Mike Daisey is doomed. Every dog has his day - Apple will, at some point in the future, fall from grace - but poor Mike, one day he will die - there's nothing surer. As will we all. So my condolences in advance to those you will eventually leave beh…

Consumer 4K is nonsense. As a post prod guy and colourist, I've just spent hours BLURRING 4 K drone footage at source to roll into an HD timeline to make it acceptable for broadcast - the artificial sharpening in all these allegedly 4K cameras gener…

Time we had an Apple Store here really. I mean we're a tiny country, only the size of the UK, fewer sheep than reputed, and million people plus in my town. So I reckon, just for visiting Americans, Australians and Chinese, we deserve a really tiny A…

In the late 1990s I think, using OS9, I signed up to a free account for Mac users on iTools. My friends marvelled that all my computers were now in sync, and that I had cloud storage at my fingertips. Then came .Mac, which I think I had to pay a sma…

Yep they should be "Spiky", like Apple's share price this week. Why? Anyhow, very happy with mine.

In 2008 New Zealand's Labour government lost an election to the National Party, in government to this day, in part over the preposterous idea that new house builds should be required to include water saving shower heads, and energy-sapping tungsten …

It might be 4K, but does that make it great? More "K" doesn't mean better pictures - even if that comes off an Ambarella chip and gets compressed to a grotty 4Mbps H.264 - it's 4K, isn't it? That's got to be better than HD? No it doesn't. For real e…

If Watch sales have collapsed and warehouses in Shenzhen are bursting with unsold stock, why can we in New Zealand still not pre-order the thing? This Skice report smells like a huge algorithm fail that will hurt Slice far more than AAPL.

Seems Apple Australia retains the delusion that New Zealand is an ignorable, outer territory, maybe colony, of their vast Australasian domain - why would our tree-dwelling primitives need the ability to pre-order an Apple Watch when you can get your…

Give me arrow keys, not a silly magnifier. Try editing a url in Safari - too hard.

Mmm - great they're advertising. Shame we can't even pre-order it yet here in NZ. Thanks Apple Australia! As for an actual Apple Store, we'll line up behind Kalgoorlie%u2026 still, off to Sydney in a week so I might actually get to peer at one in a …

Nice! Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not picking on me.... But it is rather odd that a city roughly the size of Brisbane or Perth and substantially bigger than Adelaide is still considered an outpost of the ANZAC Empire.... Lest We…

Seems Australians are desperate to elevate their status over the hapless citizens of nations very slightly smaller than they are ... here in NZ, firmly under Apple Australia's thumb, we can't even pre-order the thing. As for an Apple Store - puh! …

Oh, Wizard, where do I start? In FCP 7 you could do useful workflow things like copy the present frame timecode from one field and paste it into another. I built an AppleScript that could take sequence chapter markers (Export Markers to Text...), …

Look I agree FCP X has taken great strides but for an app that prides itself on being a one-box answer to get stuff up to share it falls short in key areas. For example, where's the audio mixer interface? Without a trip through Logic or ProTools (wh…
-
Really? Affect is one thing, kill your pictures is another. On the other matter, FCP X remains barely usable in a chained workflow environment which is why FCP7 is still ubiquitous. Opinions vary I know - but FCP X is a horrid slippery slidy tool fo…
