Capcut vs Premiere Pro

[grega99503882]

I've been playing with CapCut, and I'm extremely confused about how an app can be so powerful. The face retouching, makeup controls, effects, transitions, and more surpass anything I can do with Premiere Pro. I feel like CapCut is the biggest threat to Premiere Pro—I just don't understand how a company as big as Adobe, with its expensive subscription model, can be so far behind. I should be able to open Premiere and find a face retouching tool as easy to use as the one in CapCut. I truly don’t understand how such a young app can be so much more advanced than an industry veteran.

For filmmaking, Premiere Pro and DaVinci might be incredible, but for content creation, CapCut is king. One click, and the entire face of my subject becomes seamlessly smooth. That's crazy! but you know what's crazier? Premiere isn't applying anything close to it. If I want to clean an audio track, I have to open Audition. In CapCut, I just click one button, and two seconds later, it's clean. Adobe needs to step up and consider that the vast majority of users working in video today do it for social media.

It’s crazy, right? CapCut’s features are incredibly user-friendly and powerful, especially for a free app! The face retouching and makeup controls are definitely game-changers, and it’s surprising how easily it outperforms some premium software like Premiere Pro in certain areas. Maybe Adobe needs to step up its game and offer more intuitive tools like those in CapCut to stay competitive.

The first thing that Premiere needs, is simplified "Content creator" workspace and project settings. Sad that Rush was left behind and is now end of life. What content creators need:
-easy to use Phone app
-simple syncronisation of projects with devices and team
-loads of easy to edit templates

CapCut sync is doable , but not as simple it was in Rush. But big downside is the new user agreements there that allow  excessive harvesting of user data.

CapCuts succes showed the way, its should be easy to Adobe to make it even better!

Capcut, like all prosumer designed apps, is designed with the idea of doing everything automatically ... very few user input choices.

Professionals working in video posts have always wanted total granular controls for everything ... and so the basic underlying concepts of how to design the app UI are completely, 180* opposite of each other.

I've seen major changes over the last couple years in both Premiere and Resolve on many things, like the new masking stuff in Premiere. Resolve, as an app that only "recently" went past being a colorist's app, naturally has more 'finishing' things like face/skin "repair" effects, as colorists had to have those.

In Premiere, that's normally been supplied by the wealth of plugins out there.

There are quite a few things now that are auto and/or machine learning things in Premiere, although not nearly as much as within an app built around being auto-fixer. Have you checked the public beta?
