I have posted about Editingtools.io before, but he has a bunch of other stuff that is a must read. And I may post another post about Jan Kaiser’s iPhone Cinematic Mode info.
The Rocket Yard, the OWC Blog and Steve Sande has it’s top 20 tips for MacOS Montery. Worth a gander for sure.
I would love to upgrade to Monterey, but so far I have heard only that Adobe Video versions 2021 and 2022 work with it, and the head editor at the company I am working at is still working with 2019. I was actually surprised that 2019 still worked on Big Sur, but it d\id, but I only upgraded to Big Sur very recently.
And it is usually always safer to wait for the .1 released, though it sounds like Monterey is doing pretty well so far, with a few niggles because of it’s built in VPN that screws with some programs.
I have to admit I haven’t been watching the Beta forum or the beta features recently (busy on edit jobs, and not even using 2022, actually the lead editor refuses to move above 2019) but I just saw this at the Beta Forum at Adobe User Voice.
So all Premiere Pro & AE Mogrts will show up in the Graphics tab, and you can use spell check and Search and replace, which is huge! Wow, this is super powerful.
And you can focus on specific tracks, so if you organize like you should…
Now you can double click to CHANGE ANY TEXT!
And Spell Check in 2 places!
My only problem is that I have had issues sharing Mogrts with people, especially when not on the same Adobe Account or sending it manually. but for built in Premiere Graphics this is amazing.
I have wanted a spell checker forever, now we need one After Effects!
And if the other feature this could really use, would be a batch change for graphics styles. I would so love to be able to select multiple text instances and change the style on them all.
This is so disappointing as to really use this footage you will need to decompress it to a constant frame rate. especially disappointing since the footage already takes up much more space and need to re compress it to really use it properly to get it constant frame rate. And you will be losing a generation in compression (I know ProRes can handle it better than HEVC but still).
MacRumors is reporting on the first geekbench reports of the 12th Generation Alder Lake Core i8-12900K 16 core chips, which score 18500 on geekbench vs 12500 for the M1 Pro and M1 Max, though at a much higher power draw.
So about 1.5 times as fast, which means a high Intel would whip the Apple Silicon on Multi-Core performance, though I doubt it’s built in GPU would be faster, though a discrete GPU certainly would.
Jason Snell at SixColors has an article on running shortcuts from the mac command line.
I haven’t gotten to play with shotcuts yet as I haven’t moved to Monterery because the company I am working for still runs Premiere Pro 2019 and it is doubtful that it runs on Monterery and even if it does it will likely be not that stable. Not like I want to be running Premiere Pro 2019 anyway, basically I don’t want to live without the new caption feature when running Premiere Pro.
Ben Lovejoy at 9to5Mac has posted his “MacBook Pro Diary: M1 Max video editing is a breeze, but everyday use impresses me, too“
So far it does look like everyone is pretty blown away by the M1 Max performance, so I can’t wait for an iMac Pro and a MacPro based on Apple Silicon. I do still wish they would allow external GPU’s, but I doubt that is in the future.
Very impressive results, especially since i have an iMac Pro, though I did get the Radeon Pro Vega 64X 16GB which might get a tiny tiny bit more performance.
My hope for the Apple Silicon MacPro keeps growning, though it will certainly be expensive, especially if it is basically 2 M1 Max chips tired together (i know it is more complicated than that).
