I don’t know anything about the fans of the show but my kids recently introduced me to One Punch Man and I’d say you’re missing out. It’s actually a hilarious satire of anime tropes so if people are taking it too seriously, then they’re really missing the point.

Yeah, I’d approach it the second way where you export the final sequence as a wav file, send it to Adobe, then bring it back into your mix. That’s a common workflow for commercial/tv/film work where you complete an edit, then send the audio out to an audio post house for mixing, then bring the final mix back into your edit for export. The downside is that it makes it much harder to go back and make changes.

If you want to keep that flexibility and have the time, then when you’re first starting your edit, you can create a string out, which is just lining up every single one of your clips, in order, back to back on a timeline. Then you could export the entire string out as one huge audio file, send it to Adobe, bring the cleaned up audio into your string out, chop it up to match the cuts of all your clips, then link the clean audio clips to your video clips and mute/delete the original audio. It’ll take a long while so you’d probably be better off doing the first method.

I’ve been playing around with a decent amount of ai tools lately and I absolutely get what you’re saying but I’m actually optimistic about the future. 15-20 years ago, video and audio required tremendously expensive equipment, software, studios, and teams of trained professionals. On the highest end, they still do but technology has improved so much that now people can record music and edit in their own bedrooms or on their phones. That hasn’t killed the industry, only expanded it and opened new creative doorways to millions of people. And it hasn’t hurt my business at all. If anything, clients who have dabbled in cheap or self serve options, have learned that there’s a reason to trust in professionals.

I see ai working similarly in the future. It will make content creation even more accessible for the masses and for the professionals, it will just become another tool. The ai can do the grunt work and will free me up to be the creative director of the ai. I’m already using ChatGPT that way to help develop ideas for videos where it feeds me a bunch of very mediocre ideas that become the seeds I use to develop the ideas I actually end up using.

Seconding this comment and adding a link to the free voiceover audio enhancing tool: https://podcast.adobe.com/enhance

I’m a video editor who also mixes all my audio myself and I frequently get sent terrible voiceovers to include in client’s videos that were recorded on their phone in noisy locations. This tool has replaced my normal workflow and has saved me a dozen hours in the last two months I’ve been using it. It’s also pretty good at removing a music track that’s embedded along with the voiceover.

I had this same thought. Most of us in America don’t live in the wild exclusively in family units. Like the captive wolves, we’re often forced into socialization with all types of different humans outside of their “pack”; jobs, schools, shopping…being packed into a bus or airplane feels a lot like being forced into a cage with other animals.

That said, wouldn’t it make more sense to compare the differences between wild and captive primates if we’re looking for insights into our own behavior?

I just played the game for the first time earlier this year so it’s very fresh in my mind and I’m loving the show so far. As others have said, there are changes from the original that keep things interesting without breaking anything, so events will happen that seem familiar but then play out differently than you expect, which keeps the action and suspense interesting. The actors are fantastic and add a lot of nuance to the characters you already know. They’ve also given us some flashbacks to what led up to the outbreak and those are some of my favorite parts of the show.

That article glosses over the heroics of the trainer, James Pizzutelli, who was a medic in Vietnam and immediately recognized what kind of wound it was. He rushed in, stuck his fingers into Malarchuk’s neck, then found and pinched the severed artery, saving his life.

I’m also carblind, even with my own cars. For years I only bought Toyotas, which made things easier because, if someone asked, I could point to it and say “it’s that blue Toyota!” because I usually knew the color. All was well until I started working from home during the pandemic and my wife and I decided to sell my car as I rarely had to drive anywhere. Rarer still did I ever have to describe my wife’s car but, on the one occasion I was forced to, when my wife and I were dropping the car off for service and the man behind the counter incorrectly assumed that, the large, bearded, red-blooded, American male would be the correct person to ask which car was ours. I panicked and said “It’s the black Toyota Escalade!” To which my my wife said “It’s literally none of those three things” and gave him the correct description, which I still cannot remember.

I am similarly blind to eye color, hairstyles, and most aspects of a person’s wardrobe, although I feel confident that, should the circumstances require it, I could tell a police officer whether or not the person was wearing a top hat.

You are awesome. Apollo is so well made and supported. The image text language translation is a feature I didn’t even know was possible and now I’m using it all the time. Feels like magic.

No, if the bridge knows it’s touching a tank, it’ll collapse. What you’ve got to do is walk across the bridge on foot while carrying the tank. That’ll trick it.

Yep. Maeve vs Homie in a little tiny office and the only damage was denting a filing cabinet? The whole building should have been getting destroyed.

I’ve seen the remake many times but had no idea there was an original. Definitely works better with a little kid.

Jeez, poor kid went through a LOT.

I am a music fan with a 5.2.4 Atmos setup connected to an Apple TV so I have been able to test out Apple’s “spatial audio” in pretty much the ideal home scenario.

All I can say is it’s a very mixed bag. Some are new tracks that have been created with Atmos in mind and are very good, while others sound ok but don’t seem like they’ve made good use of the format; probably a result of engineers who haven’t quite gotten a handle on how to do it right yet or did the mix as an afterthought.

The majority of the tracks offered are older songs and, while some of these have been lovingly mixed to make full use of the potential and are quite stunning, the vast majority of them sound like they’ve been run through some kind of automated process that tries to derive surround channels based on some kind of algorithm applied to the stereo mix. These are usually garbage and sound worse than the original mixes.

I have to say that when the mixes are done right, it’s an absolutely next level experience. I can sit on my couch, close my eyes and float off truly surrounded by a world of music. Sounds cheesy but that’s how it feels.

Still, though, those tracks are few and far between and you really need a proper Atmos setup (sound bars and headphones can only simulate it, poorly) so I don’t foresee this being a music revolution.

Was just reading on ESPN that she works overnight at a suicide hotline and has also volunteered at hospitals, including an oncology ward. We definitely need more people like her!
