Using gestures to edit with Final Cut Pro X

Deyson — Thu, 10 May 2012 19:23:41 +0000

For all Final Cut editors. Here is a cool video on how to edit using gestures. It feels as if we are getting closer to editing video like in Minority Report. Very cool and Extremely time saving.

Watch the video demonstrating gestures with Final Cut X at this link: Using gestures to edit with Final Cut Pro X.

I think this is direction we are heading for video editing:

Rick Steves’ Europe: Special Episode: The Making of Rick Steves’ Europe – Watch the full episode now.

This video is great for those that want to learn how to run a small, tight and streamlined field team.

I am a huge fan of Rick Steve’s Europe TV show. The quality is beautiful, the cinematography is perfect and content is enriching.

I used to always think “Wow Rick is lucky, he gets to travel to all these places and relax and live the good life” as with many other things I have discovered, there is no luck involved, it takes hard work, passion and tons of dedication.

After watching this video I have gained even more respect for this show. The production team consists of 3 people, the director, photographer, and the host. All three of them do the grunt work and create as a smooth flowing team.

Is Final Cut Pro X going to do to video what Gutenberg did with printing?

Deyson — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 14:24:30 +0000

Here is a great article that I believe actually captures the vision Apple has for Final Cut X and beyond.

Excerpt from the article: “Suddenly the skills that had kept them in the roles that they had had for centuries started to change. They had to “retrain” and become proficient in the new technologies of their business.”

Here is the link to this great read: Is Final Cut Pro X going to do to video what Gutenberg did with printing?.

Thank you fcp.co for this great post!
