More and more people in Hollywood (directors especially) seem to be jumping on the digital band wagon, what’s interesting about the new set of tools that’s being developed for them, David Fincher, for example, features in a Final Cut Pro promo clip.
This isn’t an Avid workstation he’s using, worth 10s of thousands of dollars, or one of the old Steenbeck film editing suite that no one outside the industry could afford, let alone want to use. This is a bit of software anyone can buy and run (admittedly, for £900), and, as he points out, add things like Shake and After Effects and you can even do your special effects, all on a desktop PC. The tools really are becoming available to anyone, and that, for me, signals some exciting times ahead for film-making.
