Hmm

Final Cut came out with a new version today, which is $299 and downloadable (that for the whole shebang as far as I can tell, not for an upgrade). I watched the video and while it can do some new things, a lot of the things they were advertising are... things Final Cut has been able to do all along? I mean, I guess they're primarily advertising to new users. But it makes me wonder, did they change how you do those things? If I buy this, will I have to relearn how to do things I know how to do? Are my keystrokes still the same? *Can* you still be a keystroke editor or is it suddenly all about the fucking visual pretty "magnetic" interface*?

Hmph. Gerroff my lawn.

*Snap, it was called snap, you toggled it on and off with the n-key.

I'm actually taking a class in Final Cut as we speak, and the professor has promised a rundown when the new one comes out. Want me to tell you about it once she does?

I may be getting a Mac soon and... transitioning from Premiere to Final Cut. Meep?
