     Filmmaker Magazine recently asked independent filmmaker Jamie Stuart to test drive the new Final Cut Studio 2 on his latest short film. Halfway through post production he wrote up a great piece on the ins-and-outs of the new software suite that can now be found on the mag’s website.

    First released six years ago, Final Cut Pro created a new dimension in the world of DIY filmmaking – an intuitive, consumer-grade software that cut out nearly all post production costs....
