Fun fact: The distracted boyfriend picture was taken in the city of Girona, Spain, in 2015, the photographer and models are from Barcelona, the models are Mario and Laura.
No joke? For some reason I always thought it was in San Francisco. I don’t know how/why that got into my head. Hoping to visit soon, by the way- we had thought this summer, but I think it might be next now.
@@TheoreticallyMedia Extra fun fact, the girl appeared in a very well known spanish live podcast show (La Ruina) she was randomly picked and told her story. if you look for "La ruina famosa internacional por sorpresa" you'll find it. It's in spanish tho.
Thanks, Tim, for highlighting alternatives to PS. I think that's important. Personally, I don't want to have to subscribe to use PS (although I do subscribe to MJ -- hmmm...), so alternatives are appreciated, even if they're not quite there yet. But I must say, I'm starting to get a bit of AI burnout because none of them are really there yet. For example, each time I ask MJ for something, the results are rarely good enough or usable in my projects, even with fixing in PS Elements. Right now I think of it as a good source for clip art, and for the occasional one-off, but for anything that requires a consistent look -- or even a character with normal hands! or the right number of legs! -- I have to draw it myself.
Yeah, I’d say we’re right on the cusp. But that might be a long cusp! We ramped up really hard, but it’s almost like when you go on a workout routine. That first 10 pounds shed quick, but those last 10 seem to take forever! It will get there, but I do hear you on the burnout!
To be honest, the Premiere thing is just as simple as: when you import you raw footage in (namely, me babbling at a camera) it auto transcribes everything, and QUICK. So, the thing you guys never see is me stammering, or stopping, or losing my train of thought. I’m also trying to get better about saying “um” So, here’s the hilarious part: after every section I do that is good, I say “fart” So, with Premiere’s transcribe, all I have to do now is run a search for the word “fart” and whatever text that precedes it, I know is the “good take” All I do is highlight that text and boom: it’s edited. It’s insane. And a massive time saver. At least for my A-Roll. Oh, and I say “farts” as a keyword, mostly because I think it would be fairly rare to say it in a video. It could really be any uncommon word, but what can I say? In a lot of ways I’m still a 15 year old who laughs at farts. Haha.
@@TheoreticallyMedia Haha! It'll be impossible not to even when we're 90! Yes,i use a clicker so I can see the markers. That's great though, because you'd have to use 2 or 3 3rd party apps right now for that functionality (including getting rid of fillers). Excellent, thank you. 👍
Good stuff! Will definitely check it out. Also seems useful for on-the-go or not otherwise at a desktop, even if you do have an Adobe sub. (Mobile photoshop is not exactly feature-complete even to current photoshop, nevermind beta features.) Thanks for the heads up!
100% And, man- I haven't checked in on Mobile PS in awhile. To be honest, If I need some kind of editing, I'll just do it on my phone app. I did try PS Mobile at launch, and as I recall it was a bit of a dumpster fire. Also, I do tend to think: more tools the better! (Gonna need a bigger shed!)
firefly is stable diffusion, the model training is massive by adobe by 100s of thousands more so the language model is better, i did some vids on a krita plugin that fantastic
Yeah, I’d say 50/50 depending on what you’re aiming for with fill. To be honest, I think the best way to go is create in Midjourney and then comp it in… But I’ll say, I haven’t been overly impressed with Firefly, it does trees and textures pretty well, but really lacks any kind of imagination. At the end of the day; this provides some alternatives to those who don’t use PS. That’s really all.
Like, crowds of people, or just random people in the frame? You might be able to just do it with Photoshop or Affinity, or even Gimp. My best “celeb” con story is meeting G. del Toro. Bumped into him on the floor and was like “hey, big fan!” And he responded “We don’t have time for that! Walk with me!” I ended up hanging out with him for over an hour, talking movies and props while he bought all these crazy toys and comics from the vendors. It was the only time I hung out with a celeb where I had to say “uh, I gotta go…”
@@TheoreticallyMedia Had a buddy that I went with and he’s in a a few shots with some celebs that we got. Trying to figure out how to get him out of these shots that doesn’t require cropping.
@@yeastydynasty My best thought is to use the canvas feature in Leonardo that I talk about in this video. Bring the photo in, mask/paint over your buddy, and experiment with prompts to see if you can remove him. Might be do-able.
Adobe’s generative fill is just better, what can I say. I don’t think any of these images are useable, and as you said it’s basically just outpainting with stable diffusion. Adobe just has more money and more people to research.
Excellent. That will likely be me again next week. I was really close earlier this year to going Davinci and Affinity. Which programs do you generally use?
@@TheoreticallyMedia When I did most of my serious editing it was Final Cut, but lately just CapCut because it seems like the best free option. Was thinking about diving into DaVinci though

AI Zimmer! Can't wait. A look into how Premiere's 'AI' has helped you would be really interesting. Thank you as always! 💯

Every time I see a prompt that includes "best quality" or "ambient occlusion", I die a little inside.
8k is mine. It's basically saying: I would like a higher resolution than you are capable of!
@@TheoreticallyMedia Bless you for understanding.
I've had a brief play with Clipdrop uncrop. The results appear softer than the original, probably easy to sort out in post but not ideal... yet...
Yeah, it’s got a bit to go. I always root for Stability, but it always feels like they’re a step behind. They’ll get there soon I hope

bro those results you were getting are literally GARBAGE TIER compared to photoshops Generative Fill that JUST WORKS… come on my guy 😂

I’m waiting on an ai software that can remove extra people from celebrity photo Ops that I got at various comic cons.
