  Tim Dashwood Joins Apple and Makes All His Plugins Free

  Posted by David Lawrence on April 23, 2017 at 8:59 pm

  Tim Dashwood has joined Apple and is making his excellent suite of 3D and VR plugins free. This seems a similar move on Apple’s part to hiring Wes Plate and is great news for FCPX and Apple users in general. Congratulations Tim and Apple!

  Very cool. Interesting that he makes the plug-ins for FCPX, Motion, Premiere and AE but nothing for Avid.

  [Scott Witthaus] ” Interesting that he makes the plug-ins for FCPX, Motion, Premiere and AE but nothing for Avid.”

  It might be because he distributes his plugins thru FXFactory. AFAIK, FXFactory doesn’t support Avid.

  Or perhaps as Avid is much less in use as an online tool you wouldn’t gain much with offline online VR workflow.

  [David Lawrence] “AFAIK, FXFactory doesn’t support Avid.”

  Exactly.

  This is quite the coup imho. With Apple hiring THE names in their respective fields, first Wes now Tim, I’d say there’s little (as in no) room left for the usual “Apple isn’t serious/doesn’t care about FCP/’pros’!” blather anymore…

  The white balance plug-in in the Editors Essentials is the best I’ve found. Many introduce weird color shifts. This one looks like you white balanced the footage right in the first place. 🙂

  Hmmmmm. I’m not sure that simply publishing the controls for Apple’s own CITemperatureAndTint filter really constitutes cutting-edge plug-in design. And I suspect Tim Dashwood would be the first to agree with that.
