Been learning FCP for about a week now and I'm finally starting to get the hang of it. I've edited 3 interviews and put them up and now I'm re-rendering MPGs that wouldn't play properly for Angel's members that her old video guy did for her.
Still making lots of mistakes but getting better with each one. I've never done any kind of video stuff before and didn't even know what was meant by non square pixels. This makes using learning Photoshop look like nothing. Angel stopped by and said my computer screens looked like something at a doctors office.
I just figured out what I was doing wrong with aspect ratios and realized this was the reason renders were taking hours instead of fifteen minutes. Still rendering is pretty boring and it makes my computer run slow while it is doing it so doing something else like reading the boards feels like swimming under water.
I am really looking forward to getting better at this and shooting new vids.
