    I like Adobe Premier better.

    @quikboy: Adobe Premier lacks the power and ease of use of Final Cut. Adobe lost the Video war when it comes to editing. Adobe After Effects is where its at though for Motion Graphic related work.

    @imTheKing: I pretty much agree, I've used avid, premiere, and FCP. And FCP wins hands down, other NLE's, are just trying to play catch up, IMHO.

    @beekerstudios: I whole heartedly disagree. Final cut is trying to catch up with avid (in the professional field). FCP lacks some basic features that are necessary. For example, making a C-Mode EDL. FCP has a few features that I like, but it is a long way until it catches up to Avid professionally.

    @whatachiouche: if you're editing 35mm or tapes - Avid is ahead - as you pointed out.

    But i hate to say it - 35mm and tapes are dead, dude.

    All my XDCAM footage lives on mirrored LaCie rugged drives held together with ducktape - i've never lost any footage and i've had two drive failures. i ship one of the mirrored drives separately after the shoot, or two separate people carry them back - usually we don't fill the drives, so the footage is on 3 or four drives as we travel home by duping it to empty drives on the last night.

    don't be a douchebag Windows luzer. $1300 was a steal... $1000 is practically giving it away.

    To put it in perspective - I just bought a wide-angle lens converter that cost more than FCP.

    if you need it, its unbelievably cheap.

    I like it... Is there any hope for Blu-Ray authoring in DVD Studio Pro? I mean, looking at their site, DVD Studio Pro seems to have dropped off the map.

    @funkydude101: If you are good at making things out of clay, you could always put up some kind of table in the middle of your town and offer to make clay statues of people who walk by. They'd have to sit for awhile while you completed your statues, and while you sculpted them, you could chit chat and become their friend. Then, at the end of the session, you could tell them that even though you initially intended to charge them for your artistry, you had since become such good friends, the statue is your gift to them, a small token of your excellent friendship. Hug them, and then laugh about how easy it will be to clean up the wet clay you've inadvertently transfered to their clothes.


    Then, to solidify the friendship, so that you're not just friends for a day, or a year, but forever, you could tie one of your legs to one of their legs, like you're going to do a 3-legged race, while you wait for the clay to dry. And then just walk around town like that, with them, for an hour or two, with your legs tied together, and you will bond like friends who have known each other forever.


    If you do this every day for month, you will have so many friends, you won't know what to do with them!
