NEW ARTICLES

This week, I have a new blog and three new articles for you.  Check them out below. And, as always, I look forward to your comments.
FIRST LOOK
Adobe Prelude CS6 

Adobe Prelude CS6 is designed for editors working with massive amounts of tapeless media -- because it allows one person to be reviewing and capturing media, while the editor is free to edit.

Read my First Look at Adobe Prelude article here.

BLOG
Sorenson Updates Squeeze to Version 8.5
Logo: Larry's Blog
At dawn this morning, Sorenson Media updated the venerable Squeeze to version 8.5.

I got an advanced briefing from Sorenson about their goals for this version - along with some speed tests released today by Jan Ozer at Streaming Media East.

FCP X TECHNIQUE
Seriously Fast Ways to Trim

If you are tired of working the razor blade, you need to read this article.

FCP X TECHNIQUE
Create a Gradient Wipe

This is a very organic, interesting effect that's been given a new name, home, and settings.

If you are looking for ways to create a compelling visual and just can't figure out Motion, check out this technique.

It's fast, easy, and even someone with limited design skills (um, that would be me!) can make this look great.
