The BRAW Studio plugin for Premiere Pro from the AUTOKROMA team is available for free for full-fledged work with frames obtained from Blackmagic cameras. I advise you to test from the official website of the company for stability. Thanks to the developers of AUTOKROMA company 👏

One of the big things I've enjoyed at NAB is the aisle-way discussions. And the ones around the back of the Adobe booth with the engineers and several users sharing experiences.

 

We are all different in the way we work. I was in a discussion with an editor and three of his assistants. All hired as total noobs by the guy, all totally taught by him. And they laughed about even then, they all work very differently while editing in the same shop.

 

As for the BM BRAW plugin, I couldn't ever rely on it. It would work for a while, then wouldn't. Just fritzed. But the next day it might work ... or I might have to wait for a new plugin from them. And since I 'left' their plugin, I've three times now removed the Autokroma plugin and tested the lastest BM plugin. Well ... yea, that's not good.

 

And back to the Autokroma plugin.

 

Now ... for anyone using the BM plugin, the Autokroma site has the best support for issues with the BM plugin you'll find anywhere. Including all sorts of fixes/workarounds to keep using it. Nice people at Autokroma.

I couldn't get it working when I obtained a paid version, so I think I'll pass.

 

The BM version works for me, although I do have hit Revert to Metadata before I can apply the LUT.

At the moment they have the latest version and there are no restrictions in the application to frames. Previously, it was possible to apply only to 500 frames for familiarization. Now there are no restrictions and in the free version you can do the main front of work. Try the new version

The Autokroma BRAW plugin has always been far more reliable than the BlackMagic one, has had more options like for presets, and is actually SUPPORTED. Well, they've actually supported the free BM plugin better than BM did!

 

So ... yes, folks ... go get the Autokroma plugin. Amazing tool!

Forget about more options the latest BRAW plugin from BMD has a bug. I will have a video tutorial soon.

Oh, I'll be pressing some engineers & supers ... I'm well known "there" as an open advocate for many user ideas & requests, even ones that don't impact my workflows.

 

Perhaps it's from being on the autism spectrum ... but I have no problem with looking someone directly in the face and politely but clearly stating that answer is of no use whatever. (I also expect them to be able to do the same thing of course.)

 

So when an engineer explains that X is "there" rather than "here" because of the proper organization behind the veil of the UI ... I'll just re-state: "That's NOT how we use it, and makes no sense whatever for a USER. The UI only exists for us to ... USE IT. Not for engineers."

 

But at the same time, I've been told they really like my bug reports. Too many UserVoice bug reports are simple "X is broken. Fix it." Which was a total waste of time on the part of the person posting it.

 

Why? There's absolutely nothing there for an engineer to even START with. Mine ... give context, including hardware, effects, media, program version, and the last few steps before X happened. Makes it easy for them to peruse the post, set it up on a machine, and see if on their hardware it happens.

 

So they do like to see me coming, mostly ... 😉 ... but they know they're going to get several earfulls also.

 

And this time ... that we NEED that separate color managment panel so we can have something UP and visible to check CM settings/defaults/overrides. For proxies to reflect mods to clips.

 

I want a P3/D65 "working space" in the timeline, period. All media transformed to that large color space for working/processing, with options for display space and export space. This way all color controls will behave the same no matter what the media is.

 

More options for the captions process ... including multiple tracks for things like multiple languages. That doesn't affect me, but for so many others, they have to publish with mulitple captions for various languages.

 

And always stablity ... consistency ... well, yea ...

It should get off the ground. Neil, of course, would like to see a more improved product, including working with keys, additional features with color, etc. As far as possible, put it on the agenda when you are at the conference. Of course, the product requires a good update from all sides, including the shell. I would like to see a little modern design and flexibility in settings. Now the design is outdated
