2005: THE YEAR OF HD VIDEO EDITING 

Apple Computer Inc. CEO Steve Jobs, in his keynote address at the Macworld Conference & Expo in San Francisco, said "2005 is going to be the year of high-definition video" according to MacCentral.

As per the Macworld site: "Jobs introduced Final Cut Express HD, a new High Definition version of Apple's mid-range prosumer/professional digital video editing capabilities. It adds LiveType for animated titling, Soundtrack for creating custom music soundtracks, integration with iMovie files, and project integration with Motion. Available in February, 2005, Final Cut Express HD will still cost $299.

"Sony President Kunitake Ando took the keynote stage after Jobs lauded Sony's new $3,499 HDV camcorder. He got laughs from the crowd after he noted that Jobs likes Sony products, but not all Sony products -- a sly reference to Sony's Connect music service, a direct competitor of Apple's iTunes Music Store.

"iMovie, the consumer-grade video editing application included with iLife, also gets the HD treatment."

Shrink & Tether - Encoding A Better Way in the New Stone Age

Santa Monica, CA – April 15, 2007 Cleanup Crew Inc. is pleased to announce the release of Shrink & Tether after one year of development and in-house production use. Available for a 20 day free download at www.shrink.it

Shrink & Tether are unique QuickTime encoding applications, geared for the VFX, and post-production industry, with direct access to clips on AutoDesk Stone FS.

To the VFX artist or team; Shrink & Tether are about easier workflow and elimating the artist from non-creative tasks. It’s the hottest thing out there in VFX.” says marketing partner, Veronica Verve.

Encoding a better way in the New Stone Age - Cleanup Crew’s innovation generates quality QuickTimes of spots and clips; without lengthy processes of manual pre-renderings of letterbox and frame counters, burning them, then tasking to uncompressed exports for re-encoding on the Mac. Basically, Shrink does all these tasks in one easy quick step.

Shrink Key Features include:

*Automatic email or IM notification upon encoding completion.
*Automatic version naming. Embedded non-destructive frame counter and letterboxing.
*Intelligent use of multi-cores/processors.
*Automatic format and pixel aspect ratio detection.
*Bypass of compression and scaling to quickly rip a clip from Stone FS for use on a DVD.
*No installation or configuration of server necessary.
*Intelligent cashing of network files.
*Ability to delay frame burn-in and letterbox to account for slates.

Tether allows the ability to use clips on Stone FS from within any QuickTime application, and the ability to transfer any QuickTime readable file directly into Stone FS, such as Shake, Final Cut Pro, Combustion, and After Effects; in addition to transferring any QuickTime readable file into Stone FS.

Tether’s Key Features:

Real time access up to 720P on gigabit network.
*Familiar StoneFS style browser. *Full compatibility with 8,10 and 12 bit color depth.
*Transfers any QuickTime readable clip into StoneFS.
*Ability to imbed a secondary clip as alpha channel within a Tether Clip.
*Clip Persistence - so updates to clips in StoneFS are automatically reflected in the Tether Clip.

What this all means is simply, Flame artists and other VFX artists are able to use revolutionary features with incredible simplicity to produce high quality Quick Times efficiently, enabling easier and more detailed client feedback; simultaneously eliminating non-revenue generating tasks from the Flame Suite.

As a sought after special effects guru of 12 years, Alan Latteri, with projects under his belt with big clients and celebrities such as Nike, New Balance, Canon, Fox Sports, feature films and music videos – for Atlantis Moriset, Brittany Spears, Janet Jackson and more, admits “Shrink & Tether address the necessity in the community to develop Quick Times directly out of the Stone FS.”

Alan Latteri a.k.a – The Clean Up Crew –says, “I developed Shrink & Tether out of necessity to overcome limitations in the current work flow between stone FS and Macintosh. In doing so I have saved valuable time, enabling feedback from clients in a more efficient manner. Thanks to my team, I now offer Shrink & Tether to my fellow VFX brother and sisters.”

“It’s a necessity in the community as there was no way to get Quicktimes directly out of the Stone FS. What I love about using Shrink & Tether are the speed I in which I can provide clients with that latest work in progress directly off the flame and the ease in which they are able to provide precise feedback using the built in frame counter.” says Latteri.

Already, beta testers such as 8VFX, Ntropic, Viewpoint Creative, Money Shots and The Syndicate rave.

$299 for any Final Cut editing software - any kind - is a good deal. You'll be able to do a lot of stuff with that.
