  • Adobe Premiere Pro User Tries Final Cut Pro for the First Time Ever

    Well, it has been a slow January for news (that we can publish) so we thought we would post this video that we came across on our YouTube explorations. Don't shout at the screen!

  • Codecs, Codecs, Codecs - The Past, Present and the Future

    Yes, this is a site about Final Cut Pro, but we love new things, especially when they are inspired by Final Cut Pro X itself. So let's fire up the new Adobe Rush and give it go.

  • Randy Ubillos - Back to the Beginnings of Final Cut Pro at the 18th Anniversary LACPUG

    It's quite simple. Stop what you are doing, make a large coffee and watch these two videos. Never before has Randy Ubillos, the creator of the original Final Cut Pro and FCPX, gone into so much detail about the history of NLE software development. We publish the two part recording of Randy's chat with Michael Horton at the recent LACPUG 18th birthday anniversary meeting.

  • What It Took for One Adobe Premiere User to Switch to Final Cut Pro X

    Has the tide turned? It seems more and more are discovering that FCPX is really the fastest and best way to get content ingested, edited and outputted. YouTuber Levi Allen AKA Leftcoast gave himself 24 hours to make the switch. Why did he change NLEs? His video tells all.

  • Summing up the State of NLEs in the Industry

    Want to know more about the state of each of the NLEs in the industry? This forty minute panel discussion with some of the top industry commentators is well worth a watch. 

  • Can You Be Good at Video Editing with More Than One NLE?

    Not just being able to operate another NLE, but be good at it, able to sit next to a paying client working under time pressure. Is theres a lot of common ground? On the 25th anniversary of Adobe's Premiere launch, are NLE’s all becoming the same or are they getting more specialised?

  • Final Cut Pro X for Adobe Premiere Pro Editors Part 2

    Continuing our look at Final Cut Pro X for Premiere editors, Chris Roberts takes a look at the different editing techniques you can employ. There are some big changes and Chris gives you the information you need to know to get up to speed.

  • Final Cut Pro X for Adobe Premiere Pro Editors Part 1

    Here at FCP.co, we are all too familiar with the advantages of a Final Cut Pro X workflow. But, as FCP X becomes more widely used throughout the production industry, we thought we’d dedicate a little space to helping those familiar with other NLEs get to grips with our favourite editing platform. We asked Chris Roberts (who’s both an Apple Certified Trainer and Adobe Certified Instructor) to help Premiere Pro editors draw parallels with FCP X.

    automatic duck fcpx

    Wes Plate from Automatic Duck presented his new product Ximport AE at the recent Los Angeles Creative Pro User Group. Wes showed the audience how to get FCPX timelines into After Effects and also recounts some great NLE history. Well worth a watch with your morning latte for half an hour!

  • Final Cut Pro X v Adobe Premiere Pro render and export speed tests

    fcpx v Adobe Premiere Pro

    Final Cut Pro X's speed and thus the benefits are gradually becoming recognised by editors in the industry. So on a new Retina MacBook Pro, how does Adobe's Premiere Pro match up to FCPX's performance, especially with 4K? Badly as Max Yuryev found out in his video. We are looking forward to the comments about this one!

  • Adobe release the 2015 update to Creative Cloud

    adobe cc update 2015

    Yes, we are a site about Final Cut Pro, but it doesn't do any harm to look at other NLEs out there. Especially when an update comes out with new features.

  • Looking at the NLE trends on Google - which one gets the most searches?

    nle google trends

    Google can be a very clever tool, especially when it comes to comparing statistics. We wanted to find out which non linear editor got the most web and YouTube searches.

  • PBS survey shows more people using Final Cut Pro than all the NLEs put together

    PBS survey FCPX

    When we saw this PBS survery over the weekend, we were very pleased to see how Final Cut Pro dominated the post production section. We were even happier when we saw that we could embed it here on FCP.co.

  • Time to change your Adobe password - They have been hacked

    adobe hacked

    Bad news all round. It looks like Adobe have been the victim of a rather nasty attack. Time to change your Adobe password PDQ.

  • Larry Jordan will tell us at The SuperMeet if Final Cut Pro X is ready for professional use

    Larry jordan fcp 10 0 3

    Possibly a rhetorical question, but it is good to see Final Cut Pro X taking the stage again at the SuperMeet. Don't forget we still have an offer of five Euros off the admission price.

  • Speculation about NAB 2013 and the video industry from the Editor's Lounge

    editors lounge

    It's the night before NAB which gives us the perfect reason to show these videos from the recent Editor's Lounge Pre-NAB Discussion Panel. Lots of speculation across the board and NLE manufacturers, comments include 'Avid is 'stodgy' and 'FCPX will win the race.' Interesting.

  • Adobe release Photoshop Touch for iPhones and Android

    photoshop touch phone2

    And you thought your first $4.99 spend of today would be a sandwich at lunchtime! Possibly not as everybody in the FCP.co office this morning has been busy downloading the new Photoshop Touch app onto their phones. It's going to be popular.

  • Tiffen update their digital filter suite Dfx v3 for Final Cut Pro X and Motion 5

    tiffen_FCPX

    pro-versioner_fcpx

  • MOTU display their HDX-SDI with Thunderbolt running with FCPX

    motu_nab_FCPX_thunderbolt2

  • Adobe showcase Premiere Pro CS6 new GUI, new features and it looks very familiar!

    adobe_premiere_cs6

  • Adobe asked Apple to shut down Final Cut

    timeline_book_final_cut_pro_fcp

  • CoreMelt upgrade their plugins for FCPX and lower the price

    coremelt_plugins_fcpx

    AJA_IOXT

  • Foolcut: The FCPX to After Effects AppleScript in action

    foolcut_fcpx_to_after_effects

    We first saw this a few days ago and to be honest were slightly put off by the sparse website. There is nothing like a fresh demo to prove a point and here the author shows off the script exporting RED material out of Final Cut Pro X and into After Effects.

  • Wacom Inkling - Transferring sketches into digital files

    wacom_inkling

    You may ask "What has Inkling got to do with Final Cut Pro?" Well not a lot, but it is so cool we thought we would have to mention this new product from Wacom.

  • Photoshop tutorial: Creating custom vignettes to highlight the subject matter

    vignettes_photoshop

    A breath of fresh air after so much negativity over the last few days about a certain new piece of software. We had so many people viewing the last Photoshop tutorial by Sean Armenta from FStoppers, we thought we'd post this follow up.

  • Win a copy of the new iPhone app Editmote. Control FCP, Avid, Premiere or QuickTime from the couch!

    editmote_iphone

    ***Updated with winners***

    You are probably familiar with Digital Rebellion's other products such as the excellent FCS Maintenance Pack and Cut Notes for the iPad. Their latest product is Editmote, a remote controller for FCP, Avid, Premiere or the QuickTime player for Mac. They've also given us two copies to give away.

  • An interview with editor Agustín Rexach. Good advice on working with clients and managing edit sessions

    Agustin_Rexach_interview

    So you can work the kit, but can you work with clients? Having many years of facility editing under our belts, we would say they are both just as important. Many editors can do the former, not everyone can do the latter.

  • Adobe upgrade to CS5.5

    Adobe_CS5.5

    A nice update. Adobe even admit to borrowing a few features from other NLE's. Get a tour of the new features of Premiere and the other apps with a 43 minute demo video after the break. 

  • Probably the best Photoshop tutorial in the world (ever!)

    OK, maybe the title is a bit over the top but if you've ever had to do cutouts for motion graphics you will love this refined extraction process in Photoshop CS5.

  • The Adobe team talk about taking Photoshop from Carbon to Cocoa. Exactly what the FCP folks are doing right now

    We thought this was interesting as it parallels Final Cut Pro's transition from the 32 bit Carbon API into the 64 bit world of Cocoa. Now why can't the Apple team make a video like this?

  • New budget range of FCP dedicated keyboards released. Special offer

    editors_keys
