If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know that we installed an incredible Ethernet based SAN back in December of 2008. It’s the Final Share SAN system from Maxx Digital which features some ethernet wizardry from the folks at Small Tree Electronics. We’ve been pushing the heck out of this system with two feature [...]
Made our last payment on the framing today and all of the “quick and easy” work is now pretty much completed. The framing team did an amazing job and I’m very thankful for all their hard work. My buddy Jeanna and her family came by for the “skeleton tour.” A look into our kitchen / [...]
Went in today to meet with the electrician and check out the framing on the “room within a room” in the Client Theater / Sound Design / Color Enhancement suite. Very cool! Looking at the back of the Client Theater. You can see how the inner wall pulls away from the outer wall. There’s [...]
I’ve been getting quite a few emails from folks asking a lot of questions about Davinci Resolve and Apple Color. Specifically, “which one is better?” That’s a loaded question for a number of reasons, but not the least of which is, they’re both just tools. Neither will make you a better colorist just [...]
It’s September 14th, and the bricks are about done, the Conference Room makes its first appearance and the “inner room” of the sound suite is starting to take shape. Standing in the kitchen looking at our roughly framed Conference Room. We designed it pretty darn big at about 12 feet wide and 20 feet long. [...]
The speed that these guys are moving along with the brickwork is amazing. Then again, it’s just three straight runs that make their lives a lot easier. But I’m just so impressed with the quality of the craftsmanship going on that’s for sure. My nephew Quinn, Rebecca and my brother in law Randy stop by [...]
Here’s a two day update on the goings on at our construction site. I have to say at this point it is getting a little bit overwhelming now that we can actually see all the rooms framed up and realize just how much more space we are moving in to. Our current space is [...]
John and I stopped by this afternoon to take a quick look at the progress on the bricks. Lower level is about done and they’re ready to get moving up on the scaffolding. Really loving the color scheme too. A look at the left side of the building around the garage door. That brick is [...]
Today was Labor Day Holiday in the U.S. and instead of grilling outside, we took advantage of a nice quiet shop to really get into some Davinci Resolve testing. My buddy Ron Anderson volunteered to come over and show me the ropes. When a 30 year colorist offers to “show you the ropes” on a [...]
Had a great day today poking around in the beta version of Davinci Resolve for the Mac. Spent the first few hours just gleaning through the User Manual and that was actually quite interesting. See the User Manual for the new 7.0 Resolve is not out yet so I’m looking through the previous version. What [...]
