![]() The little change that rocks is the Search Bar above the shortcuts. You can now enter the function you’re looking for and as you type… those matching functions and preset shortcuts pop up. In CS 5, you had to hunt for the function (that may be named something different than what you are used to) and this caused a couple of “accidental” catastrophic failures to my mouse. It flew across my edit suite into a wall. The accent (`) key that I mentioned last time (I called it tilde last time but I’ve been since informed by a prickly fellow editor that it’s actually the accent (`) key) makes the active frame maximize to full screen. Now, you can hit “SHIFT+`“ and it will maximize the panel your cursor is hovering over and you don’t have to select that panel before maximizing. That’s one less keystroke you probably use thousands of times a day. I personally make the MAXIMIZE UNDER CURSOR my (`) shortcut instead of MAXIMIZE FRAME. I like to set the Keyboard shortcut “Q” to be my default video transition and “W” to be my default audio transition. They’re bunched together at the top left of the keyboard and I don’t use them for “go to in point” and “go to outpoint” as the default in FCP.ĬS 5.5 doesn’t have the right-click apply video transition or audio transition option but I prefer using a keyboard shortcut for this anyway. This brings me to a new addition to CS 5.5… the FILM DISSOLVE transition. (CMD+Q makes any transition you highlight in your video transition folder the default.)ĬROSS DISSOLVE FILM DISSOLVEįilm Dissolve versus Cross Dissolve Film Dissolve is a new transition that I make my default instead of CROSS DISSOLVE. The technical explanation of the difference is that FILM DISSOLVE has a linear light response. Then they said gamma, highlights, 32-‐bit, curve, log, and pixel. ![]() Somewhere in there is the answer.Īll I know is that FILM DISSOLVE gives a more organic transition that deals with the highlights better. Usually, in CROSS DISSOLVE the highlights fade away quickly and turn a fake grey muddy color for a second… translation UGLY. In the first shot, I used CROSS DISSOLVE over the lead actor and an overlay of clouds. In the second shot, I used FILM DISSOLVE and it maintains more of the cloud layer as the whites carry over.
