I just upgraded to 10.3 a couple of days ago and shortly thereafter shared a couple of videos directly to my Vimeo account. No problems that I can detect.

Hmm. Looks like my version of Yosemite is not current enough. I guess I’ll update to Sierra.

[Nick Toth] “Are you using multiple sizes or all the same size?
“They are all the same size. I ended up buying the mFrame plugin from motionvfx. It’s the third, and best, split screen plugin I’ve tried so far.

[Scott Thomas] “Speed Razor”
My first NLE was In-Sync Speed Razor, paired with a Fast DVMaster Pro Firewire card. I was shooting with the Sony VX-1000. It was amazing 🙂

[Dudley Saunders] “Because we ultimately output to HDV, producers figured they could shoot 4K and get a second, blown-up shot out of one piece of media with no loss of resolution (in this case a medium close up and a forehead-to-chin close up). Sounds reasonable, but they didn’t figure out the workflow in advance. They ultimately got a kid to output two versions from Premiere, so we ended up with two pieces of media, but it took forever.
Is anyone else out there doing this? Does anyone have a better workflow?”
Hi, Dudley:
I’m guessing you mean that you are editing an HD 1920×1080 project, not actually mastering to the HDV codec. I shoot in 4K and edit in a 1080 timeline quite often. In a nutshell, I just edit my 4K material scaled to fit the 1080 frame, then when the edits are done, I go back and scale up the clips I want to “punch in” on. This happens right in the timeline––no need to render out an extra piece of media. I edit on FCPX, but it should be a very similar process in Premiere Pro as well. You do need a system that can handle the 4K though!

[Sam Miles] “Was it mounted to the ceiling somehow? Are their any tripods I can rent that will enable me to get this shot continously throughout the shoot?”
Hi, Sam:
This might be of interest to you or someone else who wanders across this thread. I just did a video about the overhead shooting setup I rigged up recently.

Thanks, Oliver and Brett! Most often I shoot my own stuff, so I don’t deal with other framerates!

[Andrew Kimery] “FCP Legend certainly gave you enough rope to hang yourself with”
I really miss that feature.
