NextWaveDV Launches Video Business 101 Course and Crowdfunds 'Film Scene'

Also, they’re running a fundraiser for a neat new series, Film Scene, which will be “the show that takes scenes from your favorite movies and teaches you how to recreate them on an indie film budget.” More »
Video learning site Izzy Video has created a 2.5 hour Final Cut Pro X online training course — and released it for free. Many of the tutorials at Izzy’s site are normally part of a paid membership, but you can go watch this one in its 26-part entirety, without charge. I haven’t done a tutorial on nonlinear video editing since 1998, when I first learned how to edit on a Media 100. But when I booted up Final Cut Pro X this week, I was lost. I couldn’t even drag a clip onto the timeline because the behavior was completely new. So much thanks to Izzy for posting. More »

Here’s a preview of the presentation: More »
