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.

Jonny Elwyn on Matching 2 different Cameras Using Cinematch

Jonny Elwyn has an excellent article on using Cinematch to match 2 different Cameras. And you can use his Promo Code at Cinematch for the $125 Plug in (for either Premiere, DaVinci or FCP or $174 as a Bundle).

This is another extensive article and well worth a read.

I would love this tech, since the company I have been working for seems to use 2 different cameras always, and different settings every time, but getting info is like pulling teeth, and the EXIF route seems more difficult than just throwing it in Resolve and fixing it by eye, maybe not as well matched, but visually matched.

I do really like the idea of this match, but also they don’t have my DJI Pocket 2 in here, which would be my second camera most of the time.

Premiere Pro Beta: New ‘Settings’ tab in the Lumetri Color Panel

On the Adobe Support Community Beta Page, we can see the new Lumetri Color Settings Tab (Hurrah).

We now have Input Color Space, Working Color Space and Display Color Space. Still kind of wish it had an ouput color space like in DaVinci Resolve, but will have to see how it works.

Still nothing like Rec 709A to deal with the Apple Color Shift issue though, and it doesn’t sound like they will touch on that.

Seriously Apple $3000 more for an equivalently loaded Mac Pro over Mac Studio? WTF!

So the WWDC is over, and the VisionPro glasses cost $3500, WTF! But even worse is the price difference on the MacPro vs the MacStudio.

So here is the Mac Studio almost fully loaded, except only 4TB hard drive instead of a possible 8 TB.

And here is the MacPro for 10,599!

You have to be kidding. I do want expansion, but at the price, is it really worth it? Looks like a Mac Studio is in my future.

Apple Fooled everyone and released a new MacPro and Updated the Mac Studio to M2 Ultra as well

So in the last week it started to look like the Mac Studio would get updated with M2 and the M2 Utlra, and it did, but Apple also released the Mac Pro with M2 Ultra, which seems to have the addition of PCI Slots and 2 extra thunderbolt ports.

I have needed a new Mac for a while as my iMac Pro is starting to show it’s age (and inability to clean it out), so one of these is in my Future, but which one, I don’t currently know. I need to look at the pages on the Mac Pro once I the web site gets updated after WWDC.

You can follow the WWDC Keynotes at MacRumors.

2 Extra Thunderbolt Ports and 2 HDI ports is great, though I wish there were more thunderbolt and USB ports.
