Ironically, the feature that causes the most consternation for editors is the one feature that I believe makes it stand head and shoulders above the rest. Well, I want to share with you the top ten reasons that I believe should put that belief to rest. Then again, there are those who don’t use it because they have bought into the false notion that Final Cut Pro X is not a “professional” NLE. there was no upgrade path from version 7 and the legacy version was “End of Life’d” at the same time that Final Cut Pro X was released), that many editors today refuse to use it on principle. So angry they were at extreme changes Final Cut Pro had undergone, and the way in which the transition was handled (e.g. I’ve read comments on sub-Reddits where editors have admitted as much. It’s just “iMovie Pro” some still say.īelieve it or not, some people still poo-poo the NLE not necessarily because they think it’s not capable, but because they are still hurt. To this day, ten years later, I still read comments from editors who claim Final Cut Pro X is not for professionals. However, hop on any sub-Reddit, Facebook group, or any other forum for professional editors, and you wouldn’t necessarily know it.
As any professional editor who uses the program will tell you, the “legacy” version of the software pales in comparison to the power and speed of Final Cut Pro X. I can’t help but wonder if the engineers over at Apple didn’t have this phrase in mind when they took to rebuilding Final Cut Pro from scratch. The famous late 70s TV show “The Six Million Dollar Man” had a famous line from its opening credit sequence: Nothing could have been further from the truth. And perhaps the greatest change of all was that magnetic timeline.Īfter nearly a decade of slowly becoming a formidable competitor in the NLE space, this new version seemed like it was some kind of tacit announcement that Apple was abandoning the professional market. Key collections replaced “Bins.” Tracks were completely eliminated. On top of that, it adopted an entirely new paradigm for how it worked. Many of the core features that were popular and used frequently in Final Cut Pro 7 were not in Final Cut Pro X when it released. Color correction, including secondary corrections and isolated color adjustments Īn accompanying eResource features downloadable Final Cut Pro X project libraries for the tutorials discussed in the book, offering readers hands-on examples of the techniques and practices covered.As promising as the announcement was, two months later when the new version was released, perhaps not even Apple could have predicted the blowback.Editing techniques for projects of various lengths and types.Media organization and metadata customization for different genres.This full-color workshop features tutorials that provide firsthand experience on the art and technique of editing at an advanced level with Final Cut Pro X, as well as in-depth information and time-saving tips that will allow you to master the application's interface elements, tools, and nuances. Explained in jargon-free language by a seasoned teacher and digital editor, Tom Wolsky’s text has been fully updated to address the new Final Cut Pro X 10.3 interface and changes to the software.
