Coen Brothers Finish Up True Grit With Final Cut Pro
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (OS X)" @ 08:30 AM
"Straightforward storytelling is the last thing anyone expected from the Coen brothers, more famous for tight filmic twists and dark comic turns. But in their new feature film, True Grit, based on the classic novel of the same name by Charles Portis, the Coens deliver precisely that."
But not without tight deadlines and various production difficulties, however the brothers did make things easier by using Final Cut Pro to do all of their editing. They have used Final Cut Pro for their last five movies so it isn't like this is their first rodeo, so to speak. Interesting read about the process they used and some of the difficulties in making this movie, which by the way, turned out awesome in my opinion. Did you see it? If so, what are your thoughts?
