Last week's webinar - Ask Larry Anything! - was interesting because we only had four questions to discuss. Which meant that I had more time to go into the answers than normal. We covered archiving and LTO technology, color correction in Final Cut, and video compression for social media. It was an interesting session.
No webinars this week, pending Apple's announcements. However, I expect next week's webinar to be very interesting indeed.
I have four tutorials for you this week: The first is how to fix color problems using Final Cut. FCP has amazing color tools for both grading and fixing problems. However, amazing tools are not enough, if you don't know how to use them. Here's an overview of how to use scopes to fix problems.
Recently, I purchased a pair of Yamaha HS5 powered monitor speakers. I like them a lot. Here's my review.
Last week, Wes sent me a question on how to work with proxy media in multicam clips in FCP. So, this week, I wrote a tutorial that discusses exactly that.
I've been a fan of LTO tape technology for a long time. In last week's webinar, I finally got a chance to talk about it - with recommendations on how it works, software to best utilize it and what you need to know before investing in a system.
Well, like many, I'm bringing extra popcorn to Apple's event later today. Looking forward to seeing what Apple announces, and especially if it can improve the lives of us media folks. I look forward to sharing what I learn.
In the meantime, stay safe, stay healthy and edit well.
