October Meeting

October 17th, 2008

This Mondays meeting will feature a show and tell with the camera de jour, the Sony EX-1 XDCam. We’ll go through its features and tapeless work flow, step by step, and see why this little camera is becoming increasingly popular with videographers and filmmakers. The demonstration will be conducted by Tim O’Grady, who has used the EX-1 many times, and although he wasn’t sure what he was doing half the time he still managed to make pretty pictures. So be sure to stop by and take a look at one of the best little cameras around.
See you there.

Fourth Meeting Set for Sept 15th

September 11th, 2008

With the long, hot days of summer behind us, the Tucson Final Cut User Group is once again gathering to network and share our combined expertise.

Rather than have a set speaker for the meeting, we would like to have an open Question & Answer period for the membership.  Each one of us likely knows a deep dark corner of FCP that has another member beating their head against the wall.  Come and share your knowledge and pick up a tip or two of your own.
