P3 Pro Test Edit Video

[Cody L. Williams]

Did a quick edit with some footage I did last weekend. Only have one battery so I had limited resources available. No crazy shots, just some scenery I thought looked pretty cool

What software do you use?
What was the source video format?
I like the over the cliff and landing shadow shots

Thx. I had some nice orbit shots of some of the trees etc too but they were a little too wobbly in terms of my piloting of them so I passed on them.

This was just shot at 1080p to save space on the sd card I had. Videos were in MP4 as I believe those file sizes are smaller too. I think MOV format looks a little better in terms of overall quality though.

Edited and color corrected in Adobe Premiere CC

I just switched to Premiere CC from FCP X, I'm still in the 30 day trial. I currently have a CC subscription for Lightroom/Photoshop.
Here's a post I made about Premiere CC export presets for 4K. They may come in useful for you if you haven't already done some background research on export settings.

Nice! What font is that at the end?

Actually thats very useful. I haven't fully dug in on editing/media/export etc with the P3 footage. Haven't had much time, so anything is helpful. I had tried to do a 4k experiment on my first outing and was really having trouble getting 4k out out of Premiere in a way I felt wasn't ridiculous. Standard .mov wrappers don't seem to love 4k in Premiere output for some reason that I couldn't figure out. It restricts the resolution to 1920 or 2k (don't remember) but mpeg seems to go south faster on compression. thanks!

I believe its called "Trim"

That's a nice little video! I liked the color grading - need to teach myself a lot more about that before my P3 arrives.

Edit: Actually, that video reminded me of a thread I've been wanting to start.
