Murphy vs AMV Editors

[Koopiskeva]

14: When meeting a creator, their physical appearance will be completely opposite of everything you expect them to be.
a. It will be the 'worst' kind of opposite you imagined.
exception: EK.

but but.. how about i? |":

oh wait.. i only got hawt when i stopped editing :\

These laws are real, fool-proof and true.
Must go out to preach to people now.
The creator's appearence thing maybe correct...

So that's how it works? And here I've been exercising like a sucker.

I have two monitors on my desk, and one of them is always off. I tried editing with it, and then forgot to turn it on once... and I haven't remembered about turning it on since then...

That's because I found it utterly useless, even if it looks cool to have two screens

Usseless?!?!?! by using two monitors and a higher resolution you can greatly improve your editing workspace (at least with premeire and photoshop). I can have my source/preview window on the left while i have my project/timeline/effects on the right. soooo much better then 1 montitor

same with after effects... and you need a the room you can get

But, but... I tried that. I thought that was way more space than I ever had use for, and kinda let it go. I don't know, I may be doing it wrong, but all I ended up having was this huge timeline... I can just scroll you know.

Any examples/suggestion of how Premiere can be made more user-friendly with two monitors are welcome though. I still have a blank monitor on my right-hand side that could use some... using

[Pwolf]

well it's not more user friendly. it becomes more helpful when you have a lot of tracks

Law number sixteen killed me.

Yup, In AE you need all the room you can get

I actually never thought of tring this. I've had my TV hooked up to my comp for some time for AMV viewing, I never thought of tieing it into the editting process. I'll just have to figure out two to set it up again.

Law number sixteen killed me.

16: 90% of all video ideas will never be completed
a: 95% off all video ideas SHOULD never be completed.

The story of my life.

9: Foundation for perpetuated obscurity theorum 2: nobody knows your studio name.
a: nobody wants to know your studio name.
1. they dont want to know it as much in direct corellation with exactly how cool you think the studio name is.

Someday every creator on this site will have a studio name.. Even if they have no members but themselves... And haven't finished a single video... And it's a LBZ video. Then then RIAA will come and arrest all the studios. And I'll win all the conventions! So, um, carry on...
