I’ve just completed the framework for version 2.0 of the website. The biggest addition is the new online store for FinalCutStudio.info
Soon users will be able to purchase video training material for all of the Final Cut Studio applications from our new online store. You can choose to purchase digital downloads for immediate delivery or a DVD that is shipped to your home within 3 days. The digital download purchases are half the price of getting a DVD. There’s also the added cost of shipping for the DVD. I will also be adding stock videos and images as well as templates, alpha transitions, plugins, and apparel.
I’ve added some other small improvements to the site not worth mentioning. There’s still a lot of work to be done before the store has products available. Products should be available a few months from now, but the main framework for version 2.0 is in place and live right now. Stay tuned for products becoming available in our store very soon!
One more thing…
I also setup development of the delete feature for some of the elements on the site. For instance now when visitors choose to hide the Dock on the website then the Dock will be hidden on every page that is visited afterwards until the visitor decides to show the Dock (at which point it will remain visible). This feature is also setup similarly for tutorial articles; so when a visitor choses to remove the tutorial from the results of a page then the tutorial that was chosen to be “deleted” will not appear on any of the pages anymore. I made this development so that visitors could go through the tutorials on the site and once they’ve finished one they can choose to remove it from their tutorial list. The information is stored in a web cookie, so users do not need to be logged in to remove tutorials from the list.
I fixed a lot of other things on the site that became broken after adding the new developments. That’s usually the case: when a new feature is added it breaks 10 features that were already developed. So you get the new feature to work and then you spend a lot of time going back and fixing everything else to work with the new developments.
This is a very exciting time for FinalCutStudio.info Keep your eyes peeled in these next few months as developments progress.
