Ripple Training
DVD Edition $109.00
iTunes download version $99.00
Review by Ken Stone
With every major update to Final Cut Pro, there is always a flurry of tutorials to go with the update. However, not all tutorials are create equal. Some simply have ‘What’s New’ added, folding some new information to an existing tutorial or, in the case of books, one is sent to a web site where you get an ‘Addendum’. The new FCP 7 DVD tutorial from Ripple Training by Steve Martin was built from the ground up.
Thanks Ken
Digital Anarchy’s Beauty Box, review by Steve Douglas.
“Jim Tierney and Digital Anarchy have produced ‘Beauty Box’ for both Final Cut Pro and Adobe After Effects, which is a skin retouching software, which uses Face Detection to identify skin tones at the same time as it preserves important facial features.”

Dear All,
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy new 2010. We have gone a long way this year, we have pushed some boundaries and open some new frontiers.
I want to reassure you that I am still as dedicated as when I started embryo almost two years ago.
Please note I am preparing a bunch of tutorials in the background, some will be pay per download and some will be free. I am also hoping to release my first DVD product at the begging of 2010.
I also like to extend my thanks to Prisca who has been amazing in developing and making embryo what it is today.
Once again I wish you all lots of happiness and health in new 2010.
“This tutorial is divided into 20 chapters covering most all aspects of Compressor 3.5. Illustrating a more concise approach to teaching Compressor, Brian Gary and Ripple Training have kept most of these chapters to a fairly brief duration.”

“This article is for people who are new to Compressor, or people who need a refresher course, it’s a basic Compressor 3.5 article. We use Compressor to convert, or transcode our source video to different formats for editing purposes, and encode video to codecs like MPEG 2 for SD DVDs or H.264 for web distribution.”
