Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Most popular editing software

 

I understand that writting from an @mac.com cannot have a simple editor experience opinion.
The experience from the people I know that work with FCPX, it's that they edit shorts projects, like Music clips or tv advertise, and love the tool for that kind of projects. 
I don't know anyone that try to move a 4 hour timeline with 60hours of footage with FCPX. I would like to hear if it moves smooth, what's the experience of the magnetic timeline with that, etc.

Yup.  Almost all my short form work has gone there, and it works really really well for me ("little guy/one man band").  I see a lot of young graduate students learning X very quickly or dumping Premiere and going to X.  To these guys, Final Cut Pro is X, not Legacy.  Another reason I just deleted all FCP-Legacy from 21 edit systems.  No one coming in knows about Legacy.  They know about X.   
How does Avid get these folks to consider MC? The fact that "Honey Boo-Boo" was cut on Avid (as an example.  I have no idea what HBB was cut on) is not going to make these kids jump up and down.  Neither is the fact that NBC News cuts it's stories and promo's on it.  Tell them "why".  The answer to that question is over my pay grade.
Apple didn't create X for old bastards like me.  It has the cash to wait us out.  I think we are just starting to see why and how Apple created X.
