Larry Jordan Blog



Welcome
Posted by on August 31, 2008

The worlds of digital video production and post-production are exploding, fragmenting, morphing, and recombining at a furious rate.  It is impossible to keep up with everything – even if you devote yourself to it full-time.  That’s where my blog can help.

In addition to my weekly audio podcasts – Digital Production Buzz.com – and monthly Final Cut Studio newsletters – www.larryjordan.biz/newsletters – I needed a more timely way to keep you informed on what’s going on.  With our industry in a state of constant upheaval, it is often hard to figure out what’s really going on, to get reliable advice, or, sometimes, distinguish marketing exuberance from practical reality.

My goal is to help separate the fact from the fable, so you can pick the equipment, software, and systems that work for you.  While my focus is on Apple’s Final Cut Studio, this blog will be more wide-ranging than that, which allows us to cover more ground and provide a more complete look at what is happening across a broader range of our industry.

Even better, this blog allows you to add your own comments to help us to learn from each other. Click the word Comments in the lower left corner to add your thoughts to the conversation. If you don’t have time to check in every day, click the RSS button, next to the Comments button, to see all the latest postings.

These are exciting, strange, weird, and stressful times. Keep your sense of humor and let me know what you think.

Larry

    Glad that you implemented a blog, Larry! Are you going to have an RSS feed to it so that I can see when you’ve added a new posting? An RSS feed is essential to a blog…

    Great to see a blog here Larry. What I don’t see is an rss feed for the blog itself, just the comments. Is there a feed for the entire blog?

  9. Larry Sep 03, 2008 17:23

    Scott & Ted:

    We do have an RSS feed, which currently just shows comments as the blog has only one entry.

    As we add entries, the RSS feed will reflect that.

    Hey Larry,

    I have to admit that this is probably my 1st time writing on a Blog, but this idea really got me interested. This blog seems to be a very productive and engaging idea. I have been keeping track of your Tutorials and Newsletters for over two years now. Frankly, I have found your advices and techniques, and those ones not so yours, very helpful and useful throughout my work.

    Keep it on!

    Yeiber:

    Thanks for writing — and thanks, also, for the kind words.

    Just wanted to give you a shout out of THANKS. Through your site and books, we have a better understanding of editing tools and toys in this ever changing industry

    As a former student it is always great to hear the teachers passing on more knowledge.
    Keep up the good work and tell your daughter to keep her hands on the wheel!!
