@frankjonen true. I just think people hear Smoke for 3k and expect it to do the same as the 100k version. Not gonna happen.
@frankjonen that’s how it was in the past.
@frankjonen I’m just saying that the software license alone isn’t everything to make a solid Smoke system. Can’t comment on 2013, but…
@frankjonen don’t get me wrong. 3K for Smoke rocks. And Smoke rocks.
@frankjonen then at least one tape deck. Etc. Smoke, Flame, Inferno. All the same really, except the hardware that grows with each.
@frankjonen well, idealtypisch you need at least one bloody fast raid. I think it usually uses several. Then a broadcast monitor.
@chrisWhite what happened to your love for Fever btw.? I thought you dug it and Reeder integration made it even better.
@frankjonen of course you can just install it on any plain old Mac and have a bad/mediocre experience. But you are using Smoke. Ooh…
@frankjonen …from the huge price tag Smoke once was.
@frankjonen thing about the price is this: after you add on all the required hardware to make Smoke sing, you end up not too far away from…
@mikeseymour ouch. Good luck and a speedy trip from now on forward.
@Jose_Herrera @alexlehnert blended several keyers tuned for each color and in-between colors together plus lots of roto.
@frankjonen I doubt Autodesk sends over an engineer to install Smack on our machines. ;)
@frankjonen but people forget that 100k Smoke was not only the license, but also huge, fast hardware plus personal support.
@frankjonen haven’t had a chance to take a closer look yet. Price tag sounds intriguing though. #smoke2013
@frankjonen it’s fun vs. work. Pixel fucking @ work (comp & shading) vs. letting loose (somewhat) during web devel
@frankjonen it’s a phase I’m sure. ;)
@frankjonen yep. I’m in favor of that at the moment. Can’t you tell? :)
@frankjonen or that :)
@frankjonen yea, keeps my buttocks nice and firm.
@frankjonen sure, but worst case, I get broadly flowing text instead of three narrowly flowed columns.
@frankjonen yup, that’s the one.
@frankjonen yea, that’s the difference we don’t do web work for clients. We only deliver stills or moving images.
@frankjonen I’ve fallen quite in love with CSS columns, which aren’t widely supported yet. The degrade rather nicely into wide text though
@frankjonen I know, weird stuff to say for a guy producing videos.
