Mac or PC? Which one would get me into the film industry easier?
-
I'm about to finish my first year for Film Production at University and now I'm starting to think whether or not to switch my PC laptop for a MacBook Pro 15" either the 2.2 or 2.4 version. My simple question is this, which one would be more acceptable for me to get into the film industry easier? Explanation: At University we are using Macs and Final Cut Pro 7 to edit with as well as Adobe products such as After Effects. Because we are capturing footage through Final Cut, the format is an all Mac format so if I wanted to take the raw footage back home to edit a different video on my PC laptop with Sony Vegas and After Effects, it’s impossible without converting it and losing its quality. I feel I would have the same problem after I finish University. Which one would be my best bet? Switching between Mac and PC and using editing programs is not an issue. I’ve been using Sony Vegas for 7 years now, Final Cut Pro for 3 years and After Effects for 3 months. I am a quick learner such as I’ve only used After Effects for 3 months but I seem to know what I’m doing and get the job done quicker compared with someone in my class who has been using it for 3 years.
