I tend to use either Animation or Apple Intermediate these days - animation is quite standard with motion graphics type stuff, and AIC seems to play quite nicely with FCP. Have yet to find a perfect solution for FCP though, it seems to be reluctant to work with screen-captured source footage at best - as compared to Premiere, which seems - for whatever reason - to be better suited to this kind of footage - I prefer FCP though…

I have been using screenflow to, and I find myself itching to do a bit more in FCP. However I have not yet found a good set of settings for export into FCP. I have been using the “Lossless” setting, and scaling to 100%. What do you find you use?

Hey Josh! Been meaning to drop you a line since Lee mentioned nutintuit - nice work!

Screenflow is mighty fine, and with Camtasia on the way later this year, it looks like there’s less reason than ever to stray over to the dark side.

I’m following you on Twitter, too, if that’s cool?

Hello, Lee Lefever pointed me to your site, and low and behold, look what I find, the holy grail of screen capture software for the Mac! I have debated using Camtasia in Parallels, but this might be the better alternative. Cheers.

PS: mind if I follow you on Twitter? I’m the nutintuit guy (www.nutintuit.com)

Thanks! Josh

Hey Shane - haha, reckon you Windows folk have been spoiled long enough with Camtasia (although the forthcoming mac version looks like it’s going to be sweet)

Rich - I should have mentioned that. As far as I know the issue is that Screenflow uses some of the core effects and *enter vague mode* other advantages only present in Leopard. Nice to see Leopard actually having advantages for once, it’s been a roller-coaster since I installed it and I can see why people have hung back on installing. Reckon that after a couple of big software updates and ProApps updates things are about good to go now - as long as you have plenty of memory to throw at it.

This is a great product. Thing is, it doesn’t install for Tiger.

Michael,

Hell, you made me want to go out and buy a Mac. Nice sounding product.

Hey Christian

übercaster rocks too, agreed. great interface, nice feature-set. together with this, that’s a killer micro production combo.

i agree that there are a few features i’d like to see added - i’m going to post some thoughts here soon on that front, but overall this really rocks. loving the 3d space thing too.

Indeed, I also directly bought it
And I even started to use it instead of iMovie for simple videoblogging stuff as it’s so much faster. It would be cool if they would more features for this usage.

And I am just praising this and Übercaster on my podcast

Thanks for posting about it!
