Zoom Cloud
I think the zoom cloud recording worked very well. You can see it here:

Adobe Premiere Pro
I’m wondering if I should use this instead of final cut pro and how much learning curve there may be to do some basic editing like I showed you last week.
There are very powerful AI tools with Adobe Premiere that may be able to automate almost all of the video editing process. I’ve heard it also has good cloud collaboration features and ipad functionality, so it can be scaled up and outsourced.
The video quality, quantity, timeliness, and efficiency can all be greatly improved with these tools. This has the potential to make our videos 10x better with 10x more videos, 10x faster, and in 10x less time…
Key purpose
AI tools in Adobe video editing software give you expert results fast, from editing colors and blending audio tracks to crafting seamless interview clips and adjusting video content for any aspect ratio. Spend less time on tedious tasks, like adjusting keyframes, changing color levels, making cuts, and organizing clips — and spend more time getting inspired and telling a story with stunning video projects.
Key features
Colour Match
Instantly match the colors in two different video clips in your sequence with Color Match. This helps eliminate discrepancies between the colors in different shots of the same scene.
How to: Choose your clip to edit and a reference clip, and then open the Lumetri Color panel. If your clips include people, enable Face Detection so the app knows to pay special attention to skin tones. Finally, tap Apply Match. You can tweak the automatic adjustments if needed.
Morph Cut
Interviews and talking head videos often require many jump cuts to clean up awkward pauses in dialogue. These can make the interview look choppy and unnatural. Instead, go to Video Transitions in the Effects panel and select and place the Morph Cut transition over cuts like this to add visual continuity and make the clips flow seamlessly into one another. An advanced combination of face tracking and optical flow interpolation come together for a high-quality video that looks like one smooth take.
Scene Edit Detection
When you need to create a new edit of a longer video, separating it back into the original shorter clips is the first step. Finding the scene transitions and placing these cuts manually can be tedious, but with Scene Edit Detection, Premiere Pro will automatically cut your scenes for you. Right-click a clip on your timeline, select Scene Edit Detection, and choose whether you’d like to add cuts, create a new bin of sub-clips, or place clip markers at each cut point.
Auto Reframe (also mentioned further down)
To change horizontal 16:9 video footage into a tall 9:16 aspect ratio can require time-consuming keyframe motion edits in order to keep moving subjects visible. Auto Reframe solves this by instantly identifying the focal point of action in your shots and keeping it visible as you change aspect ratios. This is especially handy if you’ve created a wide video but want to post a clip of it on social media platforms formatted for square or tall aspect ratios, like TikTok or Instagram.
- How to use
More AI tools for video and audio
- Remove objects from videos
Head to adobe After Effects to use Content-Aware Fill and quickly remove unwanted objects from your video. This feature, powered by Adobe Sensei, analyzes surrounding frames and replaces the removed pixels with seamless content. Then easily import the clips you edit into Premiere Pro to add to your video project.
- Remix music to match video length
By using Adobe Audition from within Premiere Pro, you can remix or stretch music to increase its length. No more manually duplicating and cutting music so it’s the right duration. Select your audio track in Premiere Pro and choose Edit › Edit in Adobe Audition › Sequence. There, you can either remix your track or make speed adjustments.
- Blend music and dialogue
Automatic audio ducking lowers the volume of music in your video while dialogue is happening. This boosts the dynamic experience of your video — the audience can enjoy background music while also understanding the words being spoken. Learn to auto duck your sequence with the steps in this tutorial

‘Text to image’ feature
Benefits
Can help make concepts much more efficient to be able to prove out a visual idea very quickly and iterate on it to illustrate something to a client within a matter of seconds. That can help projects move more quickly and also give the artist/designer an idea on what might the end product be
Get inspired by the community (discover prompts to remix and make your own)
Use strategies
- Use if for ideation and get ideas out fast and go do it in the way i would have done it traditionally
- To be used as an ingredients generator machine, i.e. having little pieces and using them to form a bigger composition
- Think about not what I want to replicate but also what do I want to make that I can pull my own individual, cultural and creative context into something.
