Mike Thorton has an extensive article AAF and OMFs – Post Audio Export Panel On the Good, the Bad and The Ugly. It goes pretty into depth, and I know there have been a lot of issues with AAF’s in the past, but I think most of them have to do with the whole Premiere Pro and linked clips completely breaking AAF export.
PVC again for the win, damn this is a great site.
Nick Lear has an awesome article on using an iPhone 13 as a B Cam and the pitfalls it entails and how he got it to work. And the things you don’t realize, like yes you can and should shoot with ProRES, but if you do you can’t shoot in LOG in Filmic Pro and the possibility of using Cinematch to help with balancing.
It’s features include:
I love that it lets you go into an installer and just extract what you want from it. This is such a powerful tool for $20.00 and I have owned various versions for years.

I still am trying to wrap my head around the fact that they Shot the film on ARRI Alexa LF for the most part, then color graded in DaVinci Resolve, then scanned back to 35 mm film and then scanned back for grading. Which is to say at the least an incredibly expensive process. And how did it integrate with FX, did they do the scan first or after effects were added?
Tim Hardwick at MacRumors has a great article on MacOS Monterey 40 Tips, Tricks, and Features You Might Have Missed. Well worth reading.
This is an article on the design firm Perception that is the go to company for designing futuristic user experiences. They use Cinema 4D and After Effects, which are already integrated.
Chance Miller is saying that TSMC begins pilot program of 3nm chips, could be used in 2023 iPhones and Macs.
This will be huge for Macs if it happens, because this means more efficiency for the same power wattage and more efficiency, and though it won’t be till 2023, it could be major for the new Pro Macs with smaller chips making less heat, since the likely multiples of the M1 Max and M1 Pro will certainly create more heat.
Happy New Year, hope you all had a great weekend. I will start posting again on Monday!
