In a very bold move, my wife has decided to try her hand at full-time blogging.

mr wrigglebot is where she details her experiences as a mum dealing with our little wrigglebot.

So if you’re a parent, or looking for reasons not to become a parent, check it out (she updates it way more frequently than mine).

Or even just pass it on to someone who might enjoy.

Today at NAB, Apple announced Final Cut Studio 2.

It includes; the updates Final Cut Pro 6, Motion 3, Soundtrack Pro 2, Compressor 3, a new application called Color, and DVD Studio Pro 4.

Being a long term Studio user, I’m really excited about the updates. My 3D compositing experience has mainly been from using After Effects, and so having the capability integrated in the suite with Motion is fantastic. I’m very interested in Color also (well, not the American spelling, but there is nothing we can do about that) and it looks like an app that I will be spending a lot of time enjoying.

We’re getting a copy in the office pretty much as soon as it ships here in Australia, so stay tuned for pros and cons, hypes and gripes, and things that I’ll go ape over.

I’m writing this while working on a project for Proeye Visual Productions. I’m to make their corporate showreel. Cool, I’m totally into it.

So I’m looking at all the companies that we have produced content for and trying to find their hi res corporate logos on the internet.

Now. This isn’t the first time I’ve had to do this. At Burbank, and with free lancing, it was a pretty common thing. Needing a high res copy of a logo to use.

So, note to companies: a media/ press page on your website with high res downloads of your logo would be the coolest thing ever.
