In this episode of The Terence and Philip Show, the guys discuss the very unsexy topic of workflow, particularly automating the workflow. Philip shares many of the background decisions related to Lumberjack System – his company’s logging and pre-editing system for Final Cut Pro X – including why it’s limited to FCP X.

Other topics include automation; Digital Heaven’s announcement of SpeedScriber; how Lumberjack has developed based on user, and use, feedback; the post NAB development of noteLogger; Prelude LIveLogger and the Premiere Pro ecosystem and NLE market shares; how development resources are allocated.
