Re: [CGUYS] Final Cut vs. Premiere
I need to be able to burn DVD's from the program (like iDVD does). Does FCE not have this feature? & if not, can iDVD be used with FCE files? tia. When you finish your movie, save it as DV, or it can be a compressed .mov. I use Roxio Toast to burn DVDs. It can do video DVDs, including menus and scene selection--if you've added markers in the original. In the sidebar, choose Video --> DVD Video, and select Options at bottom for setup choices. Drag and drop the video onto the window and continue from there. Use any picture or photo for a background in the menu. You may have to read the help files for this, or ask the list.

Apple has 3 video applications for the Mac. iMovie, Final Cut Express, and Final Cut Pro, essentially small, medium, and large. You may find that the iLife suite, which contains both iMovie and GarageBand (a great tool for audio editing), is all you need. That would save you some money. As your interest and needs grow you can move up to FCE. If you move to Hollywood you can get FCP. * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?

Re: [CGUYS] Final Cut vs. Premiere
Can I get some feedback on which of these 2 people would recommend? I'm adding Videographer to my skill-sets (like I needed another one!). tia. Final Cut beats Premiere hands down. Its faster, has excellent tools and plugins, is more intuitive [if you can ever call such a complicated program intuitive]. I think the Premiere doesn't have a Mac version. Avid Cinema does. I've used all of those, but when I bought the software myself, I bought Final Cut Express. It does everything I need, including some high-end features and is a solid program. If you want to try the Avid software, there's a free demo version, but nothing is as good on the Mac as Final Cut, either version. For Windows consider Avid XPress. I never liked Premiere from the very first version to the last for the Mac, and I don't like the Windows version either. Try them all and make your choice. I think there are trial versions. You can look at Final Cut at an Apple Store.

Re: [CGUYS] Final Cut vs. Premiere
the new format on HD consumer video cams is AVCHD. does that influence the choice? my wife's new camera, which has not yet arrived, is in that format. She has a new iMac 2.4.

What would you be using this skil-set for? Is is basic editing or extensive post production? And it might depend upon which format computer you're using. What will be your material source?

Re: [CGUYS] Final Cut vs. Premiere
FCP is your only real choice if you're on a Mac. On the PC I'd recommend Sony's Vegas for most people. I've used Premiere and it's just... obtuse. And a steeper learning curve than Vegas (PC).
