For anyone interested: Pixelmator Pro now supports LUTS. You can import LUTS, or export color adjustments as a LUT. You can even transform LUTS to color adjustments for further editing in Pixelmator Pro (through Machine Learning).

First benchmarks are saying the Macbook Air has the CPU power of the 16″ MBP. In a computer without a fan. Even though the Macbook Air will probably not sustain that performance very long, and the graphical power is bigger in the 16″, that is a very impressive feet of engineering.

I’m very impressed with what Apple showed here. Still doubting between the Macbook Pro or the Air, more leaning towards the Air for my needs. If their claims are true, they are specifying 2-3-4x performance speeds, and almost 2x battery improvements. Those are huge figures to do in one jump.

Could it be we also saw a new version of FCPX? If you…

The Magic Mask feature seems great. With Apple making a lot of noise about the Machine Learning 16 core Neural Processors in the new M1 Macs, and the FCPX Summit next week, I hope they show something similar for FCPX next week.

I have an iPhone 8 Plus that is broken on the front and the back after a couple of falls. I’m still pretty happy with it, but because it’s broken I can’t get a cheap battery replacement so I’ll probably go for a new iPhone 12 Pro Max. (I wanted to go for the small Pro but the camera improvements on the new Max really have me excited).

I worked in…

I’m quite curious to see Apple announce iPhones with Lidar sensors tomorrow in the keynote. It wasn’t a feature that hugely interested me when they premiered it with the iPad Pro, but I think the quality of possible 3D scans will be better if you look at the camera’s that are generally in the iPhones versus iPads.

Isn’t it… a big coincidence…

Yes, I saw it. Looks interesting. They are promising more tutorials with how it works inside FCPX as well, which is something I’m looking forward to even more.

Has anyone seen this? I saw the trailer a couple of weeks ago, and it looks very impressive. I’ve been wanting to have a good 3D tracker for FCPX for a while, I’m not sure if this one also works with all the included effects of FCPX or only with their 3D text-plugins etc.
I bought a lot of products of them, and – unlike Pixelfilm – I’ve always… Read more

I just discovered the free plugin CommandPost adds this to FCPX. According to the developer it has always been built in FCPX, but Apple never ‘enabled it’.

I haven’t played around with Lumafusion a lot, but I love this simple visual representation of a complete overview of the timeline underneath the viewer:

I don’t know if it’s super-functional, but I love how it looks and it’s just very cool to see such a clean overview. Of course that’s possible because it only has a limited amount of tracks on a… Read more
