Me and the homie Alex were talking about garbage mattes the other day, and he said something about the drawbacks of the 4 and 8 point garbage mattes in Final Cut Pro.  There is a 50 point garbage matte created by a guy named Tom Henderson, and it is available for free.  If you use it, let me know how it works out for you.

Free Textures from TextureKing

Dumbworld has been using Photoshop a lot lately,  so finding Free Textures from TextureKing was a blessing (via Layers Magazine).

I took a Motion class yesterday, and I am kind of embarrassed that I haven’t played around with Motion more. I learned how to do a number of motion graphics and visual effects that I had seen others do but never tried myself, although I had always had the tools at my fingertips.  Pitiful.

Also, half way through the class I figured out that the instructor was Mark Spencer, the author of this article that I linked to a couple of days ago.  Small world.  At the end of the class, I answered a question on Motion correctly (I guess it pays to pay attention) and won a copy of Mark’s book, Motion Graphics and Effects in Final Cut Studio 2.  No more excuses, I guess.

Also, Mark has a blog on Motion that you might want to check out.
