Conan just ripped on FCPX

[kgimedia]

No link yet but I just watched a funny spoof/satire video with the editors of Conan on the FCPX release. They made classic editing "errors" while telling us how awesome it is. I love that show.

BTW is this a Cafe ala DVX post or is this ok here?

I'd laugh, but I only have about a year on my FCS 3 upgrade.

I guess Conan needs new editors. And he should get some new writers while he's at it.

Nah, on second thoughts, why bother.

 

[Matt Gottshalk]

That was great.

 

[tom.wong]

brilliant!

 

[Hawk Teflon]

Ha ha! That's awesome!

 

[Scott F]

Brilliant. The people have spoken: 509 likes and only 4 thumbs down.

 

[VMT]

He's still on? Thought he had disappeared into cable oblivion.

We can laugh about the shortcomings of FCPX now, but I think Apple/FCPX will have the last laugh.

... not if there is a class action. Apple kinda played dirty leaving many people high and dry

In the NY Times Pogue comments, CB writes

Many of us are Apple pro trainers who understand every aspect of the software. Do you have any idea how many hours of our lives we spend on these systems? There are actual livelihoods at stake, people who run post houses who will lose clients, pro trainers who have been completely left out of the loop by Apple and just lost most of their work. Pro editors will survive - we'll switch to Avid. En masse. But many people are infuriated by what has happened

 

[Wilbur Eddings]

Pwned.

Conan 1 - Apple $1 GAZZILION off casual editors like my (very hot) wife (who is very hot) who thinks it's the best thing since 3 ply toilet paper!
(Sorry about the 'very hot' thing, slips out every time I mention my (very hot) wife. Dammit, there it goes again!).

 

[Hawk Teflon]

Odd that you use that reference, Wilbur, considering most of the professional editors would treat 3-ply toilet paper and FCX the same.
