I'm NLE agnostic, but have worked in FCPX exclusively the past several months, including the conform of a 10k x 1200 installation at Sundance.
#APPLE FINAL CUT PRO X MAC#
Also, there is a large post-house in NYC that is also switching to FCPX on the Mac Pros after they've been blown away by it's performance during testing the last month. Januat 3:37PM, Edited September 4, 8:45AMįOCUS is the feature cutting in FCPX, as I've been told by someone who consulted on the project. Not perfect, not flawless, but widely and broadly easier and more enjoyable. The actual "magic" that X brings to the table is that once you truly have learned it well, is that most X editors feel that their work has become easier.
At the FCPWorks event in LA last weekend, the story over and over was the same.
#APPLE FINAL CUT PRO X MOVIE#
The wider feature world will continue to take notice (as with the widely discussed Will Smith movie in post right now) simply because the future is clearly tools that leverage pervasive metadata in modern and powerful ways. Those of us who've been diligently cutting with X for going on 3 years now pretty universally feel the workflow is so pleasurable that we don't really have any interest in moving backwards. The tipping point for FCP-X quietly passed by a while ago while the debaters were occupied elsewhere. Word of mouth is strong in the filmmaking community, so will this help FCP X's standing among Hollywood editors? Only time will tell, but if a major production like this proves the workflow for Final Cut X can be fast and efficient, it would be surprising if a studio pushed hard against a show wanting to use it. For example, if you're an FCP X user right now, and a production tells you that you need to be using something else for no other reason than they heard it wasn't any good, a studio picture making use of it may change their minds. Hollywood sets trends for certain things, but rightly or wrongly, they also legitimize all sorts of choices for equipment and software. Many of you I'm sure have already asked why this even matters - use what you have and can afford as long as it gets the job done.
Regardless, it is still a pretty significant Hollywood film. I can't seem to find anywhere mentioning the budget of the film, so it's unclear if it is actually $100 million or not. Some research done in the forums on FCP.co backs this up, and facts mentioned in the video match those of the film, including the shooting locations, the multiple directors, and the project having just finished shooting when this video was made. film Focus, directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, and starring Will Smith. So what's the movie in question? Neil seems to be referring to the Warner Bros.
