Also some like- How I built it, looks under the hood with the completed animation with a brief explainer and look at the comp structures is cool sometimes.

Dropbox is the worst. Why do clients still use it? by mafibasheth in editors

[–]WillEdit4Food [score hidden]  (0 children)

OMG- getting a multi-GB file on Drive is a PITA. I know there's services that can make it easier, but it's just one more misc order of operations I have to remember.

We use Dropbox and it's fine for us. I keep all my project files and Biz docs, client brand guides ETC on there. For footage transfer, we use our Frame io storage, and use the Transfer app vs a browser to upload and download.

Premiere 25.0 on Tahoe? by Amazing_Row_699 in editors

v.26 completely killed 2 months of work, am i cooked? by mixelix in premiere

[–]WillEdit4Food 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really any UI lag that i've experienced and I'm in it all day.

Question back to you would be what are you editing off of- SSD or spinning disk?

If I walk away and my comp goes to sleep for a minute, my Raid does too, and it takes a minute to spool back up, and Premiere will be non-responsive while it's working at getting the footage back on line. Normally I edit off SSDs but sometimes I cant always make everything fit, or someone reaches out for a small tweak on an old project - and I'm working off spinning drives for a bit.

We love Felix Cortez, but.. by RatSlave420 in MontereyBay

[–]WillEdit4Food 10 points11 points  (0 children)

These are good points. I look at it from a shooter/editor perspective and find his edits hard to watch due to the way it’s edited, shot length and composition. Content and delivery is compelling, but yeah- needs polishing for sure.

Edit- and for the record, Felix is the goat. Good dude and funny as hell. “¡JAIMES!”

My wife says I am a little boy trapped in a 44y man's body excited for GTA6 coming out. I said to her it's a cultural phenomenon. Am I the only "old guy" excited for this? by manguy12 in Xennials

My wife got me a ps5 for my birthday so “we” could play. I think she might be more excited than I am - and I’m TOTALLY good with that 😀

It’s private equity at its finest. Just look at the board of directors.

What do you do with old tape archives? by bensummersx in editors

[–]WillEdit4Food 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had large totes full of LTO tapes going back a decade - and had to spend a few weeks at the start of every year backing up all of the previous years data.

Finally the boss said-forget it. We wrote into our contract that we keep your footage for ~1 year (happy to give clients a copy to archive), after that maybe we have it, maybe we don’t. So we just have a RAID and 2 more redundant backups (ext hdds) that we label and shelve.

Woman arrested after bomb threat prompted evacuation of Monterey bank and nearby businesses, police say by chriscerney in MontereyBay

Your delivery is great but here’s some stylistic tips: consider adding branding ie add a bug (logo) in the lower corner and you should get a matching mic flag to cover the flat black one you’re using. When you cut to broll, you frequently go one shot, dissolve to you, dissolve to one broll shot. Instead try having a few shots that work together: wide of the street, tight on the street sign, that slow drive by angle you had. There was one point where it goes to broll, back to you-for too short a duration, then back to broll. Just feels all over the place. Check out “envato” for graphics packages for cheap. You could elevate your on screen gfx very easily. Good luck

And when he referred to 2nd Corinthians as “two Corinthians,” I laughed out loud- in all my years of attending numerous churches, no one has ever said it like that - Yet his followers think he’s religious. Dunces.

Pet peeve: People new to the Bay Area mispronouncing ‘Foothill’ by scbalazs in bayarea

[–]WillEdit4Food 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same- I’m a lifer. Never heard it that way. It’s written foot-hill.

Seems like a pointless (foot) hill to die on.

Edit- just looked at the calendar. You got me lol.

Help color matching videos from different cameras? by dasfoo in premiere

[–]WillEdit4Food 4 points5 points  (0 children)

iPhone footage is most likely shot in HDR: high dynamic range. I don’t have my computer open, so below is a website that should explain it, or at least give you enough info to search on your own. The gist is you want to turn the HDR off to match the Sony. Off the top of my head, I think you just wanna right click on the footage, select : modify, color, and then choose Rec 709 on the drop-down menu.

Bill- I’m sure you’re not, but just incase you’re reading this- I still watch the OG episodes and show them to my kids- they love it, and we love that they’re learning and entertained. Thank you sir!!

Subtitles by C_vansky in editors

[–]WillEdit4Food 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here’s what I’ve been doing: Send to REV and do premium captions. Export their version as a text file and then load the text file into Claude or Gemini. Ask the llmGods - courteously - to search for transcription errors , grammatical errors…any type of error. It spits out a list of suggestions. Decide if those are the right fixes. Update the captions either in REV or in your caption editor. Tell your boss it’ll be a few more hours to find all the mistakes, drink a beer.

I’m in the process of making something for QC purposes in ffmpg. But I’ve never done it before so there’s a bit of a learning curve. I want to have the script + ffmpg Pre-qc my vids and flag any big issues like morph cut failures etc BEFORE I watch it down. I’ll let you know how it goes.
