I find this Forum and other forums and now SKYPE conferencing, a far more productive and immediate educative experience.
#BORIS GRAFFITI 7 INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL MANUALS#
Generally I have a very low opinion of manuals and only defer/refer to them in abject extremis. And yes, and for the reasons above, I don't like reading manuals but prefer "seeing" a real person DOING via a DVD or downloading a tutorial. Having a programmer looking over their shoulders, wherever possible, manuals SHOULD be written by Users – period! And they should be accompanied by DVD tutorials.
#BORIS GRAFFITI 7 INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL SOFTWARE#
I do know I have a healthy scepticism of not only the way they are written but also the input that the software developers have in their construction and final proofing. I shy away from the more enthusiastic "Manual-Thumping" I hear and read. Manuals mostly tell us what the software is designed to do - tutorials enlighten us as to what I COULD do with it. And I too feel, IMHO, the manuals often barely disclose the more valuable "creative" options - just note the PRE/POST toggle thread some 2 weeks back. So, GG, at this point I started to loose the will to live and assigned both BG3 and my purchase of it to the same place that my DICONIX Kodak printer is now gently fossilising. As to spending time with BG3 and wishing to improve my skills base for it - I have attempted to read and re-read the 651 page tome and been beaten I spotted some crucial page reference errors within its pages noted that the potentially valuable online “assistant” was NOT part of BG3, when it clearly states that it is! educated myself in the use of Satish's Frameserver to get something akin to real time previewing within and to and from VegasBG3 - so I had got that far. I therefore cannot make "creative" edit decisions in real-time. I cannot easily "see" what I'm doing in Vegas and have it reflected back in real time within BG3. I cannot creatively - note that word GG - "synch" audio from my main Vegas project to it. I hear people saying that it is better to run it as a standalone. I need to change my Vegas set up, for a “plugin” to work? Really? It requires me to reduce my RAM allocation in Vegas to allow it to work. I keep hearing and reading that BG3 is referred to as a plug-in and IMHO it isn't. On the other hand I found Vegas as easy as pie – I really did.

I found the Boris Graf3.0 manual both opaque and confusing. Not specifically you, Tech, but new people in general.

:-) Try spendibg at least five years learning to become a pro in this business if you want all the success and money to follow. Most of us spent a lifetime learning our skills and becoming good at what we do and now we have gernerations who think they are pros wanting apps that allow one button results with automatic success in their careers. If a new app is easy to use without having to spend some time to learn anything, then it will not do to much overall the longer you have it. People who say it's hard usually don't like reading manuals or spending time trying out the tutuorials to learn a new app. RED and Graffiti are great apps and I like it better than After Effects, which doesn't plug in at all to Vegas. You can easily double click an event in Vegas and Vegas's duration box will tell you what that time will be so you can enter it in RED. If you want a 3 second transition for RED to make, then enter 3:00 in the duration box in RED when it opens. The other thing is you have to manually enter the duration of you event in RED becuase Vegas is not handing that number off to RED.
That is not a big problem unless you need to abuild an FX synced to the video or audio changing over time.
It will not supply all the frames from an event to play in RED. Basically, you only get one frame showing up in RED (everything for RED applies to Graffiti, too) when you apply a transition, text or a filter.
It works in Vegas, but it is somewhat limited compared to how plugins work in other host NLEs.
