FilmSound.org: dedicated to the Art of Film Sound Design & Film Sound Theory The Basics of Video Editing Part III: Effects and Color Correction I have found Premiere Pro's titler to be much more user friendly than Final Cut Pro's, at least with the last version of FCP I used. My gripe with Premiere Pro's is that it CAN be a little slow sometimes. I highly recommend learning motion graphics in After Effects. Once you understand keyframes and curves in there, you can apply that to any program. One warning about linear motion graphics... they don't look natural. On color correction, make sure you have a good monitor. [www.xrite.com]
The Best Sites for Royalty Free Stock Music and Sound Effects You can't have video without audio... it just doesn't work. That's why in high school it was A/V club, not just V Club... although that does sound pretty rad. Anywho... if you want to complete an animation, short film, commercial or whatever... you have to have good audio, and that means scores and sound effects! I have found some of the best places around the web to purchase packages, find individual songs, and even snag some free tracks for you and your work! AudioJungle AudioJungleWe can't leave out one of our most useful sites on the Envato Network! The Rest SmartSound.comA division of SonicFire Pro's awesome scoring software, the SmartSound library lets you pick from thousands of songs and hundreds of albums in their library.
