“The Misadventures of Bear” my short film has been released

My short film THE MISADVENTURES OF BEAR has been released and you can check it out on Vimeo, and give a good review if you feel so inclined.

The short was a semi finalist in 5 Film Festivals and an Official Selection in 3! The Los Angeles International Children’s Film Festival which showed at Wondercon 2023 and the San Diego International Children’s Film Festival at Comic Con 2023were really the highlights (you can see some photos at the films website), so much so that I am working on a sequel that can hopefully go back to some of these festivals!

This was a fun little film to make, a way to show off my ability to shoot as well as to do visual effects and to do some puppetry as I grew up with the Muppets and have always loved Puppets.

I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed making it.

You can also check the film’s web site, where I plan on posting some more background stuff.

Larry Jordan Commentary, What’s The Future of Apple Final Cut Pro?

I really agree with this. I was someone who bought Final Cut when it came out and got a refund after 2 weeks, but years later when the program was better I bought it and learned it and got really good and made a list of thoughts and bugs, many of which have not been fixed all these years later.

And it insane that they haven’t given FCP Enterprise features and started using it on their shows for Apple TV, but without a big investment in time and money it really isn’t made for that.

They will keep it around, and have brought out a feature cut (and subscription) version on iPad, but they really aren’t pushing it, like they were with FCP 7 when they had actually overtaken AVID.
