An open letter to Canon from a disgruntled DSLR owner

This made our day, it's a few month old, but this rather excellent and poignant video has resurfaced. Enjoy the film, a few NSFW moments in there and the reason why it's doing the rounds again posted after the break.

This woman is seriously upset about FCPX

What with IBC around the corner and summer holidays happening, it is a slow news day here on the FCP.co campus. We were saving this for Friday but thought it might lighten up a dull Tuesday. NSFW

Advice on getting your film financed by Lonnie Ramati

Slightly off topic for a friday, but these three videos on Lonnie Ramati talking about film financing had us glued to the computer for the duration. Worth a watch to find out the what the 'Three levels of scum in the film industry" are.

A rap about a day in the life of a Final Cut Pro editor

FCP news is a bit thin in this FCP7 to FCPX watershed time. We could repost one of the cloned blogs about FCPX from any of the 1700 editors that attended the SuperMeet. We could post one of the many CineStyle Canon 5D Vimeo tryout reels. Nope, we have decided to go for originality with a rap about FCP. Just remember where you saw it first :)

F*ck You. Pay Me. 40 minutes of good advice on contracts and getting paid

It is NSFW, but this video is jammed packed with excellent advice. How to ask for a decent daily rate, what should be in a contract, how to get paid etc.

Always check your permissions before you film your budget rap video on a Canon 5D NSFW!

Much hilarity at fcp.co HQ when we saw this. Some naughty 'Gangsta' words in there so it has to have a NSFW flag.

"I am the ProRes Maker" A rap song about ProRes & FCP with NSFR lyrics

Well we have featured rap songs about Canon cameras, After Effects and more, so why not have an "in your face" rap about ProRes?
