I guess I should go for FCPX and do color grading on Davinci Resolve once I learn something. Thanks everyone.

Yeah but at least I need to know and understand all tools in order to study. At this point, I don't even understand the color grading itself compared to photography. I'm just wondering if I can just do color grading on Davinci Resolve while I do editing on Final Cut Pro X or not.

Well, idk how to learn and study with Resolve cause it's too complicated especially the color grading. Are there any online course that I can take for Davinci Resolve especially the color grading?

Well, I think FCPX would be nice cause I'm using Mac. I'm not sure if I can even learn Adobe Premiere Pro since I don't have any video related knowledge such as LUT, iris, 4:2:2, etc. I seriously don't want to pay annually for my software. I have few goals to achieve with video editing 1. 360 video workflow with GoPro (GoPro player allow 360 videos to ProRes. For Windows, good luck) 2. Editing for Youtubers or small scale clients? 3. Personal work 4. Working at the video production team (Maybe) 5. Stop motion At this point, learning is my main objective as I don't have a video camera especially with ProRes codec. It would be nice if I can have ProRes RAW files to play with.

I know that video editors can use multiple software all together such as Final Cut Pro X, Davinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, and Avid, but I just want to learn one software tho I'm interested to get a side job for video editing to be honest. Btw I'm using a Mac desktop and I majored in photography. I already tried 3 main software except AVID. I have to ask this question cause many work places demand video editing skill as a photographer(...) Yeah, photography itself is not that profitable for most of them and I gotta learn something for video which I'm interested in. Having another career for video is not a bad idea I guess? Base on the requirement from Indeed, most of them demand Adobe software but It seems to be slow and buggy on Mac. I may need to buy a new Mac but that happened on iMac Pro 2017. You may say try anything and decide but I did that for few years and I still couldn't decide. For now, I just wanna focus on one software for personal uses such as 360 videos and art works. Any thoughts and suggestions?

It seems they are noticed about this scammer and yet doing nothing while he comments and posts in DPR. I still amazed by how he used his pathetic knowledge in DPR.

Update: With all evidence I sent, he responded like this.

1. He still didn't pay back. He claims he is a poor dentist student and yet he bought PS3 or 4 and I highly doubt that he is a poor person. 2. He is pretending as a professional filmmaker. The fact is, he doesnt even own a production company and doesnt even teach cinematography. 3. On DPR, he refused that he is not the same person from EOSHD while he has the same look from both Facebook and DPR. 4. He never ever apologized about his scam. 5. I'm sick of his poor knowledge toward video as he pretending as a professional filmmaker.

I sent additional information and I hope to get a response from them soon.

Updates: One of DPR staff told me about proofs and information. I already sent several links including this post. Tho I sent as many evidence as possible, I wonder if anyone can provide more information and evidence about his scam?

I would try to ban and report his DPR and Facebook account by exposing his past.

lol, people change as life changes? How come he still pretending as a professional filmmaker with false info? What about his own company? Does he even work as a filmmaker? Check his DPR threads and comments. They are disgusting especially with cinema cameras that he believes Canon cameras are way better than cinema cameras. His scam may be the first and last, his information on several websites are terrible. He is a dentist but how come he considers himself as a filmmaker? Is he really the second AC for Egypt's largest cinema production? In the last 5 years? What is Qalb el Asad? Does he even own a video production company at 24? BS lol seriously? Do any of cinematographers use dual pixel AF for movies or TV series?

lol yeah. I saw comments about cinema cameras that Canon cameras will dominate them. Such as dual pixel AF can replace current focus pulling. He knows nothing about cinematography. Btw, does he really works as a professional? This is what he said: "I work in the professional video industry, saying that all these amazing technological advances aren't needed because 'real' pros work around them, is exactly like those saying pros don't need anything but a MF Leica without an LCD. It's ridiculous. 1- An EVF is an emmensely valuable tool for cinematographers, and external cinema EVFs are extremely low quality for some reason. To get a 3.89m dot type external EVF, you'll pay 5000+, and have an HDMI cable dangling. 2- IBIS is an extremely valuable tool, and we've tried the GH5 on gimbals and it actually aids 3 axis gimbals, not work against them, I call BS from Panasonic and pretty sure the oversized sensor just didn't have room to move inside the mount. Cinematographers have been using IS cameras and lenses on gimbals for years and they work very well. Plus this is a handheld camera, not an URSA Mini. 3- AF, anyone who doesn't appreciate AF in the cinema work is either a snob shooting film or didn't try DPAF! It saves money." BS. https://***URL removed***/news/8108094649/photojournalist-faces-death-penalty-in-egypt-for-covering-anti-government-protests?comment=2254558522 Actually, some of them found his past. Now, he is refusing that he didn't do that and not the same person... Who wanna fight him back?

Sadly, there is no way to arrest him. Ever. Egypt is not in a condition to deal with this issue. The only way to solve this issue is to expose his truth on DPR and stop him from being an active user. All users from DPR know nothing about him and yet he is pretending as a professional filmmaker with false info.

They are. But they didn't do anything on him. Well, I guess we can expose his past on DPR.
