<p>Editing video is tedious enough on its own, but it becomes a whole new world of pain when producers, editors, audio guys, and others are trying to collaborate on a single project.</p><p>That's where First Cut Pro (not to be confused with Final Cut Pro) comes in. The software comes out of Austin, where the company won our TC Meetup + Pitch-off Competition, meaning that the First Cut Pro guys will be ready to roll at TC Disrupt SF in September.</p><p>But what is First Cut Pro?

While he's typing, the video pauses, and once he presses enter, the video resumes.</p><p><a href="http://techcrunch.com/2013/06/09/first-cut-pro-just-made-post-production-collaborative-video-editing-much-less-painful/">Keep reading...</a></p>
