there is an FCP certification exam at NAB. Anybody know how intensive it is? Is it a big help to have a certificate when looking for work?
 
Re: Certification Exam

The Level 1 exam isn't too bad. I just took it.
If you brush up from the Apple Pro Training Series FCP book, you'll be fine.
Just read the questions on the test carefully.

I don't think it's a bad thing at all to be certified, but good work is what will get you the most jobs. If you're looking to get hired by a production house, then having "Final Cut Pro Certified" on your resume and business card can't hurt.

Wich books Meauxfeaux? I got Diana Weynand´s book for christmas. Will it be enough for something like level 1 or will need more info on other books?
 
Re: Certification Exam

The Weynand book is all you need. That's the book that certified courses are taught from.
If you take the Level 2 exam, you'll need to familiarize yourself with the material in the "Final Cut Pro: Advanced Editing and Finishing Techniques", also a part of the Apple Pro Training series. That book was assembled by Digital Film Tree.
