Gonna Miss You Frank!

It is unfortunate that my very first blog entry has to be an obituary. In case you haven’t heard the news, Frank Capria is no longer with us. No, don’t panic, he isn’t pushing up daisies, it’s a little worse than that, he is working for a manufacturer! Of course I’m running with a bit of humor here, but there is also a serious undertone. Frank was one of the guys leading the resistance to push the manufacturers to improve the products and pricing in our market space… and now he’s been absorbed.

Super Heroic efforts rule the digital universe,

where we’re all acquiring and creating media at an alarming rate—media that requires vast amounts of storage space. If your clients are like mine, they are remarkably unsophisticated, sometimes even careless, about how and why to protect the valuable images we make for them. Drobo® changes all that. When they come crying to you, wouldn’t it be great to be the hero and say, “yes, I’ve got you covered!”

It’s a longie but a goodie as I tried to go into detail about what I really like and what I kinda don’t like about this brand new Premiere Pro. I had been pounding it hard on several projects before writing the review. I have had a few questions about exactly what kind of jobs I’ve been working on with it.
