to mac or not to mac
I've been debating the Mac lately. I really want to get my hands on Final Cut Pro and Apple's Motion product. I suppose it doesn't make sense to buy a pc just for 2 apps you'll just play with a bit and then move on to the next thing. But still I can't help but wonder.. yes.. a mac.. then you price it out and realize, what the hell am i thinking?!?! I need to spend that kinda cash on something else first...
Anyways so I'm looking at video production apps lately... i got the itch to produce this month. Avid just released a new version of its Avid Free DV reccently, if you want a free digital video app, thats a nice way to get started.
I've ordered the latest update on Serious Magic's Visual Communicator 2... that should be here soon. And hopefully after that and a much needed light kit, we'll be good to go on more Talkin Crap episodes.
I kinda wanna play with Poser as well. In fact I should just get that its been nippin at me for awhile now. Its a good app to pair up with Xfrog.
Then theres the FlowPod I've been pondering about. Its like a poormans steadycam. I'd just like for once to have some video that was nice and steady and smoooooooooth to play with. We'll see. We will see.
