OH I misunderstood.

I’d love the name to return. But I’m open to something new to be honest. Maybe it’s time for it.

I mean, does it look like that platform is improving even if he does?

There's a lot more to look at and play with. You can read all of these new features and more over on Apple's site.

I'm also a nerd for new workflow optimisations, including the ability to reorganise my timeline with just keyboard shortcuts.

Option + ↑ + ↓ to move singular or multiple clips up and down the timeline is going to be my most used shortcut, I can see it happening

3/ New Effects & Keyboard Shortcuts

There's also new keyboard shortcuts and optimisations, but also the introduction of 2 new effects. Callout and Picture in Picture

These captions aren't titles, and have limited controls and animations

But you can easily convert them using a tool like captionAnimator (or other tools if you find them) into animated titles with more options.

2/ Auto Captions

FINALLY!

Final Cut Pro 11 can now do auto-captions. If you work with subtitles or captions, you can use this to generate subtitles for your videos.

Note these are only in English for now, and uses AI but processes data on device (nothing is shared)

You can use this effect to
- Remove backgrounds
- Add animations or text behind subjects
- Add custom effects to objects or people
- Plus whatever else you can think of

1/ Magnetic Masks

Magnetic Masks are Apple's version of auto-rotoscoping.

1. Drag the effect onto a subject.
2. Let it analyse the clip
3. The background will then be removed

You can also use this on effects and colour corrections.

Will consider it for sure.

The other reason I like Typefully is it's like $12.80 for X, Bluesky, Threads & LinkedIn.

I don't need the Shorts stuff so it ends up being cheaper.

Will see. I think Typefully is releasing their integration soon, but nice to look at options.

I currently pay for Typefully as I quite liked their writing tool. I may need to switch.

Happy to pay for the higher options too. Will check it out!

Finally followed me back. I'll call off the hit squad.
