FCPX in a shared environment is a real thing, a VERY real thing. If you don’t believe it then you need to listen to Alexander Snelling. A little over a year ago Alexander released “The Document”, the definitive write up of how to share media in FCPX and work in a shared environment. This is an episode a long time in the making and we’re VERY happy to have Alexander join us on The Grill.

Dynamic Trimming redux. Sort of. Michael Towe is an old school editor with ties back to early avid and we talk briefly about the trimming of FCPX and Avid but we also go into may workflow preferences like Keywords vs. Favorites, the beauty of the magnetic timeline when it comes to revisions, Time Remapping and Auditions and how Michael used them in recent productions. There is a bit of “old man history” at the beginning of this episode but bear with it, You’ll get to the good stuff if you don’t care about the past.

Motion is a powerful gfx creation tool for FCPX but some of the real power is available for $50 bucks a pop through Motion VFX. Szymon Masiak, talks about his company and the type of attention to detail that they put into all their Motion templates and just how easy it is to apply them and use them from within Final Cut Pro. We’ll also go into a rather controversial topic that hit Motion VFX a couple years about about content copywriter and plagiarism that is very interesting. Make sure you check out MotionVFX.com

Logic X seems to potentially be a great tool for audio sweetening in FCPX and audio for video is always a topic for discussion. On this episode we hear how Sam Mestman, a recurring guest on The Grill, took a simple task of producing a podcast under his wing to learn a new tool to add to his post production arsenal.

Pirates Passages is a feature length animated film that was completed by PIP Animation Services. Paul Neumann was a technical advisor and responsible for training all the relevant people in the inner workings of FCPX for the entire workflow for the film, from the earliest animates thru the final assembly. Hear what worked great, and what worked, ok in this episode of The Grill.

Looking back on 2014 Ben Consoli and I touch on many topics. Hard drive tech and performance, Motion Graphics and tracking technology, Viral Marketing and we touched on the work of Tony Zhou. So much was discussed and covered in this freeform end of the year meltdown. Happy New Year from DCC and FCPX Grill!

14 Editors all moving to FCPX at once? Good idea or not? Ben Brodbeck, who works for a large company in Illinios (he’s not allowed to say which one) has been pushing to have their internal video department make the switch to FCPX and it looks like come January 2015, he’s gonna get his wish. In this episode we discuss the pros and cons and what Ben did in order to help switch peoples minds and make them take another look at Final Cut Pro X.

In addition to all this we also take a giant detour through the world of Media Asset Management (MAM) and discuss some workflow ideas that may help GREATLY reduce the amount of storage that this company has to budget for.

The Proxy workflow in FCPX is pretty amazing. If you don’t use it, you may want to look into it. If you do use the Proxy workflow I promise you’ll learn something about it in this episode that you didn’t realize. Ron Dawson of daydreamermag.com and an alum of this show (FCG011) comes back to explain a very interesting problem that he came across in the Proxy workflow that is a part of FCPX and offers up a bit of a work around that he came across.

Instagram and 4K don’t often get mentioned in the same breath so when Joseph Linaschke of thephotosexpert.com (formally Apeture Expert) told me he was shooting an Instagram promo video in 4K I had to hear more. Its a facinating exploration into resolution, and workflow and a whole lot of Mac stuff.

Even Photographers are trying to figure out what video editing program they want to use. My friend Frederick Van Johnson of This Week in Photo contacted me recently to ask the question, “FCPX or Premiere Pro”… wanna guess what I told him. This conversation is a result of a handful of eMails one day and discusses some beginners questions regarding FCPX.
