do you think its worth it?
i might get it...
it's really nice and has a whole lot of bells and wistles. i think it all depends on what kind of person you are. meaning that if youre organized this program will work alot faster and more efficiently for you. But if youre like me, unorganized, i have my video clips scattered everywhere and final cut pro doesnt make a difference.
there was one thing i learned the other day that opened up a whole lot of creative possibilities. if youre familiar with photoshop then you know that there can be separate layers to copose youre whole image. you can load these images into final cut with the information of the layers still there. an example of what you could do with this is that you could make what looks like a moving image by moving the separate layers around in final cut. or what i was thinking of was that you could save your images on photoshop with holes in them and in those holes you could add whatever video you want. so you could pretty much do some semi green/blue screen kind of stuff but with still images.
its way overpriced though.
right now, i'm looking at the roland motion dive. that thing looks too dope.
