Premiere Pro Vs FCP hit me with your best points!
Defenitely premiere! I find that the software is much easier to use and all the functions and controls are a little bit more simple for me and you can use it on most computers! Matti what are your opinions?
Neither. Go davinci resolve
Premiere Pro Proxie Files are so easy to use in 2022. They’ve really simplified the process. I just wish Premiere did Speed Ramping as good as FCP. FCP just does speed ramping so much better. I can always tell which platform was used based on its speed ramps.
Love you work Matti 🙌🏻 did you ever try Davinci Resolve? What you think about it? I’d love to hear your opinion. Keep up the amazing job! 🔥
Davinci Resolve all the way!
9 minutes of a trip and 3 minutes of what the video was really about
2 minutes for sponsorships
Yet you still watched
Indeed, They have tried to copy Casey Neistat ..... SOOOO BADLY, now it seen as fake as hell these videos,
When that sand hit your face - I felt it through the screen
😂😂😂
I feel it everyday because it is my country
funny
3 months later “Why I’m switching to FCP X again” 😂
I wouldn’t be surprised 🤷🏼♂️
@@mattih me neither 😜
Easy way to get people to watch the videos. Out of this whole video there was only about 3 minutes of discussion of why FCP is not being used anymore.
😂😂😂
You called it exactly.
Welcome back to “premiere pro is not responding” ❤️
I started to watch this video because my After Effects "was not responding" for 5+ mins 😅 it might be because I'm working on a 12589x5597 resolution composition on a 4 years old laptop 🤣
Lol haven’t had it happen yet but I’m waiting for it haha
@Matti Haapoja Through it all just keep saying to yourself "after effects. I'll live through it for After Effects" 😜
Save time: good stuff actually starts at 6:51.
Thanks so much
Most of this video is an annoying waste of time.
Davinci Resolve Studio for the past 5+ years for me!
Once you get deep into it, everything else feels a little "eh eh" 😵💫
I prefer Resolve for color grading/editing but not for regular editing.
I agree...I think its the best out there...blows my mind they still off a free version..so good!
DaVinci is awesome 👌
Do you miss After Effects oryou dont really need it that much? I ask because After Effects is still what holds me to Premiere...
Once you’re used to resolve Final Cut honestly feels like iMovie. I’ve never been a Premier man however.
I switched from Premiere to FCPX nearly three years ago. I shoot weddings and have very complex edits and I find the magnetic timeline in FCPX to be so much faster and easier to work with. I have to use Premiere for corporate work in my day job and it feels like editing with one arm tied behind my back. In terms of After Effects for the motion graphics side of things...I use Apple Motion instead. It's not as poweful but does 99% of the tasks that most UA-camrs would need and, like FCPX, it's incredibly fast once you've learnt the basics. I can't speak for motion tracking as it's not something I've tried out though TBH.
Mate, the thing is I like the stuff he s does. He came out with a video of how great FCPX was and he was dumping Prem. He’s doing it for the money, Adobe have given him a sweetener.
100% agree, and the same.
I used FCPX for a number of years (probably 5) at an agency. I've always used premiere pro personally. My biggest pet peeve of FCPX was actually because of the magnetic timeline, it's horrendous to me lol. The control I have in PP is amazing, however, it is the most inconsistent software I've ever used. I am almost convinced on switching over to DaVinci. I think it's a good medium between the two.
Yeah Matti is COMPLETELY missing Apple Motion for motion graphics stuff. He may still not like the lack of "dynamic linking" between FCPX and Motion, but Motion is way faster and more efficient for the motion graphic stuff I've seen him done on his channel.
so FCPX creates MAAASSIVE rendering files. but i decided to turn off background rendering to see how it would effect my workflow. and honestly, with the new M1 macs, i don't really have an issue with it. my editing actually moves faster now because it's not constantly working in the background, and my library files aren't grossly oversized anymore.
Plus you can choose to save your cache somewhere easy to find, and when you delete it at the end, the space taken up gets wayyyy smaller. Tyler Stalman talks about this tip in one of his FCPx videos
Same.
This video is 80% about luxury travel in a country with no human rights, 15% about the topic and 5% about EpidemicSound. Nice job!
Davinci Resolve is still my go to...Nothing compares as far as colour grading goes in my opinion...Still blows my mind how much you can do with the free version...90% of people would be totally fine with it
Same here. Seems like it gets ignored, but for free you get many times more than what used to go for close to a million USD.
@@TomCooper I feel like people just dont want to learn it but its so powerful and worth taking the time to learn how awesome it is
@@KardosoMedia yeees it's very hard to switch from a program I've used for years to a program I don't know at all. basically learn editing all over again. I find that very scary
Because of Adobe issues with fuji xt4 h.265 10bit, since late last year and till now, I switched to DaVinci Resolve Studio.
Now, I can't even consider going back to premier. Also, try FCP, but no go for me.
Davinci resolve is amazing.
Not only color grading. Resolve is a legit editing suite. Replaced Premiere Pro 100% for me since 4 years now
The plugins and overall performance are what will keep me in FCP for years to come. I can’t edit anything using premiere or davinci on my MacBook Pro from 2015 😅
I’ve switched to DaVinci and haven’t looked back. The features you get and an included audio editing program that’s actually good is really a good selling point for me. I love DaVinci. 👍🏻 I miss some things in Pr and Ae but not enough for me to go back. Anyway I wish you success on using Pr again
Same here, switched around 2 months ago from Premiere to DaVinci Studio and it has been an amazing experience! Love to color grading capabilities (looking at nodes and Color Space Transform). Feels so much smoother and cleaner. Also the export times are insanely fast! And the best thing: zero crashes or freezes since I started using it.
@@JonasBecker same here I switched 6 months ago. If Matti switches to Davinci as well, I feel like he won't have any of those issues anymore
Premiere has changed recently if you haven’t noticed :)
About "I don't like how big the libraries get" - for years I did not get it, but there are 2 MAJOR "hidden features" in FCP to setup - first, leave the original files in-place instead of creating duplicates INSIDE the FCP-project-file/folder, essentially how Premiere handles it, just create links to the original files. And second, move the Cache-file outside of the library, into a location that is not indexed by any cloud-backup. That dramatically reduces the size of the project file down to practically nothing.
This
Thanks for the tips!
And turn off background rendering.
Reason #1 and biggest reason to use FCP over PP is magnetic timeline. Some people HATE it because they don't know how it works and are used to a track based editor like PP. If you really learn how it works, it's a game changer with longer edits!
It’s also one of my favorite features. I can’t even grasp how people prefer to edit without it 😅 and FCP even enables you do edit without the timeline so that feature alone doesn’t seem to me like a reason to ditch FCP
@@JoeCastellon SO SO very true!!
That’s true , also the motion vfx plugins
I got off FCP because of the mag time line 🤷♂️
I have tried using PP and Resolve, but just can't get use to there not being a magnetic timeline. I was trying to figure out for days where the feature to turn it on was. Then found out it's only a FCPX thing.
Vídeo STARTS AT 6:45
I actually bounce between video editors every few years to stay fresh but also out of sheer boredom.
🙀😱💭💣
You have nerves of steel 😅
Keep video out of the FCPX library and simply use a capture scratch folder outside of the library. I think you may not have tapped into the power of the media manger, with search, keywords, favorites, and smart collections. This makes huge and complicated projects so much easier to manage.
Premier Pro is for people who like to procrastinate and make things complicated
you should give resolve a try, I switched after yeaaaars in the adobe suite. took a week or so to get fully up to speed, and I havent looked back
Totally agree! Resolve is amazing!
how long did it take you to feel as comfortable as you were in premiere?
@@whosjozikolnik just a few weeks, it's really similar! and I've had 0 issues. I have a video on my channel where I talk about the reasons / experience with it. May make an update video!
Premiere wouldn’t stop adding contrast & saturation to my exports, I couldn’t go back!
Filly & Chunkz in one of your vlogs? This is the collab I didn’t know I needed 😭
This video should be titled “Why I’m switching back to Premiere now, so I can make another video about switching back to FCP in a year”
You’re missing out biggg time by not switching to Resolve 😭 coming from 7-8 years working in Premiere Pro, Resolve just works better and makes more since. It pretty much has all of the different Adobe applications you’d need, but all in house, in one app. It’s crazy, and spectacular 🤩 (tracking is also a decent bit better in Resolve rather than Premier)
Seems like everybody is switching to DR. Hopefully when DR 18 is out of beta, some of the things that are better in DR than other programs, will be even better. Rotoscoping (Magic Mask) is unbeatable in DR 18.
@@SC36DC for real!! Can’t wait to use it!
It's that time of year again for the Dope squad to make their annual switch between softwares.
Premiere all the way for me! The dynamic link wins it everytime, no question! Also just wanna say how appreciative I am of your videos, they always inspire me for my own UA-cam videos and filmmaking ideas! So thank youuuuu!
Exactly!!!
😮Two of my favourite UA-camrs in one vlog, Honestly never thought id see Chunks in your video, Im saving this one to watch back when I'm down 🤓
Chunkz is the besttt 😊
Davici Resolve. I've used all three but Resolve is the king. Bonus point is you can get the base version that gives you 95% of the program FOR FREE. If you need that other 5% than it's a one-time fee. I'm done using NLEs or editors that base around a subscription model.
Same. Doing everything I need to do in one program w/ tabs - Adobe's predatory $$ model + Resolve 18's array of new features = it's not even close
Matti: Dynamic linking?
DaVinci: hold my beer. I’ve got it all in one app.
I've never used Da Vinci's motion design functions... but I doubt anyone can propose they are anywhere near the level of After Effects.
Are they? Seriously. Haven't used Da Vinci for motion. 😜
@@GrantMFletcher from everything I’ve seen I don’t see what you can’t do. I’ve done plenty of mo graphs. Particle generators. Text. Keying. Compositing is top notch.
Etc.
seems like an AE equivalent to me. Just have to learn nodes. (Which I have surprisingly learned to love)
@@jakefelzien Wow cool. Im gonna seek out some tutorials and see what it can do!
Unexpected appearance from Chunkz! Love from England! 🇬🇧
Davinci Resolve to the world... All in one and intuitive. Love it! Never looked back at Premiere and probably never main it again unless I need certain resources and plugin effects..
Did you have tried Davinci Resolve ?
Not yet cause of the whole motion graphics/3d tracking side
@@mattih REsolve is toooooo goood!
@@mattih Motion graphics suite is evolving for davinci resolve. and 3D tracking is built in Mate. Just give it a try!
FCPX is actually very fast now. But the best feature is that it's not rented software. Users are not forced to pay each month in perpetuity.
After Effects is what keeps me with Premiere. That and the fact that I go between a Mac and PC. Even if After Effects wasn't an issue I'd probably go Davinci. Not a big fan of FCP's layout and library system either. Much rather set up my own way of organization. No doubt it's crazy fast, though. Just too limited. Wish Adobe would get their stuff together, though.
So true!
You can still use your own organization system by switching import settings to “leave files in place” instead of “copy to library”
Absolutely agree
I edit feature docs and films on FCP. There's no system for media organization that beats Final Cut. Collections, keywords, smart collections. Magnetic trackless timeline, swapping. I will admit the audio part lacks for tracks, etc. To each his own. I think Premiere is clunky and the GUI is oddly laid out and Lumetri needs a total redesign. Just keep making content.
I agree the crazy big project files in Final Cut are a major turnoff. But I just disabled automatic creation of render files and now my project files are small. And the newer M1 macs can handle 4k without pre-rendering without breaking a sweat.
I’ve found that huge projects in FCPX are much easier and faster to work in than any other editor I’ve tried. Learning the media manager work flow was the key for me. The flow of favorites, keywords, search, smart collections is so good.
Love you work Matti 🙌🏻 did you ever try Davinci Resolve? What you think about it? I’d love to hear your opinion. Keep up the amazing job! 🔥
Resolve is so underated. Soooo good!
Matti you got to give Resolve a shot now, I was on premiere for 4-5 years. Recently switched to resolve and I have to say I love it!
It's a cool country. I'm glad u got to explore it. I was there in February.
welcome home brother
I switched from FCP to DaVinci Resolve about a year ago and don't regret it at all! My videos look so much better after switching to DaVinci Resolve and my audio is much better as well. I tried FCP a few weeks ago again and went *BLECK* - never going back.
We have to say: “Welcome to SAUDI ARABIA 🇸🇦, anytime” hope you enjoyed your stay 😍
And soon, you’ll visit us yourself!
Most welcome Matti 😍💚
I went from Premiere to Final Cut Pro, and I am now on Davinci Resolve. Davinci for the win IMO 👑
You have to use roles when you have a lot of layers in fcp makes things so much easier. Trimming is a nightmare on premiere with a lot of layers things are always being blocked by another layer.
Matti, I just want to say that you've inspired me to get into youtube and just it's definitely hard trying to figure everything out on your own because it's essentially a business. All your vids has been inspiring and helpful. Thank you!
I would have never thought to see Filly and Chunkz on this channel. Great video!
Nah man DaVinci Resolve is king.
totally agree! Resolve is so underated.
Wow! Incredible vibes
Wow, is it this time of the year again? Oh well! Time flies, when you are having fun...
Welcom to Saudi Arabia so glad you come and visit my country 😁
April Fools was like 5 days ago Matti!
Say it ain’t so….
Lol 😂
Matti, Chunk and Filly, all in one video?!?!
MAD! How did this happen then?
I NEVER thought I'd see Chunkz and Filly on a Matti Haapoja video. 😂😂😂 definitely living in a simulation!
Premiere feels like a program for amateurs after editing with FCP. I can’t understand the reason Matti switched back, must be a big check from Adobe.
@@sjeditor I agree, I would probably do the same, the trouble is, I never trust a word he says! Most of these decent size channels say and promote them the most. I hardly watch these channels anymore as they have all turned into online shopping channels selling us a load of rubbish.
Did you ever try using Apple Motion? It's got a lot of power! And libraries don't have to be large, if you don't copy files to your library.
Welcome to my hometown matti 😍 if you ever need anything…ANYTHING! Hit me up!! 🕺🏻
Welcome to Saudi man. Myself I live in riyadh and I’m a filmmaker so hope to meet you some day
Hey, you should try Resolve one of these days! It’s really awesome. I used premiere and fcp in the past, but resolve is definitely the most complete of the three. After you get used to fusion and the node system, you can’t go back…
wow! you came to my country!!😳
You should do a video of some of the newly learned FCPX tricks you ported to Premiere Pro! So us lazies don’t have to go out and learn FCPX, just reap the benefits of your experience.
"SNIP, SNAP, SNIP, SNAP, SNIP! Do you know what kind of toll switching back and forth has on the body?!" 😅 Just cut a full 45 min documentary in FCPX and I 100% agree. But it's still so fast, I keep Premier around for AE and also collaborations with other industry editors. Good luck getting back into the flow.
Hahaha yesss 😂
you can't do complex edits because you don't understand secondary story lines in final cut. FCP is a beast
I'm going the other way - love premiere but since upgrading to the M1PRO macbook I'd say its pretty much unusable as a professional tool :( very disappointing, but need to learn fcpx as every project I do on premiere ends up in frustration and multiple crashes or project glitches
Learn how FCPX handles media especially the smart collections feature in FCPX. Time saving and work flow gold.
I switched to fcp when you did, I’m never going back cause I love the magnetic timeline
I still use others if I’m required for work, but when i can I use fcp
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia is my country dude!
I’m curious what made you travel all the way from 🇨🇦 to 🇸🇦 ?
You should:
1- Eat KABSA
2- Include Camel 🐪 in your vlog!
3- See a new city called Neom.
4- See Quicksand in the Empty Quarter desert 🙈
Anyway, if you were trying to show some sights of SA, your vlog covered not even 0.01 of 10 👍🏻
I love the “productions” feature where you can build massive interconnected projects that share can share footage…game changer for me.
I had already imagined this video long ago
Yes me too 😂
I went FCP to Prem since starting UA-cam. Dedicated tracks and an audio mixer makes edits super simple. 🙌🏻
6:46 Here u go
FYI 8:45 he answers the title of the video
How is no one talking about how Matti was hanging out with chunkz and Filly 😂must have been a blast!
The only reason I refuse to go with premier is because they charge you yearly instead of a one and done like FCP. On principle alone I won’t pay that much every year for a program.
Chunkz and Filly in a Matti video...my two worlds just combined.
Yooo Filli and Chunks! Saudi looks like a sick spot 🔥
Apple wins either way. You've already bought FCP, and you're buying their computers.They're happy. They're a computer/device company, not an NLE company. Nice video, and nice honest thought out points. Although, obviously I've biased toward Motion (having been an AE user since 1995) and the superior synergy between it an FCP. Which I never would have fully delved into if it wasn't for Adobe's subscription model turn off. In fact, they make it easy to leave the Adobe ecosystem since if I ever need it, I can toss a couple bucks their way and use AE or PS in a pinch. Which, in the last few years has been.... zero. 😆
Haha true 🙏🏻
Do you use Affinity instead of PS?
@@JoeCastellon Yep. And recently started adding Pixelmator PRO into the mix to get simple vector art into Motion with the splines, borders, colors, gradients, etc adjustable.
I thought I would miss Ae and Ps when I switched. I thought there was no way Motion could do what Ae does. Motion completely surprised me. The fact you can make your own title generators in Motion and leave them in FCP to use anytime is amazing. No reopening projects from another software or saving the template somewhere. I sometimes use Procreate for graphics. I’ll animator hand drawn text or graphics, air drop them to the computer and use in Motion. It’s too easy.
😂😂😂
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine seeing a vlog from Matti Filly and Chunkz in it lol. Gotta love youtube
Hi Matti, what kind/brand of 360 camera are you using, in this video?
I just commented with this same question!
Seeing both you and Chunks in the same video has made by day!
Been using Premiere since CS4 or CS3 I think. Thought about switching but the muscle memory and speed I have developed with Premiere is something I don't want to give up. Great vid Matti!
Can we take a second to acknowledge that first minute travel montage! Insane!
Premier Pro is a beast which I to love 😍 problem is I wish they could fix it optimally also for PC sometimes u get those sudden failures but then again we have been riding this ride regardless 😂.. Great travels Matti always great to see u having a good time 😊👌
FCPX is my favourite, easy and powerful tool.
I try to stabilize a clip, in adobe premier the time was 30 min and at the fcpx 4 min.. 😁
Nooooo don’t leave!
Okay fine 😛
I’m sticking with FCP on my M1 Max but I never need to use crazy effects for my projects, but I get why you need a little more.
Yoooo it’s the sideman’s buds hahaha!
Betasquad 😂
@@mattih ahhhh yup that’s the one 😂
Totally relatable about the pros and cons between the two. I also hate the key framing options in fc compared to premiere. But it's so fast and as long as the edit doesn't get too complex it definitely helps the creative juices flow a little quicker and smoother imo.
What is the bitrate problem ? 👀 0:49
You have everybody super cold, and then of course you have THE Canadian. LOL
The truth is that it probably is about just making another video. A UA-camr tries a new software and writes : I am switching to xyz. A week later another video : why I am switching to it. Two month later : is fcp still holding up? And of course they always love it. A year later: I am switching back to…. A week later : why I switched and so on and so forth. Who will switch next?
Correct...
good point! I guess UA-camrs nowadays switch everything every month/year. 90% of cons that Matti said in this are total BS for someone who knows how to use FCP properly ;-)
Welcome Back Matti!!!!!! premiere pro is nice Choice
FCP is so easy and reliable to use, especially if you’re on Mac. I have heard a lot of great things about Davinci Resolve.
Only issue with PP/AE.. Monster errors and export times that go into hours...
But yes... AE for awesome effects
You're very welcome to Saudi 🇸🇦, let us meet you if you go to eastern region.
What mic setup are you using around 3:30 to capture good audio from all the guys, without much wind noise… presuming they weren’t all lapelled 🤔👌☺️
i never expected a cross over between you and Chunkz lol...im officially mind blown
Thousands of people just quit FCP and signed up to PP!
Cool video Matti!
so weird to see chunks and Filly at Matti's vlog lol. This is how internet works!
Such a cool vibe, as always Matti!
Hey matti! Big big fan of your channel I’m an aspiring film maker and your channel has definitely help me a lot!
Awesome 🙏🏻
Edited in FCP 7 for years. once X came out the whole work flow changed. PP & its dynamic links for me blow away everything else. I use Resolve for color editing but aside from that I primarily live in the Adobe world.
