DC Metro FCP UG

Have you ever had a project where things went pretty well (or even very well), until at some point (post-production anyone?…) problems arose that threatened your deadline, jeopardized your budget and frayed your nerves? Well, then, have we got a seminar for you!

The speakers at November’s Wednesday One, Jason Osder and Robbie Carman, wrote the book on workflows, literally, and they will reveal tips and tricks, specifically for producers, to help you save time and money and, perhaps as importantly, prevent the aggravation that at times accompanies our projects, often in post.

Through case studies, they will demonstrate how a few key principles can make, or break, your next project, if not your business. Jason Osder and Robbie Carman are the authors of “Final Cut Pro Workflows, The Independent Studio Handbook” that rates five stars on Amazon.com

One Amazon reviewer says: “This book should be marketed differently. I (hesitantly) picked it up expecting a very software specific how to book and what I got was a guide to creating and maintaining a successful post production firm. [...] THIS BOOK HAS CHANGED EVERYTHING. The amount of money that this book has saved me is starting to stretch into the thousands.”

Some knowledge of editing software (such as FCP, Avid or Premier Pro) is helpful, but not mandatory, as this seminar is geared to producers and production managers/coordinators.
