In reply to: Smiley Katz posted an update in the group Final Cut Pro: a small little tutorial on using the ”3 Way Color Corrector” filter in FCP, especially if you somehow forgot to white balance. http://vimeo.com/17371680 Viewfabulous tutorial, Katz! I use the 3-way color corrector a lot and this was a great way to white-balance — thanks!

The Looping example is lovely, but it’s hard to carry out without looking at the process step by step. I’m trying to memorize all the steps so I can do a similar animation without referring to the example in the tutorial. That’s what takes me time to learn.

Apple Motion: 2 years, 5 months agoI’ve been struggling with Motion a bit. I have the DVD but there are too many items to click on — it’s going to be a long learning curve. The light at the end of the tunnel looks dramatic though.

Cinematography: 2 years, 5 months agoI use a Sony Z1U DVD camera. I shoot in 1080i 60i mode. I find this setting gives me a smooth image when I export to DVD. I shot THE RED QUEEN using this setting. I was amazed at the results. THE RED QUEEN is a creative documentary compiled from footage I shot over a period of two years around the subject of rock-n-roll and dance. It’s on imdb and Amazon.

DVD Authoring/Replication: 2 years, 5 months agoI use DVD SP with my FCP 5.04. I make DVDs with no menu — i.e., they play when inserted. I’d love to learn how to put one or two buttons on a menu, so I can have a feature film with a trailer and the full feature on two different buttons. I don’t want music playing or any artwork showing — just two buttons for viewers to click on.

Recently I’ve been experimenting with CineFrame 30 to see if I can get better progressive footage for the Internet.

cinematography: 2 years, 8 months agoI did a test with my Sony HVR Z1U and its CineFrame 30 feature, to see if I could output a progressive 30 fps clip without jagging or artifacts.

Final Cut Pro: 2 years, 9 months agoI went and trashed the fxfactory plugins and the dmg and now it appears that I didn’t do this right. I had to uninstall the program before deleting it, or I guess everything would be deleted by itself. But I thought this is how things are done in the PC world. I thought with Apple [...]

When I click on the folder I’ve downloaded, it shows this file: FxFactoryFreebies.fxpack.zip
I know how to install plugins into FCP Library folder, but this is different. Thanks for the help.

Hi Vic, you have the Motion PowerStart DVD?
Yes, Josh. The Looping example is lovely, but it’s hard to carry out without looking at the process step by step. I’m trying to memorize all the steps so I can do a similar animation without referring to the example in the tutorial. That’s what takes me time to learn.
