Re: What does FCPX teach new editors?

[Herb Sevush] "Or, to reverse our analogy, as one-man-shop video pros who don't have to deal with broadcast or films."

So if one is a small shop that does local cable spots and digital signage and some of those things might be used in theater based advertising? So I guess I acknowledge I'm an FCPX target taxi driver and my clients might even want to work in 4K given theater is amongst the media buy (and I do the media buys too sometimes as a small ad agency).

So if you mean episodic TV and feature films only you're talking about a very small market. In fact there are many large facilities that may focus on corporate video as their main source of revenue.

So if FCPX hits that vast "middle" (these people are decidedly not "prosumer" in the derogatory use of the term) then it really would be a great and widely used professional NLE. And if the third party support flocks to it for that reason it might creep up the food chain . . . as FCP legacy did.
