Reached out to a dope director to edit an ad I shot. The call went very well. It's odd how well i get along with creatives.

The footage is trash but it was a learning experience. I'm sure I will get better with more practice. The director agreed to show me how she edits so I'm looking forward to it.


Edit**
Threw the music video in the bushes. I will shoot it again after the ad is finished.

yall that use Sony cameras what software yall use for editing and is there any good luts?
:dwillhuh:Not sure why you're specifically asking people with Sony cameras this question.
I use Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere. A lot of people use Davinci Resolve and praise it for its color grading tools. (They have a free version but I believe it's limited to 1080p max export).
Premiere has a bunch of luts that comes with it, but as an NLE I prefer Final Cut Pro overall. The software is WAY more optimized and the interface is much more user friendly IMO.
Premiere has a TON of functionality. They have tweaks for every single thing you could ever think of.
Make sure you're getting your images right in camera first. Luts are for stylizing, not for fixing anything. I personally only use a light touch when applying a lut. I dial it down to about 30% or less. I do a lot of manual color grading and exposure corrections as necessary before throwing on any luts, and even then, I don't use them every time; only when I'm trying to achieve a certain look.

:manny: Im still new to the photography game so i figured sony guys might use a specific software and Im trying to get good on the free software before spending alot on software. I know adobe has been on bs lately with subscription based everything so Im looking for prior generation on cd or downloadable for a decent price

Yongnuo is teasing that it has a new pocket flash on the way. Called the YN200, the product will look strikingly similar to the popular Godox AD200 (AKA the Flashpoint eVOLV 200).

Flash Havoc reports that Yongnuo has been showing off a prototype of the YN200 at tradeshows. While the Godox AD200 comes with both a standard speedlight head and a bare bulb head, the Yongnuo YN200 appears to only offer a fixed bare bulb head baked into its design (though it’s possible additional heads could be plugged into the bulb socket).

The Yongnuo YN200
While the features and specs of the YN200 have yet to be revealed, the flash will presumably offer around 200Ws of power, a removable lithium-ion battery (as seen in the product photo below), and TTL/HHS/Manual/Auto-Sensing radio receiver modes for Canon/Nikon/Sony cameras.
