They were going to take over and do all the graphics and color grading themselves.
Although it was a corporate job and not for broadcast, I was essentially doing the offline edit. But despite the time-savings of native editing, there are some workflows where it just isn’t practical.įor example, I recently completed a project in Premiere Pro for a particular production company that is still sitting on the fence and using Final Cut Pro Legacy. These include projects that are done end-to-end by me in-house and on-site jobs like live events where time is of the essence.
Native editing workflows are perfect for about 80% of the projects I work on. When is Editing Natively Not Such a Good Idea? Indeed, perhaps “linking” is a better term than “importing” to describe the video acquisition process in Premiere Pro. There is no waiting for re-wrapping or transcoding because you are literally “linking” straight to the source files that you offloaded from the camera.
AVCHD and the Panasonic-branded equivalent, AVCCAMīut what does that mean in practical terms? Well, footage from any of these tapeless formats can be imported into Premiere Pro and edited immediately – no need to install any additional codecs, plug-ins, or import modules. Sony XDCAM, XDCAM HD, XDCAM HD422, XDCAM EX. Panasonic P2 (DV, DVCPRO, DVCPRO50, DVCPRO HD, AVC-Intra). What Exactly Does “Edit Natively” Mean?Īccording to Adobe, Premiere Pro is able to edit the following tapeless formats natively: Depressing because I thought about all that wasted time spent Log & Transferring over the years when I could have gone to Premiere Pro sooner. Exciting because of all the time I would be saving by not having to Log & Transfer my footage before I could start editing a project. The possibility of being able to import P2 or DSLR footage into Premiere Pro and start cutting immediately was simultaneously an exciting and depressing prospect. The second feature that held the most sway was Premiere Pro’s ability to edit natively with most formats. As someone who has used After Effects for a number of years, Dynamic Link was one of these (you can read my post on round-tripping between Premiere Pro and After Effects with Dynamic Link here. As a Final Cut Pro editor, there were two features in Premiere Pro CS6 that informed my decision to seriously consider making the switch and making it my NLE of choice.
