[berserk]

i was seriously thinking about taking up porn as a career... actor director... cameraman... whatever...

but yeah i do this... documentaries... videos n shit... all low budget wack ass shit... but you know my graphics stay tight.. so that makes shit look slightly acceptable...

I do some paid video work, some vj work, some local tv network stuff tho. Anybody know about kino here? (www.kino00.com) I did that to. I've done some animated short movie, stop motion, carton, experimental video, fiction. Check my website for sample of my work. I did alot af music for other director tho, that's what I'm after really.

I use Final Cut pro and Premier pro tho. IStopmotion for stop motion. Arkaos and Grid for live VJing. Webcams, DV camera, DVcam Camera.... A pretty boost up PC, a PC with a matrox editing card in it, my own powerbook g4...

ive hidden the cam while a girl with a reputation came over.yo dnt u got a mac and a pc so do u use final cut on the mac? if u do which u like betta premiere or fcp

 

[MaximeRobin]

Yep I prefer Final cut; it is easier to manipulate the video (cropping and changing size). I don't like the cheap ass realtime render of Premier pro, I prefer the "always" rendering state of final cut. But all in all, it's pretty much the same stuff. At first sight, it's hard to view the difference between final cut pro 4 and premier pro 1.5, even the windows layout are the same... So basicly, I work with final cut when I'm on my computer and on a PC, I work with premier pro. I didn't worked with the regular version of premier (6.5) tho.

Not anymore, with the advent of the Adobe CS bundle and Final Cut Pro, the playing field has been leveled. I teach Media Technology, which in Texas means audio and video production. We run both of the software that I just mentioned and we have one older media100 system. Avid express is nice but not any better than Final cut or Premiere pro. Just like the software topics for audio production, it has become user preference with relation to video editing.

I always thought that Avid was the best but I just don't have thst kind of money

ftdub im takin media technology major in boston,, plus we got photography classes and graphic art classes when i first came to the school 2 years ago they had media 100 and avid now they got rid of it and put the new final cut pro i think its 3 or 4 its pretty sick. i just got premiere 6.5 now im hoping its not too much diffrent, i like how the menus are setup like they are in photoshop it creates a familiar workspace

If you like Premiere 6.5 then you'll love Pro. They made A quantum leap. To me I rank the software as such Final Cut, Avid Express, Premiere Pro, However that is just preference. They can all do the same things. I teach alot of Premiere and Final cut because it is cheaper. Premiere is probably the easiest to use, especiallay if you know photshop which everyone does.

Five years ago it was, but remeber when Vestax was the only good battle mixer. Playing fields level.
