Allan Tépper

Allan Tépper has been working with professional video since the early eighties, since he first learned to edit video using the open-reel 1/2” EIAJ-1 format with a Sony VO-3650 editing deck in his high school in Connecticut. Since 1994, Tépper has been consulting both end-users and manufacturers via his Florida company. Via TecnoTur, Tépper has been giving video technology seminars in several South Florida’s universities and training centers, and in a half dozen Latin American countries, in their native language. Tépper has been a frequent radio/TV guest on several South Florida Latino stations, and on a couple of Venezuelan stations too. As a certified ATA (American Translators Association) translator, Tépper has also translated and localized dozens of advertisements, catalogs, software, and technical manuals for the Spanish and Latin American markets. Tépper’s most recent translation was the user interface for a Hong Kong company which makes a calling card application (BerryDialer) for Blackberry users.

Over the past 17 years, Tépper’s articles have been published in more than a dozen magazines, newspapers, and electronic media in Latin America, mainly in Producción & Distribución and TTV. In 1998 Tépper founded SOPRÉPROC, the Sociedad para la preservación y progreso del castellano or Society for the Preservation and Evolution of the Castilian language (the world’s most widely used Spanish language). From 2000-2002, Tépper was also the editor of TTV, of the Izarra Group. From the end of 2006 until September 2007, Tépper was the co-director of the South Florida Final Cut Pro User Group. Currently, Tépper is writing for ProVideo Coalition and editing more episodes of his TecnoTur audio podcast, which includes international telephone interviews of industry professionals in Spain and Latin America.

Adobe’s US$99 Premiere Elements for Mac: a first look from a pro video perspective

Adobe’s US$99 Premiere Elements for Mac is marketed for amateurs, but may have pro applications too.

image

Last week, I attended Experience Adobe CS5 Production on a Mac here in Miami. Interestingly, the seminar was organized by a local reseller called Enhanced View Services, although promoted via Apple Events, and the actual presenters were from Adobe and Apple. Even though there was a presentation from Apple before and after the Adobe presentation, I estimate that 75% was about Adobe’s CS5. Many ProVideo Coalition readers know that I have written several articles about Final Cut Pro workflow, and more recently, I’ve published several about Premiere Pro CS5, and I will continue to do so. In addition to saying hello to the people from Apple and Adobe and hearing even more about CS5, I really wanted to see whether there would be any mention of the new US$99 Premiere Elements for Mac, which had been announced earlier in the week… and if not, I wanted to ask questions about it. In this article, you’ll find out more about what happened at this event, and the surprisingly positive answers I got about Premiere Elements for Mac.

An open letter to Apple’s iTunes Podcasting Team

Allan Tépper requests three improvements in iTunes’ podcast handling, plus one more thing

image

Dear Apple’s iTunes Podcasting Team:
We love podcasting, and we love the fact that Apple’s iTunes has helped to facilitate the growth of this relatively new medium since 2005 with iTunes 4.9. Congratulations on releasing iTunes 10 now, in 2010. This letter is to point out three key areas where you need to improve the user experience of podcast subscription and commenting, especially with regard to podcasting in worldwide markets and with its use with mobile devices, and in some cases where some of your competitors (i.e. Google/Android and RIM/Blackberry) already offer podcast subscription apps which are much more user-friendly than the current iTunes podcasting experience. Oh, and of course, there will be one more thing!
