Monday brings more scene analysis! We watch three scenes: one from Fearless, one from Punch Drunk Love, and one from Mulholland Drive; all of them are specifically chosen not just for picture, but also for sound. The scene from Punch Drunk Love is one I remember especially well. Adam Sandler's character discovers a lone harmonium in the street. It sits in near silence.

Final Cut allows you to zoom into the picture of both the Canvas and Viewer. While this is very helpful for effects work, it is not a good idea for playback. Even with today's fast machines, Final Cut has problems playing clips smoothly especially HD clips when you have scroll bars displayed in either the Canvas or the Viewer.

He was vaguely aware of our agency's postproduction capabilities, and he had a small problem that he hoped we'd be able to solve.

End of Need Creative Blog

A year and a half ago or so I was bright-eyed and very excited about the Twitter-connected digitally-based indie filmmaker blogosphere. I even coined a phrase for it: "Digital Visualmaking", created a brand around it, and used that as a jumping point to try and network with like-minded creatives and to encourage them to shine. I did this as I was also spinning up a media creation business (Anticipate Media) and jumping feet first into filmmaking after some years of a break. It was exciting.

The ability to scroll vertically is built in, but that doesn't mean it's easy to find. There are multiple ways to scroll vertically in the Timeline in Final Cut Pro. Choose your favorite!

I decided to wait a few days before putting my thoughts down about the passing of Steve Jobs. So much has been written about this man by writers who are much more eloquent than I’ll ever be. But here goes…
