Making Yokel and Barkitecture with Final Cut Pro
Armed with Apple laptops and desktops in his den, Knoxville filmmaker Dario Gildrie and his 3 man crew cranks out about 30 episodes a year for DIY and Turner South. The shows: 'Barkitecture' giving you a birds eye view of the construction of the most lavish doggie homes around and 'Yokel' a show that takes you on an advernture through the backroads of the American South, giving you a taste of small town southern hospitality.
'I do an up-convert from 720p to 1080i through a DecLink card to a Panasonic deck, then loop into the high-def cam for a copy and then down-convert it for standard definition. It takes me an hour a show to make three versions. It's amazing, really, and I'm doing it all with Final Cut.' -- Dario Gildrie
See how these guys crank these shows out from home!
