Magic Mouse
I’m a little late to the party on this. Regardless, I wanted to say something about how much I enjoy using this thing. So, I really enjoy using this thing. Specifically I love being able to navigate back and forth in Safari and Finder using the two finger swipe. Superb.
I’m less impressed with the mouse’s integration with Final Cut Studio. Or maybe I just haven’t explored it enough. The frictionless scrolling in Final Cut isn’t quite precise enough to be useful for me. I expect more support is on the way, though. Especially in future versions of the Studio.
Anyway, there wasn’t enough room on Twitter to say all of that.

Another iPhone Time Lapse
Same basic setup as last time. But instead of scaling up for 1080p I scaled down for 720p. I thought maybe this would make the picture a little sharper, and that seems to be the case. It was still light outside which makes the image cleaner anyway.
I wasn’t sure if I was going to capture anything interesting out the window with this one, and it looks like I was right. The most note-worthy observable change here is how the snow on the street melts away — not terribly enthralling.

iPhone 3GS Time Lapse
I used the iTimeLapse Pro [iTunes, $2.99] iPhone app to capture the beginning of the first major snow fall of the season here in Salem. 760 frames total, playing at 24 frames per second. The phone was standing vertically in its dock looking out the window.
Each individual frame started 1536 wide by 2048 high. Which is almost wide enough for a standard 1080p video (at 1920 by 1080). After assembling the frames in a custom FCP timeline, I exported the video and dropped it in Motion where I added the camera movement. The video was still very red from all of the street lights, so I ran it quickly through Color to make it more blue. The graininess is from shooting in such low light.
The final version was exported using the Apple TV preset in Compressor.
