Amazing how fast they move, adding in AI based trasncription editing and subtitles, a new relighting OFX plug in that works with the color panel and per timeline color management.
The freight train of Davinci Resolve Updates is mind blowing how quickly they add new features and make this program better and more stable.
From Eric Philpott’s article at Adobe Blog.
This is huge and I love that it’s awesome transcription feature is being expanded out of for captions into actual editing.
I will have to see automatic tone mapping in action, I always get footage from different cameras, but I don’t think this will be what I need (I tend to throw the clips in DaVinci and make a LUT that will match them perfectly).
Background Auto Save is exciting, and I might turn it up so it saves more often.
Dragging to select track targets should have been there from the start! I will use that literally every day!
And bulk editing titles in the Timeline is huge, and has been needed since you could see all the Text of titles with the text tool.
And After Effects Properties panel could be a huge game changer, as on a daily basis i get frustrated when duplicating sequences how it doesn’t show the same properties that I was manipulating on the copied layer, but with a properties panel this should be faster, and anything faster I will adopt immediately.
And I really need to do a deep dive in to ACES and OpenColorIO workflows so I can try it out in After Effects.
And select able track mattes usable for multiple layers is pretty awesome, though you could do it by doing it on a matte layer and using it as the matte.
And defaulting colorama to the default color picker to save clicks is another time saver, and I always want time savers.
PVC is always awesome, so getting to hear them talk to all these fantastic editors is well worth it.
My short film The Misadventures of Bear was accepted into it’s 6th film festival, The Sydney Indie Short Festival as a Semi Finalist! WOOOHOOOOO!!!!
Polygon has this article by Tasha Robinson on the formerly HBO shows the Nevers. I really enjoyed what was essentially Joss Whedon’s last show before ti was taken away from him.
I was happy to hear that the episodes were at least getting streamed, but on Tubi.tv it is not normal streaming, where you can select the show and watch it anytime. Instead you have it is being played live as if on a normal tv channel, and has to be found in an awful schedule, and it is aired in blocks without the ability to pause, or as far as I can tell, search to find when it is airing on the WB Watchlist Channel for hours at a time. I don’t mind streaming with commercials for free, but this way is just insanity.
I do really want to see, and might try to figure out how, but this is not a viable way to stream a show.
Always good to see a dropped price, but hope it doesn’t mean these aren’t doing well. As it is such a cool thing.
I have loved Zoic’s work for years, so found this very interesting.
Another great interview from an awesome site.
Another interesting article on using Adobe on the Amazon Prime Video TV show, Somebody I Used To Know. I always use love seeing Adobe used on a project that would normally be AVID.
