DaVinci Resolve Test Configuration

It’s Labor Day weekend here in the US so I’m taking advantage of the 3 day weekend to set up and start testing the beta version of DaVinci Resolve 7.0 for Mac. Contrary to some of the information that’s out there, you do NOT require two nVidia graphics cards to run Resolve on a Mac [...]

BCM_Construction_Day 76: Brick laying starts

With the Labor Day Holiday weekend upon us, but an absolutely gorgeous day outside, the construction crew decided to work on Saturday and take Monday off. The brick work was started and Joe managed to get his truck in a ditch….. The masonry team gets right to work on the bricks outside. Joe brought us [...]

Gotta thank TapeOnline again!

So a few days ago, I thanked tapeonline for helping us to get the new Microboard 7 DVD burner in here. Cranked out 400 DVDs in about 4 or 5 hours. When the printer went belly up I just called Lauren at TapeOnline and just asked her to recommend a printer. She suggested the Microboards [...]

DVDs not quite dead yet.

Ok, not a new record for many of you out there, but I think it’s amusing with so many discussions all around the Creative Cow about how “tape is dead,” “DVD is dead” “BluRay is dead” here we are purchasing a bunch of equipment for quick turnaround DVD production. We cranked out 400 DVDs in [...]

BCM_Construction_Day 74: Edit suites framed out

The gang and I stopped by to check on the construction. The work crew was on their lunch break so we had the place to ourselves. I’m in the conference room looking back across the facility. That’s Adrienne and Jenny standing just outside one of the bathrooms. These clears pan steel buildings are just so [...]

Follow along with our DaVinci Resolve testing

Well isn’t this refreshing? I’m in a Beta Testing program and I can talk about it publicly. I can even talk to the other folks who are testing the software too. Sure wish a certain company that is all about phones and pads would get the message…… but I digress. BlackMagic Design has given me [...]

Sherwin Williams 18% Grey alternative

In response to the emails I’ve been getting over the past few weeks, I went back and dug out that Sherwin Williams paint recommendation again. It was suggested to some folks we work with as an alternative to GTI Munsell N 8. This is most likely the color I’ll be using in all our new [...]

BCM_Construction_Day 73: Framing continues

Stopped by tonight and we can really see the facility coming together now. I’m standing in the Conference room looking back across the facility. That’s Rebecca standing in the kitchen. On the right side of the picture are Edit Suites 5 - 8. Far left side of the picture are Edit Suites 1 - 4. [...]

BCM_Construction_Days 71 & 72: Framing underway

I’ll say one thing for my contractor Joe McCabe, the man wastes no time at all. Barely is the outside shell completed than his team is inside marking the floors and starting the framing. This was kind of neat for me, I’ve never been a part of a ground up construction before. On Monday, Joe [...]

Looking ahead to the new facility

A lot of folks have been asking me about this and a recent post on Twitter reminded me to go ahead and update you folks on some of what we plan to have in the new facility. Well first off, still running Apple’s Final Cut Pro. At the moment it still serves our needs however [...]
