Concerning Speedgrade, is the “Shot Matcher” an extension of the more experimental clip > color space? I feel like I should ask how well it works, within reasonable expectations, if I tried matching two shots that had a color chart in each.

Nice. What about scopes for Premier Pro CS7? Anything new happening with AME, for example support for intro / outro clips, defined clip interprating settings and so forth?

[Erik Lindahl]

Actually – what about proper scopes for ALL apps? Premier, After Effects and Photoshop?

[Erik Lindahl]

Also, what about color management in Premier Pro CS7?

[Tim Kolb]

“Proper” may be a little vague…what is it that Premiere Pro’s scopes need to better for you? (not a challenge…just a question).

Kevin, the entire team did an amazing job with the update, not only listening to the editors needs but engaging the entire community to find out WHY we were asking for the changes. I can honestly say I’ve never had so much communication with a company during development of a product as I have this past year with Adobe.

I know it’s very tough to move the application forward in a way that new users are asking for while also maintaining the tried and true workflow that your loyal users love. I think you’ve done a great job balancing the needs of both communities.

Look forward to seeing you guys next week!

Walter! Have they added a decent media-manager for output of projects now? I know this was a source of minor grief for your facility.

[Erik Lindahl]

They look shocking. Worst scopes I’ve seen in any app. Not sure what more to say about them. Uggly and unflexible. Maybe they are accurate? Still, they hurt my eyes looking at them. They don’t feel like they belong in a modern app from 2013 – maybe some odd editor one would find circa 1997 on Windows 95.

If FCPX has one thing correct and that’s the look of it’s scopes.

Also, the complete suite of image editing apps (Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects, Premier, Prelude, Speedgrade) could use a decent set of solid scopes. One is for validating or comparing images and of course any image-editing / grading / coloring or final output this is vital. It’s quite shocking Photoshop hasn’t seen any improvements in this area during it’s 25-30 years of existence.
