All FCP newbies should watch this video. A cool animation about scratch disks

scratch_disk

Some kinetic typography gives clear advice on how your scratch disk works in Final Cut Pro. Short but to the point and rather cool too. Video after the break.

</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Â </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Three things here;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">1) we hope the new FCPX doesn't have the stupid way in which you have to manually set the scratch disks to keep projects apart</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">2) Why can't all tutorials look this great?</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">3) We wish people would set their poster frames to something relevant!!!</p> </div> <ul class="pager pagenav"> <li class="previous"> <a class="hasTooltip" title="The Top Ten FCP Technical Errors - The FCPX update"
