Prompt: create an image of a young female looking straight into the lens in lotus posture at the side of a pond where several fishes are rearing their heads above the water and many other creatures are coming together in a circle around her, with some birds landing in her hair.

Prompt: Show an image of a child wearing a small Jewish kippa holding hand with another child wearing a keffiyeh, both from behind looking at a brightly lit, sparkling Christmas tree in front of them. The foreground (children) are out-of-focus (shot at F2) while the background (Christmas tree) is in focus.
Note: for some reason, Firefly did not want to shift the focus to the background, even though I prompted otherwise. Perhaps it is programmed to focus on people over objects? I intended the focus to be on the Christmas tree as a storytelling device...

Unfortunately, the Synchronize feature in PPro only allows for synchronization of matching clips.
By roughly placing them on top of each other on the timeline you can use the feature to sync clips to each other. Unlike what used to be possible with PluralEyes from Red Giant (now Maxon), you cannot sync up all clips in a project.
Adobe should address this in a future update. Unlike many of the fancy AI stuff, this solves another daily editing issue.

Prompt: Please create a scene of a colorful amusement and adventure park, with many rollercoasters, rides, playgrounds and facilities for food and drinks. The theme should be the Netherlands, so make use of the colors: red, white, blue and orange but don’t forget to add some greenery. To dive further into the theme please take inspiration from dutch culture; windmiles, bicycles, tulips and cheese.

Windmills are our castles 😉
Prompt: An extreme close-up image of the feet of a man skating on the ice of a Dutch canal with a Dutch windmill in the background. As the ice scrapes the surface we see fairytale dust coming off. It is past sunset and we see twinkling christmas lights on the windmill in the background.

Wow, this IS a very helpful tool!
- Shift+TAB sounds good to me. Perhaps some others would prefer something else, but I guess you can always set your own preffered shortcuts, right?
- Both. Sometimes you work with the mouse, sometimes you prefer to handle the keyboard
- For 3D layers this could be handy, but you need to be able to determine whether the anchor is set to the middle of the 3D object or on the face that you're looking at. Perhaps by default it's set to the center of the object, but you provide a possibility to change it to one of the faces by "caging" the 3D object in a virtual set of minimum required faces to cover all angles and then letting the user decide on which face they want to change the anchor point.
- Have not tested that yet.

I would love to see this implemented, but I would also like to see it expanded with an option for frequency ducking, where you choose to only attack the frequencies that fight with voice in the music track and leave the lower frequencies in tact.
This creates a much fuller sound in the edit and is akin to an "outside the club" effect or a trick that is often used in deep and trance house music, just before 'the drop'.
Side chaining is not an option in PPro, so enabling this - with one or multiple voice tracks - would be greatly appreciated.

Prompt: Wide angle side view of a running cheetah at full motion high speed on the plains. Front and back feet are fully extended. It's late in the afternoon, near dusk. The sun sets on the horizon. We see the background blurred out due to the motion blur and the cheetah tack sharp.

Consider switching to a different Video Previews codec. Instead of i-Frame Only MPEG, choose Quicktime, Apple ProRes.

Why do you need 60 frames per second as a sequence setting? Don't you want to conform to the US playback standards of either 23,976 or 29,97?

Is this only happening when you pause the video or also with playback? If the first, it could be that you have the Paused Resolution set to a low setting (e.g. 1/8th). You can change that under with the wrench menu and then select Full in Paused Resolution.

This is a matter of basic file management outside PPro.
In order to create a Project Template that you wish to re-use, I use the following method:
- Save the current project
- Next, save the project under a new name (e.g. my_template.pproj)
- Remove all the clips from the project: not just in the timeline, but also from the project bins
- Save the project under the new name
Everytime you start a new project, copy the my_template.pproj in your Explorer folder, so you keep the clean version. Rename the copy to whatever the new project is supposed to be named and open it up in PPro.
Hope this helps.

If it's unique, then probaby it wasn't created with the use of a plugin.
For starters, this is an animation more likely done in After Effects rather than PPro. For this reason, I am moving this discussion to the After Effects community.
What I see is a per character animation with a rotation parameter and a motion bounce. Once you have created this for one character, you can copy the parameters over to other layers or use a control layer to achieve the same effect.

Can you please elaborate a bit for us: what do you mean by "camera is really sharp"? Do you refer to the jaggedness of the camera motion in the example, the depth of field or the lack of motion blur in the action?

Prompt: Create a look from inside a modernly styled 1930s villa onto a lawn with a wall of lush green plants in the background and a garden house on the left side with a straight pond in front of it, filled with water plants and water lilies. It’s early morning and garden doors are open and there are two cups of steaming italian espresso positioned in the foreground. The background is subtly out of focus, akin to f2.8 on a 16mm lens.
