I’ve spent the last hour in the places I go for help.  The forums and websites where the pros teach.  And it looks grim.

I can’t import layered photoshop files from graphic designers and animate them?  I can’t assign tracks, to keep the voiceover separate from music or dialogue…  so I can’t send it out to an audio engineer for mixing?  I can’t direct the footage to a particular drive?  I can’t reconnect it?  I can’t send my project file to an online house for finishing?  Or to my client for archiving?  Or to my students for teaching?

I can’t collaborate.  That’s a problem.

and it seems like just the beginning of my problems.

Change is hard, I know.  I’m scared.  Give me a minute.
