About me:

My name is Ana, one of TÉPCOM´s Editoras. Like all of the Editoras, I love to edit both SD (Standard Definition) and HD (High Definition). My body is a MacPro, Xeon Quad and my video heart is the Kona 3.

Although everything is customizable,
here are my standard specs:

  • MacPro Xeon Quad with 2.66GHz, 2GB of RAM (installed symmetrically), and Apple's standard graphic card
  • Kona 3
  • T-SATA 1TB, with controller card
  • UPS
  • Spanish ISO or USA keyboard
  • Mouse or trackball
  • Multilingual MacOS 10.4.8, y optimized for video
  • Multilingual iLife 06 set: iDVD, GarageBand, iMovie, iPhoto, iWeb
  • 1-year international warranty on Apple items
  • Allan Tépper's: HD Cheatsheet (Castilian/English)
  • Final Cut Studio 5.1.2 (Final Cut Pro, CinemaTools, DVD Studio Pro, LiveType, Motion, Soundtrack Pro)
