Hi All
I am the IT administrator for our church and have been asked to take a look at our multimedia / video creation and how to improve it.
At the moment we have a Mac Book (2006 version) with iLife 09 and Final Cut Express 3.5.
Our video clips are currently being created in iMovie 09, however I'm not sure that we are getting the best out of this and wanted to see what our options are.
Money isnt in abundance so here are my proposed plans:
Mac Book currently has 1.5 GB RAM so I intend upgrading this to 3 GB
Instruct staff to learn Final Cut Express 3.5 or possibly upgrade to Final Cut Express 4.
As the Mac Book only has 1 hard drive, add an external Firewire drive as a "scratch disk" - Though sure how this will work with only ONE firewire port on the Mac Book.
Anyway if anyone could comment / advise / add etc my upgrade plans I'd really appreciate it.
Regards
