Thanks Ty. I am just fooling around. I am a new woodworker that used to be in radio and TV for many years. I am just making videos to be funny. I don’t plan to be an influencer or make money.

I would love the best sound and video quality, but I am going to settle for a while. I have some E2 Evolution Lab pack from 10 years ago. I just want the mic to be a little closer to my face rather that going into the phone.

On another forum, someone suggested running sync sound. That is too much to get into for “having fun” right now. The iPhone 12 shoot a pretty good picture that most of the population is now used to seeing on YouTube.

Considering the Apple may do away with lightning to USB C, can I just use a (before I buy one to test it) 3.5mm to lighting adapter to get sound into the phone. I think the Rx of the E2 Lav pack has the option of using a 3.5 mm cable in case you don’t have an XLR input to your mixer/recording deck.

Thanks.

Somehow I got it to work. I also got it to export everything in .psd format.

Thanks!

I did. I found some info on how to record it, but I keep getting error windows saying it can do certain commands.

Then when tried it again, it is just changing them to .jpeg and not color correcting.

Do you have an article on how to set up an action step by step. The stuff I am finding in chatrooms, etc is vague.

Thanks.

Yes, After some research I figured out what I needed to do. I started with 1080 footage. I am new a PP and thought it had the open timeline like FCP. Anyway I set my initial sequence at 720, but when i imported the clips, the timeline conformed to 1080. I had another clip from a client that was 720 and needed to add it to the existing footage.

I was looking at nesting and found that I could create a nested sequence of 720 and drop in my original created sequence. It worked. I was able to reduce my 1080 clip size by about 30 percent, to become 720. I just copied the first clip’s attributes and pasted them onto all my other 1080 clips.

Everything was now 720 and I was able to continue my workflow. I was asking a question, because I may have allowed my initial sequence to conform to 1080 instead of 720. I know FCP will do that when you drop a clip that isn’t the project’s resolution. I didn’t have the time to set up a new sequence, troubleshoot and lose my first edit.

All is good now. Thanks. I guess I was’t sure how to type the question.

I did do that. I set up my sequence as 720 when I started my session. I just want to know if I can go backwards from 1080 to 720.

Now if I can’t, can I export my current clips and then add everything to a 720 timeline? The edit is finished except for transitions. I don’t know adobe that well and want to know if you can go back to a 720 timeline and then reduce the size of the 1080 clips to match the 720?

Great Thanks. I know this is a PS question, but since you answered my last one:

How do I select a single country? Do I use the lasso tool? Do I add a color to the country then select it? I am looking for ways to do this and am not having any luck. This is a .png file. Do I convert it to a psd file?

Cheers.

I tried the free version to test a clip, and when I converted, I had the same “clicks” in the audio that you get when you try to import this same type of AVCHD into QT X. But, when I moved it into Premier, it liked it.

I thin took the 1 minute clip and took it into premier CC and FCP 3, they both like it, but I had a noise floor I can’t compensate for. There were lav mice running directly into the camera.

I am not convinced this software works. I am on Mavericks. Could it be the freeware version is not the full product? But, I should be able to open the converted file in QT and have it play without the clicks in the audio.

Thanks.

I just bought the juiced out MBP….2.5GHz, High end video card etc. This is also my first SSD. When I get everything loaded, including the adobe suite, I will try a few edits in Premier and see how they compare to my 2009 8 core Mac Pro.

I am going to assume that with the SSD alone, I am going to be able to edit 1080 pretty fast. I also expect it to be faster with AE CC.

Here is a jpeg. I made text and added the CC Sphere filter. I can get the text to rotate, but I can’t get it to go behind the earth. I am really not that good at AE yet, but I can’t seem to get these. I downloaded your plug in, but I don’t know how to replace the source code.

I used “CC circle text” for my text. Anyway, I made my layers 3D, but that is all I can do from there.

Would there be a free template out there that I can use? Or a tutorial I can follow until I get up to speed on AE?

Thank you sir. That worked. AE locked up a few times, but I think things are working now. Now I am tweaking. 🙂
