Frederick Van won't forget.

Tutorial - Video Handles and PSD files

Frederick Van Johnson asked me why he couldn't cross dissolve to his titles... it actually took me a bit to figure out why it was a problem because I normally don't bring Photoshop documents into FCP... I know you can, I know WHY people do it, I just choose not to participate. Anyway, here is an explanation of video handles and why you DON'T want to use PSD docs in Final Cut, or at least, if you do, know what you are getting into.

Oh wow... this is beautiful. Amazing work from Hurlbut Visuals. I find this amazingly compelling to watch.

Photography-ing is HARD...

Packing for the TWiP Joshua Tree trip tomorrow. Between Beth and I we have 2 tripods,3 bodies, 3 chargers 5 lenses, and 10 batteries... oh, and one steadicam... (yea, I'm shooting video). This is what I would call a "first world problem".
