Re: Throwing out the Kool Aid

Don,

As a fellow southerner, from New Orleans myself, I can identify with the topics of your films, but I'm completely mystified by your continued hardware wars with your FCP system.

After switching over from Discreet Edit*, which our mutual friend Larry touted for so long, I have had nothing but great times with my FCP system. I just wish I could find a woman as reliable... There are certainly some things that could be improved or made more elegant inside FCP, but I gotta say, as far as keeping the darned thing working, its really never skipped a beat in over two years.

BTW, my work is mostly longform likje your own... I've cut a 90-minute documentary feature in 10-bit uncompressed and half hours in DVCProHD without a hitch.

So, something is wrong at your shop, and whatever it is, it is fixable. You really should bite the bullet and get it fixed, because filmmaking is simply too important for all the crap you're going through.

Contact me and I'll either fix it myself or turn you on to someone else who can do the job. Just do it...

David
