Meet the Food Dude
Dave Cathey is The Oklahoman’s new food editor, succeeding Sharon Dowell who worked as the newspaper’s main food reporter for decades.
Cathey is bringing a new approach and is launching a video series. I shot his intro in our Studio B last week. He dropped off a tape of his chili making prowess. I combined about 13 minutes of b-roll/kitchen action/complete with barking dogs in the background into a roughly five minute video, using fast motion in FCP at about 450 percent.

Hey Renee – We use Final Cut Pro (FCP) to edit our videos. I changed the speed setting to 450 percent. Basically it was sped up about 4 times faster.
