Also, yesterday the homie Seitu showed me a pretty cool app for Filmmakers. Movie Slate. A handy feature is that you can use it to import Final Cut XML.

Movie Slate is a digital slate, clapper board, shot log, and shot notepad— designed for use with film, television, documentaries, interviews, and home movies.

He calls himself a hip hop Charlie Rose, host 180 interviews Sacramento singers and rappers. He’s got it down, and like he says, “It needs to be done.”

Plug In for Professional Pan, Zoom and Slide Shows for Stills in Final Cut Pro

dumbworldorder — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 20:34:44 +0000

I had the opportunity to attend a Larry Jordan seminar last week, and Larry talked about a cool new plug in for Final Cut . Geethree’s SlickFX Photomotion is a video generator plug-in that allows you to do smooth pans and zooms over stills without keyframes. The coolest thing to me was the price (a $79 introductory price, which comes with Photomotion Producer, a slide show generator).

Zacuto Releases Consumer Grade Handgrip for Iphone 3Gs

dumbworldorder — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 10:06:56 +0000

A handgrip that helps you shoot stable video with your Iphone 3Gs. Novelty or really good idea? Unfortunately, I bought my Iphone and a month later, it was obsolete, so it will be some time before I know the joy of shooting video with an Iphone, but I vote for good idea. A good story is a good story whether you shoot it with the world’s most expensive camera or a camera phone.

The video above is for their “pro” version, Zgrip Iphone Pro. Their new ”consumer version” has a cheaper price ($69), Zgrip Iphone Jr. has many of the features of the “pro” version, minus some of the adjustability. If you pre-order before August 15, it is $59.

Final Cut Pro Templates

dumbworldorder — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 03:26:13 +0000

It looks like it is going to have to wait until I upgrade to Final Cut Studio 2 (Yes- it is time to finally step away from Final Cut Pro 5 and Motion 2), but I am definitely going to try out these Final Cut Pro (and Motion) templates.

For the price, they seem like a steal. I am curious to see if anybody else tried them out, and how they are working for you.

Free 50 Point Garbage Matte for Final Cut Pro

dumbworldorder — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 19:34:10 +0000

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.
