In this ongoing discussion about FCPX Events we speak with Thomas Grove Carter. Thomas is a bit of a rockstar in the FCPX community. Known for his blazing fast edit demos at NAB he truly understands his edit platform of choice. Thomas starts his explanation of FCPX events saying they are like Folders with Benefits, what does he mean by that?

The Final Cut Pro X file structure is often complained about and rarely fully understood but one part is probably the MOST confusing and that is the Event. What is an event? How should it be used? In a white paper published recently by Apple, they described the event like this.

FCPX Media Management White Paper – https://images.apple.com/final-cut-pro/docs/Media_Management.pdf

“An event is similar to a folder that can hold clips and projects. You can easily copy or move clips and projects between events to organize them. An event might represent a day of shooting, an episode of a dramatic series, a location in a reality show, a portion of a wedding such as the reception or ceremony, or a series of edited projects.

Using an event as a “collection” that can be handed o to another editor or an assistant on the team is a good use of the library model. For example, an assistant editor can create an event for a day’s dailies and hand this over to the primary editor, and the editor can create an event containing the cuts for a scene or reel of a movie to hand back to the assistant. “

On this episode I’m talking with Scott Simmons from Nashville and we’ll hear how Scott uses Events in his daily workflow.

Kyno by Less Pain software. This is the utility that Scott mentions that he uses to keyword footage before he imports into FCPX.

Back for his third appearance on the show, my good friend Steve Miller and I discuss the new iMac Pro and more importantly what it means to the whole Apple Community. Steve gives some expert tips on monitoring how your computer is working and we revisit the eGPU world and hear Steves final word on the idea of attaching additional GPUs to your Mac. Also… is Steve switching to Windows?

“Festoon: In modern English the verb forms, especially “festooned with”, are often used very loosely or figuratively to mean having any type of fancy decoration or covering.”

10.4 Good Buddy! Do I really care about 360 video? Is this something I really need to be thinking about? Or is this just the next gimmick that is meant to make us buy new hardware and software. Alex Gollner, long time contributor to The Grill goes DEEEEP into the philosophy of 360 video and we explore some ways that we can turn this into a product that our clients are interested in.

To be fair, this episode is about OLDER versions of our software. Today, Carl Olson is a happy camper running current versions of FCPX and Mac OS. Don’t freak Apple, this is good information for anyone who uses computers, but yea, you guys probably wouldn’t post all this information publicly. But hey, we’re fans and this stuff has to be said. OK?
