Youtube final cut pro review p11/21/2023 And I’ve written this review in hopes it will help you understand just what you are (and aren’t) getting into when you choose a long-term relationship with Final Cut Pro. With over a decade of personal and commercial work done in Final Cut Pro, I have some experience in these matters. Do you like the way they operate? Are they stable and reliable?įinally – and to push the spousal metaphor beyond its breaking point – can you afford it/them? Or, if you’re starting the relationship to get paid, how easily can you find work? Like choosing a spouse, the features are less important in the long run than how you get along with it/them. As I wrote above, all the major professional editing programs have enough features to edit Hollywood movies in.īut to be a good video editor you will spend days, weeks, and hopefully years living with your program. I wrote this review because I find most reviews of Final Cut Pro focus on its “features” and I think that is an important, but secondary consideration. And, I have some perspective on the choice you face: I also get paid to edit in DaVinci Resolve and am a trained Adobe Premiere editor (though it has been a while, for reasons that will become clear…) My day job is using Final Cut Pro to earn money as a video editor, not writing reviews. Final Cut Pro Struggles with Collaboration.Final Cut Pro’s Stability: It Won’t Let You Down.Final Cut Pro’s Performance (Speed is Good).Final Cut Pro Has Some Sexy (“Advanced”) Features.Final Cut Pro Uses a “Magnetic” Timeline.Final Cut Pro Delivers the Basics of a Professional Editor.What is not great: Less acceptance in the commercial market (less paid work), depth of features (when you are ready for them), and weak collaboration tools. What is great: Useability, the magnetic timeline, price, included titles/transitions/effects, speed, and stability. It may not have as many features as its competitors, but its usability, speed, and stability make it an attractive option for many looking to make a career in video editing.įor this review, I assume you are interested in – or have basic familiarity with – video editing and are considering upgrading to a professional-level editor. The combination of these two factors makes it a natural choice for beginning editors.īut it is also good for professional editors. What sets Final Cut Pro apart is that it is relatively easy to learn, and is much cheaper than Avid or Premiere Pro. For the most part, all of these programs are equal. Final Cut Pro is a professional video editing program, comparable to Avid Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve, and Adobe Premiere Pro.
