PRESENTER

Scott Simmons has spent over a decade working in the field of film and video post-production. While Scott is a trained and experienced Avid editor, being an early adopter of Final Cut Pro allowed him to spend nearly 8 of those years as a freelance editor working in Nashville, Tennessee on projects ranging from music videos and concerts to commercials and corporate videos to documentaries and television programs. Scott is also creator of the Editblog, a long running blog dedicated to post-production, which is now a channel at Pro Video Coalition. He is also a contributing writer to Studio Daily and has taught classes at NAB. In 2009 he edited what might be one of the first DSLR multicam concerts shot at the House of Blues in Chicago.

Plenty of other software like Aperture, Premiere Pro, and even Final Cut Server, use metadata extensively, but Final Cut Pro 7 and earlier? Not so much. That's changed now with FCP X. FCP X is not just a complete rewrite – it's a rethink of how modern non-linear editing software meets the needs of editors. And part of that rethinking is relying heavily on metadata as a foundation for organizing media in Final Cut Pro X. Learn more about this eBook.
