Now Business News Channel’s Editors training at Fatbars

When we approached to train editors and designers for a new News Channel for PCCW, we were excited just to be involved. This is one of the first News Channel that are using Final Cut Pro 5 and Motion 2 to edit dailies for their 24-hour financial new channel. Unlike other movie channels, this fast paced and highly stressed news environment will put even the toughest editors, producers and designers through daily challenge.

PCCW’s NOW BROADBAND TV’s BUSINESS NEWS CHANNEL was launched in March 2006. NOW Business News Channel- this all-new 24-hour financial new channel provides thorough and insightful analyses, enabling you to keep up to speed on the markets.

Like our previous training with STAR and DISNEY, we also customized their course. But unlike them, their needs include smoothing out their workflows, from the time they have their raw footage to the time it goes on air. This included using Soundtrack Pro to clean up the audio background noise and the ability to combine Motion 2 and After Effects to create their channel graphics. Sze taught final Cut Pro 5. And Motion 2 by Samantha. They were trained before the launch at our office, with tools that could assist them in their daily task. We wish them best of luck!
