[Oliver Peters] “The people on the inside tell you that it’s just one department or one unit or one show. “
I for one just happen to work with various major as well as smaller European broadcasters AND deal with many production facilities in four countries, teach at a collage (where the students do a parallel three year apprenticeship at various facilities) AND at a university. The apprentices are at over TWO HUNDRED different facilities, from small to big. Of which — and I’ve asked — maybe TEN actually still have an Avid of some sorts at their facility (almost none above v6 btw) and of those maybe two actually use it in production, as opposed to just keeping it around for legacy projects. The schools themselves? One dropped Avid two years ago (after being mandatory for many years), the other is dropping it next year. Because A) none of the relevant employers use it B) it’s a complete nightmare support-wise and C) a bad joke financially compared to any and everyone else.
If someone wants to think a company that was years behind the most recent key technical developments in video and isn’t even worth one FOURTH what it was a mere two years ago (one TENTH of about ten years ago), is doing just dandy, is on the up and coming and should be fine for years to come… wow. Certainly not a horse I would personally bet on.
[Neil Goodman] “Whats your point?”
Re-read. It followed quite clearly.
[Neil Goodman] “I apologize for choosing to base my career in a major market. I wont let it happen again. “
????????♂️… speaking of childish. And again, you still consider the Hollywood editing market a major one. I’d say the ivory tower could not be built any higher.

[Neil Goodman] “If it is your goal to work on tv, film, trailers, and commercials than its a no brainer to learn the software.”
????????
Well gee… can I guess? You work in southern CA… with Avid? ???? Because only someone in that setting could make such a painfully solipsistic claim and think it’s true, if by “the software” you actually mean Avid MC. Lite or otherwise.[Oliver Peters] “Most worldwide TV and film production. News operations. College film programs. Certainly not exclusively Avid by any means, but a key player. “
Oh please. Americans speaking for the rest of the world. Again. ???? Can I guess how many of you have actually ever edited professionally outside of your own state, let alone city? I won’t even bother asking country…

Waaaaaaay too little, waaaaaay too late if you ask me.
Even iMovie is upwards compatible (with zero export dance, just a simple menu point!) and can easily edit 4K natively, never mind all the other free options that offer even more. So if you’re going to do something like this (especially YEARS too late), then it better be a doozy or AT LEAST on par with the competition, whatever you think that may be. And I personally don’t buy the whole “It took so long because it’s SO hard to do!” thing. Nothing other than their “super-pro” arrogance kept them from doing it earlier.
Either way, I say they’re still screwed. Nice try though. The last rearing of a dead NLE from where I stand.
Seriously… what motivation could anyone outside of the existing, minuscule Avid market have to get going on this? How is this anything but a (failed, if you know what you’re looking at) PR vehicle?

Certainly nothing you’ll achieve convincingly with Motion of all things. You’ll want to look into a 3D package of sorts.
But then… why not simply do it practical??

[greg janza] “The scribeomatic plugin looks cumbersome and slow”
You caught that it’s a super early BETA, right? Hardly something to judge a (nonexistent) final by, let alone make any sort of no-nonsense value assessment.

[Michael Phillips] “Another solution to consider:”
I’d say that’s the app greg was referring to, yes.
And then there’s this as well…

… both of which are of course not out yet.

It couldn’t actually be simpler. You move the “Title Background” layer up by the desired amount. Since whatever it is you do to that layer (animation, scale, filter, whatever) is later done with whatever layer(s) is (are) below it in FCP.

If I recall correctly, then someone in my Motion FB-group built a script of sorts that does this for names in titles, so essentially the same thing. Unfortunately I can’t find it off the bat. You might want to try just asking there: https://www.facebook.com/groups/apple.motion/
There’s certainly no way with just the onboard toolset.
