My first reaction is WOW!! They've really put some thought into streamlining an editors job. While I am impressed I do have more questions that I hope will be answered in the coming days.
In the meantime you can watch most of the presentation via the videos below or just skim back through the live blog from the event.
Info right now is that Final Cut Pro X will be available through the Mac App Store for $299 in June.
When Christian principles become socially unacceptable and society moves to repress them, what will the Christians do? Witness the Soviet Union—before glasnost. Fear of the KGB pervades society. Christian faith is stifled wherever it is discovered.
Most believers cling to a hollow shell of Christianity tolerated in "registered" churches. However, some believers opt to remain "unregistered," worshipping God openly and accepting the consequences. A brave few dare to print Bibles—right under the noses of the KGB. This story is about them.

Well the honest truth is, there is no ONE layout that is the most efficient for FCP. In my case, I use up to a dozen different interfaces depending on the task at hand. I’ll literally switch layouts over the course of the day depending on what I’m doing.
Here’s a few examples to get you guys started thinking on using your layouts more efficiently…..
Now first off, I’m on a 27″ iMac for these images since it’s useless to try to grab screen grabs of dual monitors, but you get the gist. So here’s your Standard View. Not bad but gives you too much room for everything.
Now here’s what I call Full Screen Timeline. Typically the Viewer / Canvas and Browser is on my left screen and the entire right screen is only the timeline. Notice how large I can make the timeline and how easy it is to go in and tweak edit points, transitions, audio fades, etc….. I use this layout a lot after I’ve done the rough cut and I’m starting to massage the timeline. I also use this for all final mastering working before it goes to tape or digital file.
The basic Text Tool in Final Cut Pro is very weak so why limit yourself to that one tool?
In this quick Final Cut Pro tip, Walter Biscardi, Jr shows you where to find a much better font tool.

Last week I was in Missouri doing some video work with Defining Moment for the 20th Annual National Christian HomeSchool Basketball Championship (NCHBC).
It was a full week of shooting games, editing games and trying to keep up! Here is a video of some the footage I shot highlighting the best dunks from the Wednesday night Dunk Contest!
Saturday night was the final "Gold Ball Showdown" and it was really quite the game...all the way to the end! I got to shoot the game from the "nose-bleed press platform" ...very impressive angle I must say! Check out the video below to see the final seconds of the game.
"The Boy’s Varsity Gold Ball Showdown featured the Four Time Undisputed National Champion and 2011 New School Gold Ball National Champions the HCYA Warriors and the 2011 Old School Gold Ball National Champions the Dallas HSAA Blue Angels. HSAA fought back to within one point trailing 56-55 with less than twenty seconds to go. The Blue Angels created a turnover and the video below is the most memorable 16 seconds in NCHBC history."
Son of British Chieftain Justinian the Pendragon, young Artos has grown up in a quiet coastal village. Justinian entrusts the boy with a vision – to defend the people God has trusted them with.
The first independent Christian film of its kind, Burns Family Studios presents an epic adventure set in Britain’s Dark Ages. With riveting action, stunning visuals, and a powerful score, Pendragon’s message of faith, courage, and vision is sure to inspire your family for generations to come.
