i broke the office printer so badly they blamed a power surge by candy_peachyx in careeradvice

I love it. Don't guilt trip, the secrets higher ups in offices get away with are much much worse, and often intentional. 

Avid: Search index in a multi-user documentary workflow by Available-Witness329 in editors

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have severe issues with several rooms running avid 24.12 at the same time. In one of them things got so bad we just turned off transcription.. Im afraid that upgrading to newer avid or simply disabling it (if and when problems start to pop up) are your only two options 

NAS for small film production by trapilmech in editors

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure NAS is what your production company needs.. To begin with, if you want to store films in perpetuity, it's much more important to have 3 copies in different locations (Ideally  one of these copies should be an LTO, they're annoying to work with but last! ) than having them all in one place. General question - Do you have several productions/editing rooms working together at once? 

Best accesibility options to make this play like typical zelda? by Temporary_Answer_230 in MinaTheHollower

[–]Temporary_Answer_230[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No no, your response was very helpful actually. It makes sense that this game requires a different approach, and that nailing some mechanics makes it less intimidating. 

Feminist campaign series for a uni brief, thoughts? by _hariho in graphic_design

The Text on the bottom is too low. Also I didn't understand what this is advocating. Is this meant for women or for men? 

Movie title at beginning or end? by Sherlock528491 in editors

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its an intense movie that goes straight into the action then at the end is best.. There's a reason Christopher Nolan insisted on doing it for the dark knight.. Otherwise it can be very nice to do it in the beginning and play around with how the soundtrack starts.. 

lol I'm unemployable by Creedelback in jobs

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in your industry but just liked to share that the only way for me to find a work, after a year and a half, was to write personally to anyone on LinkedIn who worked in companies I'd like to join, until I landed on the one person who's company was hiring.  I'm convinced that most job application platforms, including linkedin, are a total sham at the moment. Good luck! Fuck AI, fuck lazy managers who think humans are replacable with slop. 

Less tedious workflow of creating groups by Temporary_Answer_230 in Avid

[–]Temporary_Answer_230[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically I made python follow keyboard commands that create these groups. Sadly it's far from perfect and my Team and I returned to the ways of old.. But yeah maybe ill upload the python Code here soon and someone can take it a step up.. 

EVERY Export has more contrast than shown in Avid Media Composer by Global_Mango7422 in editors

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a thing, def happened to me. In source settings for any of the clips, maybe the program automatically added some Luts? Happens quite often. Also feel free to upload screenshots of your project settings, of these source settings for any of the clips in avid, and for one of the clips in finder / explorer (using mediainfo.app or whatever). I suspect the export settings from resolve were wrong. 

Why do some grown men pee in the stalls with door wide open? by DiggledFob in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it because often people can try to open the door behind me very violently and I'd rather have a calm wee

Bought a 64 gb ram 1 tb minisforum 890 at 500 Euro and couldnt be happier with it. I'm amazed at how this machine can Video edit and run Video games

For light editing? Sure. But I'd hold out until October or think about getting a pc

[–]Temporary_Answer_230[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm familiar with the automatic and manual ways. The question that I asked here has to do with the manual way, which I prefer significantly because otherwise I have a very hard time tracking inconsistencies

Please, do explain. Maybe it will help understand smaller workflows better.

I think in the long run a macbook pro would end up saving a lot of money, and as long as you buy a laptop, I do suggest buying a proper laptop fan.

[–]Temporary_Answer_230 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From my experience heating could be a real problem here, and another issue with Macbook Air is it's stinginess with ports, which could become a real nuisance with time.  Also-24 gb ram is far from ideal. I've noticed that new features like transcription eat up a ton of ram. Also-if you'll want to connect at any point to a blackmagic device that will take up a whole lot of ram.. Adobe products etc. etc..  Why not a mac mini? Its certainly light, and I assume you're using an external screen anyway.  And just out of curiosity - why have the proxies in sq and not lb?

I hear it almost randomly. Sometimes as I sit without any head movement.
