You must have a great deal of patience to be an editor. There is not a one of use who has not said to their companions," I'm just finishing this up, will be there in 15 minutes tops.", only to find themselves still at work in the editing bay 4 hours later. Heck, once you're in the zone you just can't leave. Even more so, you must have the patience of a bona vide saint to be a Rotoscoper.

 The range of the video editing software market has been remarkably stable over the past decade or so, with a clear divide between "consumer" tools in the $50 to $100 to $150 range, and "professional" tools from the likes of Adobe, Apple, Avid and Sony, starting at around $700 to $800.

 My job here as a writer for NotebookReview is to distill complicated information into something that the average consumer can understand. Most things computer-related have some kind of basic analogy anyone can grasp, but video editing is wholly its own entity. The basic workflow is simple and logical to me because I've been doing it for nearly a decade now. How do you quickly convey it to someone who's completely new at it?

 When you think of Adobe's Creative Suite software, "inexpensive" is not the first word that comes to mind. Its flagship (and most famous) app, Photoshop, can cost from $699 to $999 to buy new—and that's just by itself. The collections of various apps (also bought new) run from $1,299 for the relatively modest Design Standard to $2,599 for the everything-and-the-kitchen-sink Master Collection. True, you can save hundreds of dollars if you're upgrading from previous versions.

 If you’ve read some of my past articles about RED, you know I’m not a huge fan of “native” editing using the camera raw files as source clips. I find that an offline/online workflow is still best for smoothly editing RED projects, yet it still retains access to the raw color data during the finishing process. Previously I discussed an easy workflow for Apple Final Cut Pro and Color users, but this isn’t the only solution. As you know, Avid Media Composer 5 and Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 have both in

 Adobe has added the “Mercury” engine to CS5 for increased performance in Premiere Pro by using Nvidia’s CUDA graphics processing features. This is great work and can be useful in many ways. In fact CineForm may consider using CUDA in the future for some of our non-compression Active Metadata processing. A common question we get is – should I use CUDA or NeoScene for AVCHD content?
