Re: [school-discuss] cinelerra - Help!

Raffaella,

Wow!  Cool!  Editing animations with 7-8 year olds.  Thatś great.

Raffaella, you might be able to answer Garyś question - comparing Cinelerra
to iMovie.  I have not used either yet.

My M.A. is in Media Communications.  I worked as an intern in the campus TV
studio, but that was almost 20 years ago.  Not much was digital back then.  So
I am trying to make the transition to digital with Cinelerra.  I played with
Premiere in ´94, but it was still pretty weak back then compared to commercial
tools.

I really want to do movie making and music composition with my multimedia
students.  The rhythm composition in Hydrogen added to the Gimp slide show
project turned out pretty cool.  So we will inch our way along.

Thanks again for all your advice!!  I will test it on Monday!

Marilyn
