Almost a week in – thoughts on Final Cut Pro X (FCPX)
It has been almost a week since FCPX was released and I thought you’d want to know some of my thoughts… I’m sure many of you won’t agree, but that’s ok – that’s what makes the world go around!
By the way, found this little tidbit on macrumors… (which is an excerpt of the original article on DVCreators.net) “iMovie ’08 Was Originally Called ‘First Cut’, Ubillos on Final Cut Pro X” Continue reading »
Larry Jordan: Apple’s Challenges
Since Apple launched Final Cut Pro X last Tuesday, I’ve had more than 3,500 emails that range from “I’m enjoying FCP X and creating useful projects,” to “FCP X will destroy my ability to make a living.” (And, ah, far worse, I’m sad to say.)
When I first saw Final Cut X, I was excited by its potential, but warned Apple that this release would be intensely polarizing to the editing community. It does not give me pleasure to see that I was right. Continue reading »
Richard Harrington’s Response to David Pogue’s “Professional Video Editors Weigh In on Final Cut Pro X”
Before I begin … let me say this.
- David Pogue is a fine gentleman who I have met several times. He is smart, he is generous in his knowledge, and he is fair. He is not a shill and his article was trying to be helpful (I commend him for getting Apple to answer questions).
- He is not a video editor. Nor does he try to pass himself off as one.
- I am sorry this response is SO long. It’s technical and it’s important I be clear and detailed (I’ve already been criticized and accused of being an Apple hater or colluding against them). Continue reading »

NLESystems Blog- FCPX – So Long and Thanks For All The Fish…I didn’t always use Final Cut Pro, and I didn’t start using it from version 1. I was a late convert. I started out using Avid Media Composer. But I did start using it after version 3 came out. Before that I, and many other editors, begged and pleaded with the companies we worked with […]
- FCP-X and the Pain of DemocratizationAvid editors looking for a bit of shameless gloating will enjoy the latest installment in Kanen (John) Flowers’ podcast “That Post Show” (iTunes). Dormant for some two years, the show has reappeared with a new episode featuring four longtime Final Cut editors talking about FCP-X — and they are not happy. In their view, […]
- Tej Babra: Hands on Review of FCPXBy now I am sure everyone has heard all the bad press, negative reviews and blogs on FCPX. I am sure you know what is missing out of FCPX, if you don’t then clearly you are extremely busy and did not even know FCPX was released, therefore kudos to you. Before I begin this review […]
- Transition 2: FCP Workflow in Adobe Premiere ProAs we transition from Final Cut Pro to another NLE, I’m running a series of tests to determine which NLE will best suit our needs. I got such a response from the first of our Transition series that I’m really glad to be able to bring you part 2. The biggest question I’m getting is […]
- Final Cut Pro X: Apple’s Worst Launch of Their Best AppFor the last few weeks, the Internet and popular TV alike have been abuzz with criticism over Apple’s new Final Cut Pro X. If you’ve not been keeping up with the hoopla, here’s a summary: A few months ago Apple showed off a “beta” of Final Cut Pro at a trade show, the world went […]

- What does the guy who led the original Final Cut Pro revolution think of the Final Cut Pro X release?Yes it did! In case anyone is interested in my take on the release of Final Cut Pro X, here it is. First, let me say this first article is just about the release, and not about the software itself. I promise that henceforth I will focus on the actual FCPX software and forget all […]
- What went wrong with Final Cut Pro XWe don’t use ink to express our opinions any more, which is a shame. If we did, I could start this out by talking about the ocean of ink that’s been spilled on Final Cut Pro X over the past couple of days, and how hardly a drop of it has been positive, and how […]
