MacBook Pro 15″ Retina 2014 for FCPX | Travelling Matt

I write, shoot, edit and publish corporate video for the web. Skip to primary content. MacBook Pro 15″ Retina 2014 for FCPX. 28 August, 2014. MacBook Pro 15 Retina Buyers remorse: I paid for extra GHz, should I have invested in a bigger SSD? I’ve finally got my MacBook Pro 15″ 2014 BTO – I went for the 2.8 GHz processor which lead to a 12 day wait as it was shipped to the UK from Shanghai. Was it worth the wait? Did I get the best bang for the buck? The biggest issue for us FCPX editors could be the lack...

TV Soup is Toast! | TV Soup
https://tvsoup.wordpress.com/2009/06/11/tv-soup-is-toast
Because television will be revolutionized. TV Soup is Toast! It’s taken a while, but I think I’ve now got the blogging ‘habit’. It’s all very well starting out with lofty intentions, but unless it’s part of your job description or you get some sort of tangible benefit from it, blogging can rapidly become a neglected chore that just ‘stops’ one day, and the blog site becomes a clogged site. TV Soup is closing down. Please change your bookmarks to my new blog home:. Feed You can leave a response. You are c...

TV Soup | because television will be revolutionized | Page 2
https://tvsoup.wordpress.com/page/2
Because television will be revolutionized. Lower Thirds done right. 31 March, 2009. We all need to do tummy tags. Name captions, usually running along the bottom of the screen. It’s part of the plumbing, rather than the showy part of a production. There’s a simple FCP generator if all you want is two lines of left aligned text at the bottom, with perhaps a strap behind it. But what happens when you’re doing a corporate job title? Well, I’ve simply got to rave about this…. Okay, so as well as doing. Almos...

Go with the workflow | TV Soup
https://tvsoup.wordpress.com/2009/06/07/go-with-the-workflow
Because television will be revolutionized. Go with the workflow. 15 months after going tapeless, I’ve just returned from a job where I was thoroughly glad we had tape. I needed to incorporate clips and quotes from the TX of a conference, recorded onto Grass Valley Turbo and onto tape. These clips would be edited together with general footage of the conference and played back in the conference’s main room. Locating the clips within the single file and chopping them out. It’s all down to workflow. You are ...

Tinkling the ivories | TV Soup
https://tvsoup.wordpress.com/2009/05/04/tinkling-the-ivories
Because television will be revolutionized. I’ve never thought about driving Final Cut Pro. I remember when I first started, going through the manual, getting all hung up on J-Cuts and doing the hunt-and-peck at the keyboard with a ready reference card at my side, but that was a long time ago. Now, I’m breezing along and the interface never really gets in the way. But I was cutting the other day with somebody who has recently joined the FCP camp, and he was incredulous. How come it works? All pro edit sys...

SDHC Cards – FYI | TV Soup
https://tvsoup.wordpress.com/2009/04/30/sdhc-cards-fyi
Because television will be revolutionized. SDHC Cards – FYI. I am known as an advocate and proponent of shooting to SD cards in the EX1 – I’ve never suffered a problem in all the time I’ve been using them, and I have 16x 16GB cards and 8x MxR adaptors plus my two original Kensington 7:1s. I’ve even managed to capture short bursts of 60fps material on them, but that’s a different story. But…. Today, I want to issue a little missive of warning. The snug-fitting SD case and my initial pressure in putting th...

Turbo Power | TV Soup
https://tvsoup.wordpress.com/2009/05/26/turbo-power
Because television will be revolutionized. There’s a particular Broadcast toy that’s been cropping up at more and more events that I film. It’s called the Grass Valley Turbo – basically, a sort of disk based VTR which can also work as a play-out solution. For those of you of a certain vintage, it’s a virtual betacart-in-a-box. Transfer all your tapes for a show into it, make a virtual running order, and just keep hitting the cue button. You could run a TV station on a couple of them. There’s no rea...
