    If you’re looking to keep things simple, I’d recommend Audioengine A2+ speakers. No need for a breakout audio box and multiple inputs.

    Another option is to do your open captions outside of premiere. I suggest that because the captioning in Premiere is clunky and has limited options.

    Amara.org is a great free resource to create closed and open captions. You can make them on the site and then export a .srt file and import that file into a program like Submerge and marry the captions to your video.

    I was referring primarily to the niche programming that I create which is corporate promotional and mini-doc’s that are also used for promotional purposes.

    Each area of programming has classic editing devices that work well within that arena. And it wasn’t all that long ago that dissolves, wipes, flying boxes, animated text and vo’s were a staple of the corporate promotional world as well and thankfully they’re much less popular today.

    [Bill Davis] “I can clearly remember the project in my early 30s where a major lightbulb went off after I realized that I could jettison ALL of my pre-planned voiceover work – and just tell the whole story using ONLY edited interviews.”

    This is less a lightbulb moment and more a result of the fact that nowadays, vo’s are considered a cheesy and much less effective way to tell a visual story.

    vo’s for the most part have been added to a long list of editing devices that audiences have tired of. Dissolves, wipes, flying boxes, animated text and many other items just don’t make the cut anymore and for my money, we’re all better off.

    [Mark Suszko] “There is absolutely room for both techniques in any project”

    I use both methods in every project if you think in terms of building a-rolls as bricklaying. I was taught from the start that the first step in building any piece is to assemble the base or a-roll and then everything else comes after.

    It’s now been 21 years since I began as an editor and my approach to the process remains the same. I always create as strong of an a-roll as possible before moving onto the fun parts of b-roll and finesse.

    This is the best video I’ve ever seen describing what the process of editing is all about:

    Sculpting is what makes an editor an artist.

  • I think one thing that is missing in all of these nonsensical threads debating Apple vs the rest of the world is the notion that the debate itself really doesn’t matter in 2017. It’s primarily a subject relegated to niche forums like this one due to the fact that there’s a variety of options and all of those options are good. Adobe vs Apple vs Blackmagic is really not a competition at all. It’s only a competition to the sales reps of these companies.

    I have no real loyalty to Adobe even though I’m a very happy creative cloud customer. Fifteen years ago I was a very happy Avid editor and then I became a very happy FCP editor. The point is that the tools are irrelevant. It’s the end product that matters. The tool set is just a means to an end and that tool set can change over time.

    And if these silly debates must rage on, can each company’s pricing structure be removed from the equation? The notion of debating a product that is practically free from every company makes no sense.

  • Alex Gollner in the trailer: “If you’re a storyteller, it doesn’t matter what software you use.” Alex kinda says it all. It’s a non-issue.

    Hopefully in the very near future, this workaround won’t be necessary due to the impending arrival of this premiere plugin:
