Just listened to this song. It's surprisingly good, considering how most reunions tend to go.

Wow. It's gonna take a week for me to wrap my head around this one. Brilliant stuff. Thanks again for doing what you do (which you do so well).

Merry Christmas!

Whoa! Okay, I think I'm going to have to watch this one a few dozen more times before I get the hang of it, but again, this is seriously useful stuff.

Glad to see you back, baby! I've missed these very useful tips. And this guy is DEFINITELY a super genius.

Thanks as always.

I'm loving it !!!

Hmmm...I always thought you worked in a lighthouse or something.

Sweet video Dave. You did great.

Stiles,

You did great, kid! I've seen people in this business come and go, but I gotta tell ya...

In all seriousness, that was great, and there was little sign of nervousness as far as I could tell. You seemed relaxed, confident and downright knowledgeable about what it is you do (not sure how you pulled the last part off). Congrats.

Dave, Even though you have spent 20 years in a dark room, you obviously have bloomed in a BIG way!
Seeing you in front of those computers leaves no doubt than you were born for this.
We are very proud of you!

Dave,

I actually have FCP 7 and I didn't realize you could do this. So, as always, thanks for the great, chuckle-filled info. I thought it was very funny, btw.

Yeah man, very handy and more so as you get more and more into AE. Glad you're back pal, it was getting lonely out here in the blogosphere without feedback, lol.

Hey kids wanted to give you an update on DropBox. I'm working on my first major project with it and have a folder that is 2 gigs in size with tons of files that is staying perfectly in sync between home and work. It's a total hands-off situation, I don't have to manually "sync" anything or remember to do anything myself. If I put a file in that folder before I left work, it's in that folder when I fire up my home system. Pretty awesome!

Unlike the many times you've regretted visiting me in person? Thanks for the support!

Thanks for this tip! I was wondering if you could do a color correction tutorial......i'm messing around with that at the moment.

Sweet! Nice to see you doing stuff for Creative Cow. They could use a guy like you. This stuff's seriously amazing, Dave. And I don't care if I'm the only one who thinks so. ;)

2010-05-15T18:59:39.148-04:00

Great. Thank you, wise one. That was driving me nuts but not enough to figure out how to fix it.

You must have looping playback turned on. Go to View>Loop Playback to toggle it off and on or press Control + L.

2010-05-13T22:11:45.438-04:00

Oh, Magoo, you've done it again! This is maybe the most useful tip yet. That always annoyed the hell out of me when I had to re-render. AND the color correction thingy as well . Who knew?

Sorry I didn't respond to this more quickly, but I was (don't laugh) editing someone's wedding. Ah, don't it bring back memories?

I wanted to ask you a FCP question. This is probably a real easy one that I just haven't figured out the answer to yet: How do you get a clip or sequence from automatically starting over at the beginning once the clip or sequence has ended? I want it to get to the end and stay there, dagnabbit!

2010-04-20T12:12:13.098-04:00

OK, this one's great if only for the viewer window thing alone. I hate it when that happens. This is a nice quick fix. Thanks again.

PS. Can I also order two Slap Chops please, or is this the wrong venue for that? Is it me or do those things actually look useful?
