watching the opening video.
Am I “sticking my finger in the stream and changing it”? God I hope I am. It sounds transgressive.
that opening video went on for a long time. god forgive me I started to irrationally dislike nearly every talking head in it.
oh, now Shantanyu’s on stage. yaaaayyy.
“advertising is content and content is advertising” so that’s Shantanyu’s first key point.
that really warmed the cockles of my heart. I’m turning it off now.
no wait. – he apparently wants people to see the creative cloud and the marketing cloud as melded into one.
fabulous.
Shantanhya read a ten minute speech in six minutes there. That’s the last time he’ll be willing to do that for a while.
Adobe is a stunningly genuine company, lead by genuine people talking genuinely about all the things that lead them to mass forced subscription.

[Charlie Austin] “[Aindreas Gallagher] “I’d go back to the stupid freeform pixel by pixel movement of clips connected or otherwise – the fact that apple allow the clip to stagger around horizontally and vertically just feels like the stupidest thing.”
I kind of agree, but for a different reason. I’d like it to happen faster, more responsively.
“charlie, baby, do you want the clips to come out of the screen in 3D? because its hard to know where to take that..
as you drag the clip object randomly freeform vertically and horizontally in a photoshop style canvas space, where do you feel the frame iteration is in the move of the clip? I’m trying hard to ask you a fairly serious cognitive question there. I certainly have basic issues with what the clips are doing. nevermind the stupid immaterial connection points animating their position every second. It’s maybe possible you are ignoring some issues here.
it feels like software engineers destroying fundamental time based interaction legibility for the sake of being different. I’m not even kidding here – the point of moving a clip is to object reposition it in time primarily – then maybe layer order secondarily – not have it seesawing all over the place with connection tendrils going crazy – and lets not forget the ten other mecanno things maybe attached to the clip I’m trying to consider . It’s just a joke charlie – that whole insane scenario. all of it was just meaningless stupidity the second apple thought it up.
the X timeline is, in the end, a gigantically rare dead elephant in the room. people will look on its bones for the ages.
so – you know – the argument thread 🙂

[Charlie Austin] “Do me a favor… Learn how to use FCP X. “
I’m not that bad at it charlie – there’s just a lot I fundamentally disagree with – the point is that the things that you say people don’t get, are the points that they fundamentally disagree with in terms of the approach. That’s why I say kool-aid – people who defend the approaches continue to act like other people don’t get something. There’s nothing not to get – its not a Russian doll of comprehension mate. It’s just what it is.
the inspector is ludicrously powerful in terms of audio channel handling, and across multiple timeline instances and that – the CC stuff is basically amazing even with the square CC box, the source skimming deserves a prize, the tagging is a smarter future maybe, but the timeline is a mess to me looking at it – I’m not failing to understand anything – I reject it.
point at issue: its moronic freeform XY jello motion for all clips when moving them, that’s total crass madness for fine detail work – the timeline is outright brain damaged to me.
and to a lot of people. hence the software being a little dead in the water.I’d go back to the stupid freeform pixel by pixel movement of clips connected or otherwise – the fact that apple allow the clip to stagger around horizontally and vertically just feels like the stupidest thing. It doesn’t inform much, but it destroys the nature of sequential frame movement. I personally dislike apple for that basic stupidity.
strongly justified horizontal movement of a VA item until you break over or under the track makes fundamental sense. you guys might all think this elastic playdo XY dragging environment is great fun – but I think (well let’s argue said the thread) you’re all mentally damaged, crazy and you’re all operating a horrible set of timeline rules that pointlessly degrade the basic and key left to right frame based logic in order to throw around ludicrous, ham fisted meccano pieces.
ahem.
so that there is a critique for you bud 🙂

[Jeremy Garchow] “Real time mixed res multicam (4k and 1080) in a 1080 timeline with 18 channels of available audio, a chromakey, with multiple grades, with scale and crop on video layers, two stacked, keyframed, and animated layers of type, all in real time, in full quality (best quality not better performance) SDI to a monitor, using native XAVC MXF media (not ProRes or Proxy). Not one render, background or otherwise, until export. “

[Charlie Austin] “She’s not at all as dumb as she appears.”
…or well maybe say she’s got framed PHDs on the wall, but somehow can’t tie her own shoes at the same time.

well, OP did seem to be asking for an old style argument, and look – we’ve had one.

[Mathieu Ghekiere] “Like others, I missed sync-indicators in the beginning. Now I don’t anymore. “
how do you stop missing sync indicators?

[Charlie Austin] “But as there are no tracks, trying to make sense of it in those terms is a fools errand.”
that is incredibly true Charlie, and there is almost no answer left.
You guys really are where you are. Run with that baby. Run Charlie run 🙂
