50K-$60K in new hardware/software this year by my projections. Of course, that includes my RED package, but I've got to draw the line somewhere. FCS2 is only a $500 upgrade to those who are already using FCS now anyway.
 
As for plugins Colorista looks pretty good and it's a FXplug for 32 bit processing
 
That was really exciting to watch; really awesome.

EDIT: I just watched the Coen brothers video too, and that was very inspiring.
