Hi all,

Just to tell you that Mark Spencer have completed a video tutorial i originally invented I year ago (Optical Flow). I really appreciate Mark did this and it feels nice to get some recognition for all the hard work I am doing in regards to pushing Apple Motion as a software.

You can see the tutorial here. http://pixelcorps.cachefly.net/mbks_087_540p_h264.mov

Once again thank you Mark…

For all of you who have laptops this news will hopeful make you all very happy. The 2.5in drive coming soon in 250GB, 320GB and 500GB flavours, features traditional hard-disk platters that spin at 7,200rpm, a 32MB onboard cache and a SATA 3Gbps interface. The magic ingredient, however, is the addition of 4GB of quick SLC NAND Flash memory designed to store regularly-accessed files using Seagate’s own Adaptive Memory technology.

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.”

Many Thanks Ken

“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.”
