[Avid-L2] OT: Re: downconverting to SD for DVD now you want mean?

 

Oh you call that mean you haven't been in the chair a while have you? You want mean, "Then act like an editor and edit dammit that's what I'm paying you for!" An actual quote from one of my less than pleasant liner edit sessions. Or just tell Bouke you got two speeds and he doesn't want to see the slow one. Another favorite quote from my linear days. Or when the seasoned TD at the Barcelona Olympics turned to the know it all PA and said, "Son, I've spent more time in black than you've been in the business." Now that's one of my top ten.
