[Scott Witthaus] “Allow Events to be grouped in folders”

YES! There’s already a Smart Collections folder at the root of the library. They need to expand that to include folders for events!

And I’d love to be able to pin an event (preferably in a different pane), so when I click on a different event I can still access the original one without having to Shift+Click them all. Tabbed events would be great, actually. One pane, pin the tabs so they stay open.

For me: Motion.

A substantial update to motion is what fcpx need.

[Tangier Clarke]

Yep. I sent the full list. Had to retype though and send multiple feedback submissions since the field space limits how much one can send.

[Eric Santiago]

I have a few things that I would like fixed.

But on a positive note, just had to deal with an 8 plus hour EVA-1 shoot and editor needs in it on Premiere.
I like FCPX workflow for handling Proxy even as an afterthought.
Premiere is a bit too many steps and is giving me grief when using an Avid DNxIO.
Oh well, can’t win em all.

[Greg Janza]

fwiw, whenever possible it’s definitely helps to eliminate proxies from your workflow.

Here is my wish list:
Built in mask tracking for color grading
Hold and more ease options for keyframes
Seperate colors for video and audio when video has attached audio
Ability to sort events in the order of your choice
*KeyFlow Pro allows to you to sort projects or groups as you please
Role mixer
Better integration with Motion
Export individual clips from the timeline without needing a third party tool
Email alerts when a project is finished exporting or rendering
