The Sony Vegas Pro Production Assistant
You will save time and money with Production Assistant
Jeffrey P. Fisher
As editors we are always looking for ways to be more efficient so we can focus on what we do best: telling stories with sound and visuals. But let's face it, there are a lot of mundane and routine tasks when editing that swallow our time but don't call upon our collective creative inspiration.
Sony Vegas Pro 9
Sony delivers a robust version 9 of its flagship NLE Sony Vegas with support for 4k video, including Red One, new UI
Jeffrey P. Fisher
When a software program matures into its ninth iteration, you expect big things from it. I've been on-board Sony Vegas when it was an audio-only, version one application. It's been really interesting to be a part of the software's growth. As my go-to app for many years, I was excited to give the newest version a test drive. This review looks at Sony Vegas Pro 9.0b 32-bit (VP9), the second (free!) update since its release at NAB earlier this year.
Final Cut Studio's Motion 4
With all the new features in Motion (and across the the whole studio), $299 is a very affordable upgrade price
Kevin McAuliffe
Star Wars Episode 1 and Apple's new Final Cut Studio have something in common, and that is the hype. Final Cut Studio has been hyped for more than a year, and every time someone blogged about its release coming up, nothing happened. Well, mid-way through July, Apple snuck Final Cut Studio (not called 3, just Final Cut Studio) onto its website, and needless to say, the tidal wave began.

Shooters Post & Transfer Creates 'Defining Moments' For MASN
Company Develops Unique Virtual Set For Comprehensive Campaign
none
Shooters Post & Transfer, the full-service creative post house, stepped up big-time for MASN, (Mid-Atlantic Sports Network), the Baltimore, MD-based regional sports network owned jointly by the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals, handling the production with a cast of real fans, and the complex post production that centered on creating intricate 3D virtual sets that evoked the iconic look of Camden Yards and Nationals Park -- the home stadiums for Orioles and Nationals respectively. The 20-spot branding campaign was created by the Washington, DC-based agency Rosenthal Partners, and directed by Peter Churchman of Churchman Productions, Ardmore, PA.
Explosion Robinson Scores Show Open for VH1's New Reality Series 'The T.O. Show'
Music/Sound Design Highlight Two Sides of NFL Star Terrell Owens' Personality
none
NFL star receiver Terrell Owens has two sides: good-natured, happy-go-lucky Terrell and the cocky, brash superstar who prefers to go simply by his initials T.O. Both personalities are on view in VH1's new reality series The T.O. Show, and thanks to Explosion Robinson, the custom music and sound design shop founded by Stephen Hermann, you hear them equally well in the show's open.
Building a Better Mouse: Contour Design RollerMouse Free
Using the RollerMouse Free with Sony Vegas Pro and Sony Sound Forge for video and audio editing
Jeffrey P. Fisher
Like me, you've probably been mousing around for some time. You may have even tried some mouse alternatives, such as tablets, trackballs, and their ilk. But, eventually you found yourself back with the mouse in hand. I know, it's not an easy habit to break. But now there is an alternative that is well worth considering: the Contour Design RollerMouse Free.
Apple Compressor 3.5
Apple has done a lot of work underneath the hood to help bring a more powerful encoder for us, the Final Cut Pro editors
Heath McKnight
With the long-anticipated update to Final Cut Studio, Apple has introduced an upgrade to Compressor. Not a full new version, but still a significant update, nonetheless. However, you need to consider that while Compressor is a stand-alone application, it's now a major part of Final Cut Pro 7, and that is where its strengths lie.
