Editor's Lounge NAB 2013


They've been doing this for ten years but its the first time Ive seen it!  These are some very informative videos for the learning editor like myself. This one (in four parts) was made right before NAB 2013. 

It makes me feel better that FCPX is spoken of in a slightly better light. At least it appears as though it will morph and change into a highly useful tool that has some better support and is rock solid compared to a few other NLE's. Keep in mind this is just my impression so far. We are still using FCP 6 and it is still working fine. We had considered making the change to Avid last year but we are glad we didn't make the change yet... if at all. Our new iMac will be arriving in days-time and soon we will convert out entire operation to FCPX and Adobe.


In Part 1 of 4 they discuss 3D, 4K, & High Frame Rate.




In 2 of 4 they discuss multi-screen, the Cloud, remote editing, the future of brick-n-mortar post houses & NLE's (thumbs up or down).


In Part 3 of 4 they discuss NLE's in Depth (Avid, Apple, Adobe), What editor's want, Is Film dead? & Archival solutions (LTO).




In Part 4 of 4 they are discussing what they want to see at NAB, H.265, Ultra-HD, Post industry slump, Assistant editors, AE, Mac Pro & the Studio Distribution stranglehold.


What do you think of these videos?
