Pixelmator Pro | BIG NEWS FOR FCP AND MOTION USERS!

[@smoofvfx2911]

Love to see more tutorials for Pixelmator Pro! I've been using it for YEARS but I feel I've only scratched the surface. One thing I'd love to see is a GIF making system within Pixelmator with transparent backgrounds for things like alerts on Twitch and such (If it doesn't have it already and I just don't know how)

[@IainAnderson]

Yes - you can export to animated GIF with clean transparent edges in the new release of Pixelmator Pro.

[@hoagy_ytfc]

Looks like a great update, and YES, I'd love to see more videos integrating outside tools with FPX/Motion, particularly Pixelmator Pro.

[@LourensVideo]

Yes please, I need tutorials. I've bought Pixelmator Pro a while ago but neve used it.

[@dreambodyclub]

that was the most eye-opening video about Pixelmator Pro & FCP & Motion! Thank you so much, going to research what else you've shown about this trio 😃

[@rlbink2498]

I love Pixelmator Pro! I own the entire Affinity Suite (both versions), but my go to for quick edits, layouts and thumbnails for my commercial work is ALWAYS Pixelmator Pro! A delight to use, very powerful and now with video. Here’s hoping that the background removal for videos becomes a thing in Pixelmator, if it isn’t already. Thank you Jenn for all that you teach and do! You are amazing!

[@roxville]

Yeah, unfortunately, it does not have background removal for video layers. Not yet, anyway. Depending on your video frame rate, it would need to do it to 24-60fps.

[@Dronebotworkshop]

First I'd like to thank you for reintroducing me to Pixelmator Pro - I had tried a trial many versions back but never pursued it after that. The ability to edit video and create LUTs that you illustrated sold me, so I just purchased it. Second, after I downloaded it, I tried it out on a 4K clip I had filmed with my Panasonic Lumix S5. The color adjustments and LUT export worked great, but I did notice that the sound was out of sync with the video (slightly delayed). It didn't interfere with creating a test LUT, but I wondered if this was a common issue? Not a big deal, but it surprised me. Is anyone else experiencing this?

[@seaniethemick]

What a natural teacher and presenter. Great ideas, great delivery, love your stuff!

[@jean_mollycutpurse_winchester]

What a game changer! Why you only have 13K subs confuses me.

[@hkiceman001]

Excellent, Jenn.. can you tell me more about this Pixelmator Pro? Will you have more tutorials later ? thanks a lot

[@MusicianParadise]

Yes , please, more tutorials for Pixelmator Pro!

[@adamtinkers]

Wow! As a new video editor this got me super excited. Thanks for the great information, and yes, more information on Pixelmator would be awesome. Thanks.

[@xtracredit]

Thanks for the summary video on the latest update. I would love to see more Pixelmator Pro tutorial videos!

[@Richard_Broom_Photography]

...and yes please, more Pixelmator pro tutorials would be really excellent. Thank you from Scotland!!!

[@maryharsh]

I LOVE Pixelmator Pro and have been using it since upgrading from the original Pixelmator some time ago. I love your tutorials and have enjoyed the few Pixelmator Pro videos you've created. I'd absolutely enjoy MORE!!! I pretty much learn by doing, and I've learned a lot about the software. But I am always wanting to learn what I don't know. Case in point, I had no knowledge of Apple Motion before catching your videos about Motion after watching a Pixelmator Pro tutorial the other day. Now, I want to get Motion and play around with it. Makes me wish I'd found you a long time ago!!! Thanks for all you do to share your tips and tricks!

[@TheEmporiumOutdoors]

Just bought it Jenn as I can see how this will definitely help me with producing videos 👍 I'd love to see a "how to" with pixelmator and motion to create nice speech bubbles, as the FCPX ones are a little flat and boring 🤔

[@stanc846]

Yes, would be grateful to see more vid on Pixelmator Pro

[@karlguiolet]

Waouh I've just discovered your channel!!! That's greattt Yes I want more of Pixelmator and apple motion please.

[@RobinTFH]

Hi Jenn. That's very useful. Thankyou. I am new to working with Pixelmator Pro and FCP with Motion, having upgraded to them in the past few months. I have also invested in the Serif Affinity suite.and together I am taking my publishing business to a whole new level. I haven't yet got my head around Motion, but all in good time! Compared to working with iMovie with Pages, Keynote, and Graphic Converter (still a very useful and capable combination, of course), there is definitely a lot to learn but I am finding the results more than worth the effort. So, in answer to your question, yes please!

[@Master-Grammar]

I love PixelMator Pro, it is the best tool I have besides Final Cut Pro. It is amazing for photography, and recently, it has become my go-to photo editor. I bought Pixelmator years ago, upgraded to the Pro version a couple of years ago, and hadn't really used it all that much. But to be honest with you, this app is better than any other. I use Lightroom now simply as a cloud storage service and edit everything with Pixelmator Pro.

[@djleechcraft]

Same

[@CosBar_]

You should try using Apple Photos as a cloud storage service. In Apple Photos you can have different libraries. One you can use for your personal photos and another for work.

[@SebastianCristanchoYT]

Listen. I know a lot about FCPX, been editing on it for idk 10+ years or something. I use this app professionally every single day and I’m so tired of watching tutorials because I get my hopes up that I’ll learn something new and I seldom do. This channel, is one of the only channels that somehow always amazes me I cannot believe nobody has put me onto Pixelmator like WHAT!? I’m buying this app ASAP. You are actually so cool. Thank you for the tip!!

[@JennJagerPro]

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to write such a nice note.

[@remektekmedia6641]

More PLEASE! Thank you.

[@CesarGamino]

I just started using Pixelmator Pro this year and since you're my fav onlin teacher, YES PLEASE!

[@MrOliver1444]

So sweet the miaw, yes, please more Pixelmator pro tutorials.

[@jweaks]

Big fan of the Pixelmator team and their vision for years now. Love your vids Jenn, and only remember you mentioning Pixelmator Pro once. :) Glad to have you on the winning side. Hehe.

[@smahood]

Would love to see you do more tutorials specifically on Pixelmator. You’re great!

[@VideoTutors]

Please more Pixelmator videos - Thanks Jenn - very clear and concise

[@oldmanhulk]

I used to use Final Cut, Motion, Photoshop and Illustrator for video production. Pixelmator Pro does the vast majority of what I need from PS and AI for one low price. And, no subscription! Plus, it has its own unique capabilities and feels like a true companion to Motion and FCP.

[@GarthShaner]

Excellent stuff, Jenn! More Pixelmator to Motion tutorials, please!

[@Blueskyver]

Love your enthusiasm. I have Pixelmator Pro and going to check it, to use with iMovie. And yes, more tutorials will be very welcome. I subbed. Greetings from Montreal, Canada.

[@4k-stream682]

Hi Jenn, great videos. Please make one for the complete HDR workflow: starting with iPhone 14 or GH6, via Pixelmator Pro via Motion to FCPX and distribution using KZbin. I see more and more HDR videos on KZbin...

[@FromShetoMe]

Yes, please! More tutorials.

[@JenniferKlinger]

Love your Pixelmator / Motion ideas

[@michaelsviewtube]

Love to see more tutorials for Pixelmator Pro!

[@brentinjapan]

Video idea: I don’t know if it’s only me, but I’m sure a lot of amateur KZbinrs would like to make logos, watermarks, like and subscribe animations, intro and outro transitions WITHOUT buying and learning Motion, so maybe some simple Pixelmator direct to FCP ideas would be cool, if you haven’t done that already. You could do a with Motion option and without Motion option? Anyway, thanks for the video. Very helpful and well done. Quick pace without losing me.

[@Copaindesmontres]

Wow thank you, awesome summary. I will try the lut feature

[@mcnaughtsontour]

Good video Jenn. I'd like to see more tutorials on Pixelmator Pro please.

[@robschannel7519]

Yes, more tutorials on Pixelmator Pro please!

[@mkteku]

This was useful and slick. How do Davinci's built in features compare, I wonder? I shall investigate this weekend. Cheers

[@hartmanscott]

This is really cool stuff. Particularly the templates, when pressed for time and needing a quick "Look" for clients.

[@Onlinepmcourses]

Yes please, more PP + FCP vids

[@chrisronan]

You had me at “LUT”

[@comedianjamie]

exactly

[@jeanduvar4810]

Thank you so very for this video. So cool to have such apps for our Macs... By the way, I have kind of a challenge to suggest for Motion.... a title project... where can I get in touch please ? Regards :-)

[@oblocals]

Just Subscribed because I’d love to see more tutorials on Pixelmator Pro and Motion

[@immaginativi]

yesss more video for Pixelmator Pro. Thanks Jen ❤

[@TimGonzalez]

Hi! Yes more Pixelmator Pro tutorials would be fabulous. I’m a recovering photographer and been weening myself off of Photoshop.

[@videotipsandtricks]

Я обожнюю Pixelmator! Дякую вам за відео!

[@TheTraveler101]

Newbie here...Thank you Jenn, Could you also share a tutorial on how one might create a logo within Pixelmator?

[@KetherWesak]

Hello 😊 great video as always. What is the features of adobe ilustrator that you won’t find in pixelmator? And btw is there software that performs better after effects?

[@dougmorato]

Yes. We are. Please, more tutorials! You such a great job 👏

[@peterpayne2219]

Great video, I’m a recent convert to Pixelmator pro. One of the program is, it’s a single purchase.

[@boutthere3374]

I use affinity and pixalmator but most of the time I grab pixalmator first and can usually get done what I need. This new update really improves pixalmators versatility for motion/FCP. Wonder how long before apple buys it. Cheers.

[@MichelBarbaro]

Great! Yes, more Pixelmator Pro videos, please!

[@ThisisDigitalden]

Fabulous, this is awesome tutorials but most of all I love the enthusiasm and your style of sharing content here ! Subscribed way back and so glad I did ! Thanks 🙏

[@FrancoisTutos]

Another great tutoriel Jenn! 🌟 Can you import a vidéo, colour grade it disabling sound and export it in mp4? If that's the case, I won't need to use FCPX anymore to work on my stock footage and that would be ace as pixelmator Pro looks pretty intuitive for colour grading.

[@donaleekennedy5548]

Yes, more please.... great help. Thanks

[@JPFSportsMedia]

Love the new updates - great video explaining the new features, have just subscribed. 😀

[@Tratwosanna]

Thanks❤ a lot, so useful. Awaiting more Pixelmator tutorials 🛠️ please.

[@frankleemorris2431]

sure, sounds great. used photoshop for years but pixelmator's update and FCPX intergration looks exciting! thanks jenn for the overview!:-)

[@glenna.fitzgerald782]

More, more, more PixelMator videos please!

[@Richard_Broom_Photography]

Another excellent video. Thank you for the update.

[@barbocovers]

one cool thing they could add would be to make a Pixelmator Pro "final cut plugin" you could install, and make your corrections directly within final cut and not have to deal with exporting luts

[@Whaever_1981]

Does Pixelmator Pro still offer features that Motion doesn't in 2024? Do you still use it? Thank you for the great video and content!! :D

[@MikeBeltracchi]

Yes - more Pixelmator tutorials!

[@DavidHerscher]

I learned on adobe, and have really struggled to like Pixelmator. I still can't say that I think that it's anywhere near as "good", as photoshop. However, its price and lack of a forced subscription model are enough to keep my adobe sub cancelled forever. Tutorials like this really help a lot in easing the pain of fighting with this app, thanks!

[@carlosprovyrivera8522]

Awesome overview! More Pixelmator videos please. Question: in your overview you showed the 'remove background' option in a fish photo. Does the new video enhancements have the same functionality? Can I replace the background in a video - sort of green screen on steroids? Thx!

[@mdturnerinoz]

Yes, please, more on PP would be appreciated.

[@TeddyLeppard]

And yes, I'd like to see more examples of things you can do with this software.

[@micheltheodorou]

Great video Jenn i like the way you explain 👏

[@frederickjackson7877]

Hi Jenn, does Pixelmator offer any improvements for Masking / Rotoscoping and removing photo backgrounds in Motion 5?

[@drzigzag8985]

Nice ❤️ that something I hoping for an needed wow

[@ClassicCyclingCC]

Nice and thanks for the video but I personally prefer an integrated solution to color grading like Color Finale.

[@themarksmith]

Useful stuff, thank you!

[@yankee-in-london]

so if you bring in a shape as SVG or an illustrator file, does FCP not recognize it as a vector with all the points preserved?

[@ronaldblanchard2151]

I enjoy your tutorials. Very informative and itd so easy. Thks

[@micheltheodorou]

YES Jenn more tutorials

[@sife9716]

Yes we need more videos for pixelmator

[@carlbellamy2174]

Yes, please for some FCPX/Motion integration tutorials.😊

[@marzvrover]

I would love to see a start to end sample project with how you work between all these different apps

[@marvanwr7151]

i would love to see video tutorials involving the new PM update and how it ties in with the ecosystem

[@kobyaw]

Informative content. Love it!!!

[@RalfDilger_FILM]

more tutorials with pixelmator pro would be nice!

[@UltraKryptonian]

This was very informative and I like the fact you can import video files. But, I have a few questions concerning that ability. Can you paint or draw on top of individual video frames? Also, can you change colors of individual objects within the video (i.e. make an Apple purple in color)? Thanks!

[@summarity]

There are big opportunities for Pixelmator to become a great creative grading tool, however it needs all the standard scopes to really shine

[@CharlesKSmith-zb5mq]

How close is pixel actor pro drawing tools to Corel draw? In my work life, I used Corel/AutoCad to develop vector graphics, but can not justify the expense. Looking for an alternative.

[@cpl5000]

Is there a way to apply a blur to the bokeh effects layer only? When I apply it to the same layer, it blurs every layer of the photo. When I apply the blur to the layer above the bokeh layer and apply a clipping mask, it still blurs the whole photo. I'd love to blur the native bokeh affect...without blurring any other layers.

[@QA_Universal]

Hi! Can Pixelmator or Final Cut Pro improve the quality of the screenshot? Several Excel tutorials have been recorded, very little detail... All screen recording programs record 8bit signal on channel of each RGB color.

[@Grapfy]

Oh yes I want to see more videos ! 😁

[@iambot5435]

One of the best decisions I've ever made was to drop Photoshop for pixelmator pro

[@BurlapandLight]

Great additions. I work primarily with people. Wish PixelMator had a function or pluging lie Portraiture for skin smoothing rather than have to use FREQ separation. Great video and update for the new features./

[@JennJagerPro]

Hopefully they see this.

[@BurlapandLight]

@@JennJagerPro That would be nice! Hey @pixelmator ......hint hint!

[@freeace00]

I also have a pixelmator pro and also affinity v2 .. I love these! Good bye photoshop forever!

[@davidstewart338]

Hi, MP4 from sony FX30 does not seem to work - grey screen, audio plays only. Any solution you can recommend?

[@chipcurry]

I don’t understand why you need this program? Final Cut already has those tools. Fior still image editing, Photoshop and Lightroom are fantastic.

[@TBD3.0]

Very well explained.

[@gonebymidnight2881]

I own all Affinity, Photoshop and I’m considering buying this for the Motion integration alone. However, it’s very disappointing that the app costs 20% in Europe than the US for no reason.

[@edwardwhite4790]

I went to the Apple store to try to buy Pixelmator Pro 3 & it’s not there yet. Where can I buy it?

[@avs2978]

awesome, more please!

[@MarioMoschetta]

I would love more video of pixelmator

[@lavinchi6709]

It’s a MAGIC👑🎁👌Grazie🎉

[@joesindy]

I would like to see more tutorials for Pixelmator Pro

[@holger2600]

Well done - thx
