This is AWESOME! Love the format of the show! I love that you limited your explanations in your calls - gave her just enough info to continue exploring and making the discovery herself. Next AE vs. Motion - LOL

🙋♀️ resident guinea pig here! This was so fun, and honestly through that entire experience I was shocked at how easy it was to find my way though the program. Five hours from start to finish, and it’s not like I was racing. So Jenn, thank you for the opportunity!!! Don’t mind me, I’ll just be over here detaching audio and playing with old presets… (If anyone is concerned, the answer is no, I absolutely never wanted that particular audio to see the light of day… hence the delete 😂 Normally in premier, I’d just mute the track)

Non-intimidating. That’s the key. I started from scratch with FCPX when it very first came out and everyone was hating on it. I had zero training and zero editing experience, but self taught with plenty of help from KZbin. Now I make a living from it and love using it every day. Along with Motion, I think it’s the best thing Apple has ever made.

This was the best vs I’ve seen because you get a BTS of the user experience. Most never give you a BTS look, but rather give you a bullet point list of the pros and cons after the experience, which always felt a little biased toward one program over the other. I liked seeing how she struggled, but figured out how to correct herself. This was so much more informative. Thanks.

I started out with FCP when it was first released back in the early 2000s, then they made the switch to the current iteration. I thought for the longest, "this FCPX is a Fisher-Price NLE," and so used PP for a while. My wife and I started a wedding film business back in 2014, and I got so frustrated with how PP deals with previewing footage for cuts, that I decided to give FCPX another try. It made editing long-form video a BREEZE! With a background in motion graphics, I was also a die-hard AE user but decided to start learning Motion so I could make my own templates. Now I use FCPX almost (still have to open up PP from time to time) exclusively for all of my professional work and use Motion a fair bit for animation. Some things I still need AE for, but I always dread having to open Adobe apps, lol.

As someone who’s never used Adobe premier and uses FCP (as an amateur) I still get confused about Library and project etc. From what she was saying, Adobe’s terminology makes much more sense! A project would surely be a whole event/video, including all the assets that you’re going to use and your ‘timeline’ is what you’re creating the finished video on. Why make it more complicated?? 🤯

OMG! This was SO FUN to watch! I've always wondered what Premiere users would do/think with our FCP. More of these please!! Kudos to Jessica!

Now we need to see in a month if she decided to keep trying it out. I think almost anyone that gives FCP a real chance would want to switch to it. You just have to be open minded to the differences.

Back in 2011, I downloaded trials for every NLE except FCP7. In a prior life I was an IT consultant, frequently installing proprietary software. My acid test was, how easy/hard is it to do the basic thing that the software is designed for? When I opened Premiere, it took my half an hour to work out how to do a simple cut. When I launched FCPX, the difference was a shock. Since I had no previous editing experience, I was not carrying the baggage that so many pros had when they encountered it. I bought FCP and have never looked back.

She didn’t delve into key frames obviously since she used the pre made text templates, but when I first switched I couldn’t find the key frames at all. Especially how to adjust the key frames once I created them. I thought that was going to be one of her phone a friend calls.

From a UI/UX design standpoint, I think its safe to say that Final Cut can improve ALOT 🙂

Clever video. Helps a beginner such as myself understand a bit more about FCP from a UI and philosophy perspective. Main takeaway for me, for now: expect to do a lot of right-clicking; and, prepare to learn a lot of keyboard shortcuts.

Cool experiment 🧪.. which actually i’m doing in real life here. I hv been a heavy premier user and pretty good at it. But recently fr some client project work ( i work as a remote video editor from India) .. i hv to learn FCPX. Was really really struggling at first , but after 2 weeks now i am getting good at it .. still lots of figure out. What i will say is that the software is very intelligent, on the other hand premier has more tools . Now already i hv edited 4 client projects on fcpx started learning it fr 2 weeks now. and now i am thinking should i get Apple Motion to use the different envato templates and all .. most frustrating thing is that fcpx still haven’t added ease in - ease out funtion ☹️
