Wow! We've been busy. FOUR new articles, FIVE new webinars, and a BIG announcement this week!

I have articles on retouching video, creating an image montage, getting started with Adobe Story (which is VERY cool!), and creating a back-time edit. You can find all the details below.

We have five new webinars to announce this week - all looking at different aspects of Final Cut Pro X. Check out the sidebar on the left for all the details.

Thinking of webinars, last week's topic covered Adobe Story. This is a FREE web application which can help you script, collaborate, organize, and schedule your productions. Check out my demo on my store page for the webinar -- this is cool stuff and from now till April 12 Story is free!

Then, in April, the Buzz is back at the NAB 2012 Show for our fifth year of wall-to-wall coverage and special shows.  More on that in April!

Adobe Story is a scripting, collaboration, and planning tool to get you ready for production.

This video tutorial shows you how to get started using Story. The good news is that the web version of Story - story.adobe.com - is free until April 12.  Watch the tutorial and you'll see why this is such good news for producers.

For people new to FCP X, this is an introductory tutorial that shows you how to edit an image montage to music.

This article covers adding your music to the Timeline, creating markers, editing and trimming your video, and adding transitions.

Photoshop is legendary for image retouching. However, what you may not know is that the Extended version of Photoshop also retouches video!

This brief video tutorial shows you how to open a video clip in Photoshop, remove problems using cloning, and how to export your video ready to import into any version of Final Cut Pro.

Back-time edits are the life-blood of sports. A back-time edit edits based on the Out, not the In; perfect for when you care more about where the runner crosses the goal than where they started running.

This article was requested by a reader who was editing a sports highlights reel. FCP X makes this easy - but it is NOT intuitive. Read this article to learn how.
