I am looking for London based only (FCPX) editors as I live in London and the footage is over 1TB of data.

A friend sent this to me, and I just have to share it with you! Using stills and textures from NASA and other sources, together with live action photography, this short film "recreates" humanity's expansion to other planets. Incredibly beautifully done! http://vimeo.com/108650530...

Very nice movie
So an editor I'm working w/ prepared some 1080 ProRes files for a distrib. The distrib wants a USB external drive formatted for both PC and mac.... Of course, I get the drive and of course it works on neither.... But of course it works on his system....
Because he didn't format to exFAT, correct????
Probably. Seems to be somewhat hit and miss based on what others have posted elsewhere. But some folks don't seem to have trouble with exfat. At least one of the Mac utilities to read NTFS calle Parag...

Hi everyone, I want to ask if any of you have some suggestions to make the best possible upres of a Betacam SP 30 fps interlaced tape to HD 1080p. I have the chance to release an old film originally shot in Super 16. Many thanks.
Can anyone in my network help out Gustavo Letelier ?
Adobe After Effects has a fantastic feature added called "Detail-Preserving Upscale". I use it a ton with my partnership with the Times Square Alliance. I have to take various digital artist's work, t...

The best possible conversion would be something like a Teranex. https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/teranex
Otherwise, you may want to learn ffmpeg. See Jan Ozer's training materials at:https://streaminglearningcenter.com
He has books and videos.

Helpful video hear on mixing dialogue with music. Always a pain, no matter how many times I do it: https://bit.ly/2Od6UA5
Is there anyone who could point me in the right direction for VFX opportunities?
Also check our Jobs section, too, Rob. We do get listings for VFX there.
I’m learning basics in Dublin this year, but only so I can tell a VFX pro what I want them to do on my own work. Its useful to know what “tools are out there” some filmmakers miss out on cool or spect...

Here’s a scene from a film where all sounds except dialogue were created in post to make the visible location come to life & immerse the viewer with sounds appropriate to the location & actions taking place. https://www.facebook.com/222754004814540/posts/492037091219562?sfns=mo...

OK, let's be real. Most people do drink coffee, and I'm in the market to buy a new coffee maker for my studio!
Bear with me, the reason I ask this question, is because I feel this topic can make a great ICE BREAKER for conversation, and I would love to hear back from you folks.
Thanks,
Lou
Hey Lou, if you're looking to host guests, I would always suggest a Nespresso or Keurig coffee maker. They're more professional than pouring out of a pot and they have environmentally friendly reusabl...
