![]() ![]() It's been quietly growing its user base all the time, it's the de facto standard for professional content creators on YouTube, many people who abandoned it ten years ago are coming back to it, post houses now accept it if an editor insists on using it, etc. I take issue with the statement that Final Cut is in decline. (Once editors learn that they to tend to hate going back to tracks.) Something I'll have to try is to see if the magnetic timeline works better than tracks with athye touch interface that an iPad has. ![]() I can see how it's useful though for someone out shooting, then needing the same interface as what they'll send it to.īut I think the big thing is the magnetic timeline. What do you think about this news, though? Will you try out this new Final Cut Pro on your iPad? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.įor me I likely won't use it but then I don't use an iOS device for shooting. But, as with anything in this industry, that could change fast if they ever want to refocus. Apple might be conceding the professional video editing market to Adobe and Blackmagic for now and just focusing on growing its prosumer user base. Ultimately though, the Logic Pro iPad app looks far more fun to mess around with than the video side, especially since DaVinci Resolve is already available on the iPad. Also, if you’re someone first starting off in video editing and a bit turned off by all of the buttons and controls that come with starting up an NLE on your desktop, this also might be a nice first foray into proper digital video editing. However, for certain projects where remote editing work might be necessary (especially on the most brutal of run-and-gun setups where even a laptop might be too cumbersome), I could see this iPad FCP being worth at least trying out. But we’ll have to wait and see just how much like the classic Final Cut Pro setup is carried over to this new iPad version. You’ll also be able to speed up workflows by adding a Magic Keyboard or Smart Keyboard Folio to use many of the legacy FCP commands. And on iPads with M2, this Apple Pencil will be able to hover and unlock more abilities for users to skim and preview footage and other commands by touching the screen. With a powerful set of intuitive tools designed for the portability, performance, and touch-first interface of iPad, Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro deliver the ultimate mobile studio.” - Bob Borchers, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.įrom the first looks of this new iPad Final Cut Pro, we’re probably going to see a whole host of new tools and features for the app, which are tailored for this new touch-screen workflow, including a new jog wheel to make the editing process to most probably make up for the lack of keyboard and mouse functions.Īnother interesting quirk announced for this new iPad Final Cut Pro so far is a Live Drawing mode which will allow users the ability to write directly on top of their video footage using the Apple Pencil. ![]() “We’re excited to introduce Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad, allowing creators to unleash their creativity in new ways and in even more places. Along with Logic Pro, these new pro apps will both bring all-new touch interfaces to these legacy apps, which should allow users the ability to enhance their workflows with multi-touch intuitiveness. In what could be chalked up as the most inevitable move ever, Final Cut Pro is finally going to be offered on iPad and will be available on May 23rd, 2023. But this news today will certainly signal a new direction and drastic shift for Final Cut Pro moving forward. Still, for certain video editors who got started in the early or late 2000s, there are plenty of fans of Final Cut Pro who have either kept using it for some of its hallmark features (like its popular magnetic timeline) or at least fondly remember the NLE and wish to see it rise again. This further divided the market and ultimately added more solid options for video editors of all skill levels. This gave Adobe Premiere Pro a chance to fill in the void along with Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve, which has also made inroads in the professional video editing world as it grew from a color grading suite to a full-fledged NLE and compositor. ![]() Final Cut Pro began a slow decline which has left it behind its competition. However, the slimmed-down Final Cut Pro X released in 2011 lacked many of the features of previous iterations and professionals weren't happy with the changes. Several filmmakers on our staff cut most of their early work on Final Cut 7. Originally designed as a more easy-to-use and accessible alternative to Avid, Final Cut Pro was one of the most popular NLEs in the world in the 2000s. Originally developed by Macromedia and, since 1998, Apple as part of its pro apps collection, Final Cut Pro has been a legacy NLE which has seen its popular ebb and flow throughout the age of digital video editing. ![]()
