Re: [Avid-L2] Re: The FCPX thread

 

Yes, there are a lot of corporate/industrial companies out there that do lots of little video projects that will be quite happy with FCPX. No worries there. Again, I think the overwhelming backlash (they expected some) is what Apple got caught off guard with.

Whether it ever gets into the race for "pro" purposes or not is yet to be seen, but it can be a HUGE success without the "pros" ever cutting on it again. I think $299 is a little steep for the iMovie crowd, but just because I can't edit on it, doesn't mean that there isn't a HUGE audience of potential customers out there that will eat it up.

>> It occurs to me that FCP X has simply fractured the pro market one more time by potentially splitting the FCP share between FCP 7 and FCP X. It gets tough for schools. Film schools want to do what Hollywood does. That will still be Avid. Digital media ( the web pros ) are best served by Adobe. Will the coolness factor of FCP X win out? Hard to say. Seems like it's a 4 horse, not a 3 horse, race.
