![]() I got an error message about the file structure which is typical if the. This was the upgrade I needed….little did I know of the hell that was about to unfold….Īfter shooting the video with the Mark III, and completely wowing my client, I got home and tried to import the footage into Final Cut Pro 7 via the E1 plug in within Log & Transfer. The full frame, easy controls and video settings (minus Magic Lantern) and the picture quality spoiled me to the point where I no longer wanted to even look at my T2i. Although I had shot on the 5D Mark II before and couldn’t really notice any remarkable difference in quality compared to the T2i, I must say that with the Mark III I was blown away. A client of mine wanted his new video shot on the Canon 5D so I decided to rent one and try it out to see exactly how comparable the two were. I would always watch videos comparing the T2i and 5D Mark II and showing nearly similar results for video, under the right lighting conditions of course. Up until about a month ago I had shot all of my film projects on the Canon T2i, a camera that I have been very pleased with. Although support for FCP7 would soon come to a halt, I would take my chances and keep editing on it until the day where I was forced to make the change. ![]() So I decided to wait it out and keep using Final Cut Pro 7 until all of the may lay had been figured out and resolved. Needless to say, apart from taking the time to re-learn a new editing software in the midst of trying to finish a gazillion video projects, the new Final Cut Pro X suddenly did not interest me at all as I just didn’t see the benefit of making the change to the new software anytime soon…mostly because I create 50% of my “look” inside of Apple Color. But worse of all……NO APPLE COLOR COMPATIBILITY!!!!!!! WHAT? A “magnetic timeline” that feels like it was made for dummies and beginning editors. I just happened to start reading the reviews on it before hitting the purchase button…I was crushed. I remember that day logging onto the Apple App store for the first time ever, ready and willing to cough up $300 of my hard-earned cash for this new software and not thinking twice about it. The new design, the organization of shots/footage, and the ability to utilize more than 4GB Ram had me to the point where I was unable to sleep for months thinking about this new Final Cut Pro X (ok a little exaggerated). With FCPX I was very much wooed by the thought of not having to render along with the idea of my projects being edited that much faster. As an avid (no pun intended) Final Cut Pro Studio user who had grown a complicated love/hate relationship with the render bar, coupled with the fact that Final Cut Pro 7 only utilized 4GB RAM max. When Final Cut Pro X was announced by Apple back in June of 2012 I was ecstatic. The Canon 5D Mark III, Final Cut Pro X, and Transcoding Hell All Nighter can be found on C Plus’ Still Out Here mixtape which is available now at. Chase Moore and So Crates do an excellent and convincing job in their portrays of their characters, and we’re still sure that So Crates is still in a little bit of pain. ![]() In All NIghter C Plus must quickly learn how to deal with these threats, all while seeming totally cool and unnerved by the attempts on his life. Anyone who has seen the film Drive will quickly pick up on the loosely inspired plot and theme, to which Chase Moore and Hippie Sabotage superbly do the sample justice. In the video C Plus stars as the driver, who with his female accomplice, ends up going head to head with a mob boss (played by Chase Moore) and a hired hitman (played by So Crates) after a botched robbery plot. ![]() This video has to be one of my favorites so far in how the whole concept and look came together. Shot in the only a day and a half, one at first look probably wouldn’t be able to tell how much work went into the pre-production of this video but I will say that planning definitely pays off. With this video I had the freedom to creatively bring to life a hip hop influenced take on the film, with C Plus as the driver and the sexy Ciara Gorman as the co-star. All Nighter finds the Sacramento emcee C Plus linking up with Chase and the Hippies to bring you the perfect combination of solid production and dope lyricism, with the sample and visual treatment inspired by the movie Drive. ![]() Chase Moore and Hippie Sabotage are quickly becoming my favorite producers in the game. C Plus is one of my favorite upcoming artists on the scene. ![]()
