Adobe has updated Premiere Pro to October 2023 (24.0)

And you can check out what is new at Adobe.

5x Faster Timeline Drawing could not be more welcome.

New Text-Based Editing Features, including deleting all pauses (I will never use this one), work with multi-channel audio and more control over transcript view. More control is always welcome.

Color Settings with a consolidating of color selections into a single tab. Lets hope this brings a little more of the control that you have in DaVinci Resolve, but I doubt it. Also be nice if they added in a setting to get around the damn quicktime color shift like you can in DaVinci, but I doubt it.

Audio Auto Tagging is welcome I guess, though not something I ever thought of needing. As I always bring things into labeled folders and separate things onto their own timelines, so I guess I am not the target for this.

Effects Manager is to help identify and troubleshoot problem plug-ins, which is good, help in solving issues is always good.

Project Templates for Fast Setup is great, but it needs to also have hard drive folder templates, like you can do in Post Haste. And it should include folders and let you automatically set the renders and the export folders, that would be amazing.

Restore Projects through Recovery Mode. This is awesome, and I hope it works very well.

In the Premiere Pro Beta it now Mirrors the OS directory Structure on Import, FINALLY!

Posted by Francis-Crossman in the Adobe Support Community:

Finally when you drag folders into premier they will match the Finder structure! WHY HASN’T THIS BEEN LIKE THIS FOREVER?!?!??!?!

Previously it would leave out empty folders, folders with 1 item, and now it will import empty bins!

I always want my structure to match, so this is awesome and I wish it was out today in the normal version.

Master the Workflow interviews Film Editor Lisa Churgin on using Adobe Premiere to edit Peter Pan & Wendy

From Master the Workflow.

A 45 minute interview, and I love to see features done in Premiere vs AVID Media Composer.

And her whole history in editing is fantastic to learn about. And cutting on a flatbed (which I haven’t done, only a moviola).

I have watched Peter Pan & Wendy as well, which was OK, but I felt it fell apart more in casting and scripting, because I got no joy from the young Peter Pan and Jude Law is no Jason Isaacs.
