I've never worked with Adobe, but Final Cut is awesome. Well worth the money.

One isn't better than another, it's what you have to do with it.

This is why most editors learn all the different systems, and change them accordingly to each project they're doing.

Final Cut PRO is better than Premiere Pro if you ask me

However - I'd be hard put to compare Final Cut EXPRESS to Premiere Pro... I really couldn't say.

Well - I always recommend Avid Xpress Pro.

Yes, but that's not one of the options, is it?

I would recommend Final Cut.

I cant believe no one has pointed out to this kid yet that they are on different platforms.

So unless you are planning on buying a new computer as well, you can only use premiere pro on pc, and you can only use final cut on a mac...so that should seriously affect your decision me thinks. what platform are you on?

TD, compare express to premiere elements...they are more on the same plane. And in my opinion, even as a premiere user, FCP express and Pro are both far better than premiere pro and elements...no question. I've used both to a great extent, and Premiere Pro, while a great leap forward, is still lacking. The only reason i use premiere is because i have to use a pc.

Long story short, if you can buy a new comp, go FCP with a mac. If you are stuck with a pc, go with premiere pro or elements.

Good points Jeff

What platform are you on Mr. ??? ?

Gosh, it's grammatically hard to ask you a question and call you by name simultaneously

 

[jeff]

well you could address him as youngfilmmaker...as he signs his posts...

and i'll second the post you made a while back that he strangely resembles smiles...but he says he isnt...even though the questions seem to overlap...curious...

I will have to agree with you. A quick look in both of their profiles pretty much sums it all up for me...

"Smiles" e-mail address:
smiles906@yahoo.com

"???" e-mail address:
filmmaker906@yahoo.com

"Smiles" IM screenname:
smiles906

"???" IM screenname:
lilguy9064


To me it seems like a little too much to be just a coincidence... so what would be a possible motive for this double-membership?

 

[jeff]

oooh...check out the sleuthing on braininabox lol

hmmm...care to share smiles aka youngfilmmaker aka ???

Maybe they are twins...so they have the same birthday...906...hmmm...

 

[titaniumdoughnut]

and they both use that little ~ symbol

but - it really doesn't matter and i'm willing to accept his statement that he's never heard of smiles cause i actually don't care eaither way...

 

[jeff]
