Final Cut Tips.com
Contributed by: Shawn
I have had this domain for a little while now, and it was not until today that I was ever serious about doing something with it. Announcing Final Cut Tips. Final Cut Tips.com is kind of like Graphic Reporter.com just its for video, not graphics.
So far there are three articles up, thats because I have only done three pieces. The URL is www.finalcuttips.com. I would love your feedback on the site.
If you have any questions concerning Final Cut Pro, or video feel free to email me at [email protected].

Steve Jobs' 1st Keynote

Apple Expo in Paris or London MacExpo?
Contributed by: Shawn
With the unfortunate announcement that there will be no Steve Jobs Keynote at Apple Expo in Paris - in fact, no keynote at all (and what an interesting turn of phrase from the show's organizers - "the decision not to offer a keynote was not taken by (Reed Expositions)"), going to Paris just became a more "interesting" decision.
There's another show Your Mac Life would like to go to - The MacExpo in London.
Your Mac Life has "done" the Paris show for the past 5 years - we've never been to the London show. Granted, the Paris show, Keynote or not, is a more "important" event - it's the biggest Mac Exposition in the world with many products from Apple and others being announced and introduced there.
But one of the hallmarks of Your Mac Life is that we are always looking for stuff that is new and different and, to be quite honest, there's not much new or different we're really going to see in Paris.
Now London - London *would* be "different". While the show itself is nowhere near as large as the Paris show, in theory we speak the language of *every* vendor at the show so we would be able to talk to more potential interview subjects.
Then there's London itself - different city, food, people, atmosphere, pubs, sights, etc. than we've experienced before.
From our point of view, it's a tough call - both shows have their pluses and minuses. Granted, we *could* do both shows but with other things going on, we'd rather not.
That's why we've posted the poll question on the right - where would *you* like us to report from next? Let us know what you think.

The Graphic Reporter's Tip of the Week

On last night's show I talked about how to use a photo to create texture for type. It's a great way to create grungy or distressed type. Hope you enjoy the tutorial!
Until next week, may the force be with you :)
