Douglas Spotted Eagle Gives Adrian Lee Sony Vegas Pro 8


SCROLL DOWN TO WATCH VIDEO

I GOT MYSELF SONY VEGAS PRO 8 TODAY
I went to the Sony Vegas Pro 8 showcase event this afternoon intending to buy the US$300 upgrade version of new Sony Vegas.

Instead I left happily with a US$500 full version of the Sony Vegas Pro 8.

It's the lucky draw first prize and I WON it. :D



VIDEOGRAPHY GURU SPOTTED EAGLE
Adding to the experience, the prize was presented to me by none other than Douglas Spotted Eagle himself, whom specially flew in to Singapore for the showcase event.


Thanks to Derek of TreasureProductions.com for taking this photo and thanks to aone.sg for organizing the event.

So, why did I want to get the new version in the first place?

MULTICAMERA WORKFLOW
You can place like 3 or more video tracks on the screen and choose the shots to be edited just by watching in real time. It makes editing so quick and easy for seminar videos and concert videos.

PROTYPE TITLER
The text generator is now more exciting. No need to use another software to create titles anymore. Make animated text effects with splined paths, per-character animation, and advanced curves.

MAKE MUSIC ROYALTY-FREE
Use ACID loops to make your own music score. ACID loops, or any audio event that has had ACID metadata assigned to it, will auto-stretch to the existing project tempo. The beat syncs itself beautifully.

HDV and AVCHD EDITING
Lastly, Sony Vegas is one of the few video editing software that support AVCHD, the format that will replace DV in the near future.

In the next few articles, I will be reviewing the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Please sign up for my newsletter and stay tuned...

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
