“ASK LARRY ANYTHING” AGENDA

This four-hour session is a free-wheeling discussion on all things Final Cut Studio. Have questions on Final Cur Pro 6? Bring ‘em. Soundtrack Pro? DVD Studio Pro? Final Cut Pro X?  Bring ‘em all.

This is a four-hour event where you can ask Larry anything and watch as he works through the answers.  (In fact, if you don’t bring questions, we’ll all just spend four hours staring at each other…)

Think of this as a personal consulting session – bring your problems and see if we can solve them together. Best of all, we are offering this session for ONLY $5!

Who This Seminar Is For

Anyone with questions on any version of Final Cut Studio software, or the new Final Cut Pro X. There are only 100 seats for this event — this will fill VERY quickly!

Here are three quick observations on technology for the coming year:

1. For 2011, camera technology will continue to change EXTREMELY quickly. This means that any camera you buy today will be out-of-date in less than 2 years. If you can’t make it pay off in that short a period of time, you are better off renting. I don’t see any incentive for camera technology to stabilize for another couple of years.

2. Apple will update Final Cut Studio in 2011 — probably early in 2011. Apple is not abandoning the platform. This is not the apocalypse. The world will not end. I’ll have more news on this when I’m allowed to talk about it.

3. The capabilities of your storage will become more important than the capabilities of your computer. And, as a corollary, tapeless media means that media asset management will become mission-critical for even small shops. Whichever company solves the puzzle of how to make asset management informationally-rich, while at the same time easy to access, will make a fortune. You can’t edit what you can’t find.

Bringing the Tips of the Editing Suite to the Middle of the Action.

The Post Pit, sponsored by NAB, brings together users and creators of the most savvy and dynamic post-production software available. Located right on the show floor, the Post Pit isn’t about products or vendors, its about getting work done. During the day, post-production geniuses take the stage to showcase their work and talk about how it was done, while at the end of the day, no matter your platform of choice, you can join together with fellow pros for a reception.

Thanks Larry Jordan!
