"Editing on the web - a revolution in film making"
in Simply-communicate.com
describes the future for professional video editing.
The article concludes: "Streater gave a presentation organised by the IVCA to what became an increasing gob smacked group of producers, directors and editors.
One was heard to say afterwards, "This is the classical example of a disruptive technology," - and did he have a point.
Everyone could see the writing on all sorts of walls and certainly anyone thinking of investing in a city-centre post production
facility would be advised to read this article first".

FORscene milestone
Professionally shot video in
FORscene
has, for the first time, passed the 1,000 hours mark.
Uploaded over pre-existing internet connections, this material is accessible
over the internet using standard computers.
The biggest projects each run to hundreds of hours of source video, though of course FORscene also
handles smaller projects.

"Trust Me - I'm a Holiday Rep - A logging miracle!",
reports the
IVCA
newsletter. Jo Manser, Head of Post Production at Nats is quoted:
"During the logging phase, up to 20 individuals were simultaneously working
on rushes via their PC's at Granada ... Whilst the loggers were logging,
the directors were simultaneously viewing the logged material, mapping out
their programmes prior to editing.
Compared to the length of time and inconvenience of conventional logging solutions,
this is an incredible leap forward".
