Been stuck in bed with a cold the last 3 days, so I’ve been amusing myself with Premiere Pro’s Generative Extend. Took 10 frames of Captain Howdy from The Exorcist and stretched it into 4 eerie seconds. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lU_C...

Premiere supports emojis in label names, marker comments, and bin metadata. Anyone else using emojis in their post workflow?

Surely the Germans have a word for the soul-crushing despair an editor feels when their carefully crafted 16:9 edit is mangled into 9:16 and the whole thing turns into an incoherent mess. Vertikalverzweiflung, maybe.

Hi! I'd love to get a few more paid subscribers to my Patreon before the month closes. I just finished reading an excellent conspiracy theory book and plan to review it for subscribers later this week.

Yeasayer wrote this song about the first Trump administration 6 years ago - but it seems even more relevant today:

I'm so distressed
Nerves so shaken
I can't take more
Of this hateful live
I hoping for a settled score
I'm sad and bored
Of this hateful live

I used Claude.ai to recommend a Tom Waits album. Waits is one of those artists that I've always wanted to get into, but I've been overwhelmed by his discography. Claude asked me what kind of music I liked (strong songwriting, don't mind experimental), then it made a suggestion - and it was spot on.

When people say 'run government like a business,' they mean cut services, raise prices, and pay the CEO 400 times more than the workers.

Hey @thepotsnpans.bsky.social I love the mixing on Sizzle Town! What do you do for the phone effect on Tony's voice - is it an effect, or do you actually play it down a phone line and record it?

Apparently there are just two copies of the hardcover of Jewish Space Lasers left on Amazon. If two people buy them, then Amazon has to get more of them. Everyone wins!

Is it just me, or does this marketing tie-in seem at odds with the point of the TV series?

When I was that age, I spent hours making my own radio plays with a dual cassette recorder. Maybe that’s why I always begin editing with sound before picture...

What about you? What were you passionate about at that age, and how has it shaped who you are today?

I was hooked for the first 30 mins—so tense! But then... Hugh Grant made a long-winded point about religion using a Monopoly analogy. He followed it up with the same point, but with a Hollies song. By the time he was doing a bad Jar Jar Binks impression, all the tension was gone. #Heretic

Managing interview transcripts and other documents for a feature doc can be overwhelming. Lately, I’ve been using NotebookLM (from Google, and it’s free) to streamline the process. It’s been a huge help in staying organized. Here’s how I use it:
