Hi Everyone, I've updated to CC2020 from 2018 and am trying out the new Essential Sound features, in particular the auto-ducking. I'm wondering if there is some sort of way to offset the keyframes that Premiere generates, apart from doing it manually for every single keyframe. At the moment...

Hi Everyone, Just curious what the current situation is with editing CRM in Adobe Premiere Pro on a PC? The most recent info I can find is that Adobe was looking into a bug fix for laggy playback on PC's as of about four months ago. Does anybody know if this has been fixed in CC2020? And on...

Hi All, I'm having some troubles editing footage shot with a DJI Phantom 4 Pro at 4K in h.264. It is barely able to play back in Premiere Pro (CC2018 on Windows 7, but I've also had the problem with a fully spec'd 2017 Model iMac Pro), even when dropping the preview resolution down to 1/16th...

Hi All, Just wondering what people are currently using as a standard zoom for s35 sensors? It seems to be one section of the market that has had very little (or NO) development since the 7D came out. I've been shooting on FF (or with speedboosters) for the past few years and have been using...

Hi all, I'm trying to install the newest version of Premiere Pro alongside my current CC2018 version. However I cannot find the "keep older versions" checkbox anywhere in the CC App. If I click on the update, it immediately starts downloading/installing the new version. There is no dialogue...

Here's a quick cut I did for instagram of a lifestyle/travel series I've been shooting with the D850. I like the image, but it's certainly not without it's challenges. This was all shot with the Nikon Flat profile and given a really quick contrast bump (the whole thing was cut in about 1hr...

I'm in the process of putting together a new website. I'd love to see what styles everyone else has for their websites if you're able to share, or otherwise get your tips. I do end-to-end production (often hiring other freelancers) as well as being a freelance cam-op & editor, so am...

Just wondering if anybody out there is using Wooden Camera's zip box system? I've got a six week shoot coming up that will all be shot on DSLR (due to sponsor obligations... ugh) with OEM photo lenses. This rules out rail mounted matte boxes because the zooms will bump into the filters...

Hi All, I've been googling this and reading the manual online but still a bit confused about this. Am I correct that in 120fps mode you are recording 10-bit 422, but in 240fps you are limited to 8-bit 420?

Hi All, As most of you know, Premiere has trouble handling superwhites and a lot of footage requires the video output range to be brought down from 0-255 to 0-235 using the "Fast Color Corrector" effect. This was one of the only effects that could actually recover the lost superwhite detail so...

Hi all, I've had a call from one of my big clients, and due to some possible sponsorships, they might be required to shoot everything on Nikon cameras moving forward (they do print & web as well as video/tv so it makes sense in the broader context... just not really for video!). It's been a...

The FS700 will do me just fine for this year, I think. Here's a frame grab from a shoot yesterday. Inside a cave, underneath a waterfall, on a rainy day, no lights or modifiers (wish I'd had a bit of bounce, but no budget for an assistant!). Any time I think about upgrading I realise there is...

Just curious what every has done with all of their original C100's? Recently I moved to a rural area which saw my business model change. Most of the local jobs I'm shooting don't require all the bells & whistles that my fully rigged A-cam has, and I'm thinking of adding something lighter &...

Hi All, Just wondering if anybody has any experience with the Libec LX10? I'm having a lot of trouble finding any reviews about it online. I'm looking to upgrade my tripod, as my rig has grown in weight a lot since I added a Shogun Inferno. My rig is probably 20lb fully loaded, and I've been...

Hi All, I've seen methodology for solving the below problem here and on other forums before, but can't find anything with the search function here or on Google - I suspect as a result of me not using the correct keywords. I've got a background song with vocals which I am trying to mix...
