PVC on How to move your Adobe Premiere Pro keyboard shortcuts and user settings, most all of them

I didn’t realize that your premiere pro settings were no longer going to sync after Adobe Discontinued Creative Cloud Synced Files. Now I have always had issues with it, because they seem to get fucked up more often than they should, but it is kind of huge that this is going away.

This is going to make Digital Rebellion’s Preference Manager to be back to being a very important part of my workflow, and it should be considered the same for all editors.

I find this interesting as I love the new fade controls in the timeline (I have been using the Beta as it has fixed the timeline issue with an M2 Ultra), though I have still found some issues with tagging short clips, that just refuse to be tagged as dialogue, which is annoying, because the new features are great, but just don’t always work.

This is so cool! BIGFILMS on use ZoeDepth to make any still 3d in After Effects

From BIGFILMS on YouTube.

Here is ZoeDepth online.

This is really so cool! I would love to see a version of this that can run locally on your computer. It isn’t magic, but this really is amazing. You can give some real depth to a still photo, which really gives done zing to your stills!

And the new rage is motion stills, so this is very cool. And this should allow something different than straight cutouts of layers.

I can’t wait until there is a version of this you can run on your own computer, just can’t trust a web site for production timelines. Lets hope this becomes a plugin, or is integrated into After Effects!

This is amazing!

Adobe Update on Premiere Pro issues with M2 Ultra Studio and Multiple Monitors

So I have posted about his one in the past because it really affects me. I hate having the monitors as separate spaces as it messed up just how I use the computer. Now it has been better with newer versions of Premiere and Mac, but is still there, and I do a lot of restarting Premiere to clear it up.

Luckily Adobe Employee Kyle Plumadore has an update:

Hi all – another update:

Apple has identified the source of the bug. I anticipate that it will be fixed in a future MacOS update.  My understanding is that it’s a complex bug to fix, so it may take additional time to get fixed in the OS.

To facilitate a quicker improvement for users, Apple has also provided us with an application side code change which will workaround the bug. This change is available for testing now in the latest Premiere Pro Beta (24.2.0.34) dated 2023-12-01.  I’ve verified it myself but if anyone else experiencing this bug wants to validate that this Beta version (or newer) also solves the problem on their end, that would be helpful. If we don’t find any negative side effects as a result of this workaround, it will be available in a future non-Beta version of Premiere Pro as well.

As I mentioned above, I also expect an eventual MacOS update to resolve this issue. This will be useful for those users who do not wish to update their versions of Premiere Pro.

I will provide another update when I have concrete Premiere Pro (non-beta), or MacOS version numbers which resolve the poor playback when “Displays have separate Spaces” is disabled.

So there is a workaround in the latest Beta, and at least Apple knows what is causing it, I bet they want to fix it before the M3 Ultra comes out.

CUT/DAILY #374 – After Effects for Everyone

After Effects is actually one of the most valuable creative programs to learn as an editor.

CUT DAILY #374 – After Effects for Everyone

It is so true, every editor should know After Effects. Honestly I mostly don’t even consider doing any graphics in my NLE and just jump into after effects, but I have also been using it for well over 20 years now, and am always learning something new. So spend sone time and learn something new.
