#XTOCC FREE PRO#
Late in the development of Project Xto7 we started work - in close conjunction with Apple - on the development of 7toX for Final Cut Pro, culminating with the release of 7toX for Final Cut Pro concurrent with Apple’s release of Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 in late January 2012. Project Xto7 has gone on to be very successful. He was uncertain that anyone other than himself would have any use, while I could see that there would be a market for it. In our team my husband Greg Clarke is the coder, and he had been working on translating Final Cut Pro X XML to Final Cut Pro 7 XML as a personal project, because Final Cut Pro X imported XML before it exported XML (during that development cycle). It was a perfectly adequate name and workable icon.Ī little behind the scenes aside. Our code name became the app name when we launched in September 2011, with some minor typographical tricks to make the “to” into a subscript 2. I’m sure you can think of examples of the other type of code name. Another example of this type of code name is Adobe Hue, which was previewed at NAB under its code name Project Candy. Apps generally have code names during development because the name hasn’t been decided on yet or because development is secret and a code name reveals little about the app. Our internal code name for the app was Project Xto7.
We started work on a translation tool for Final Cut Pro X XML to allow translation back to Final Cut Pro 7 XML in the late Summer of 2011. Ideally it would be unique enough that it is easily found via search engines. Ideally it should be easy to remember and relevant to what it does. Naming an app (software application) is never easy. I’d like to explain why we did that as some people have expressed some disappointment in the change.
We recently renamed Xto7 for Final Cut Pro to XtoCC (Creative Cloud). We will let Philip explain all, it is an interesting story: So when it was announced that Assisted Editing had renamed Xto7 to XtoCC, we caught up with Philip Hodgetts and asked him why.
One of the great things about the recent FCPX Creative Summit was the attendance of many of the software writers in the ecosystem.
