Adobe CC 2014 vs Adobe CC


  1. Adobe CC 2014 was released on 18 June 2014.
  2. When I updated the Creative Cloud desktop app, a new version of each Adobe app was installed (Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Audition, After Effects, Illustrator and even Media Encoder)
  3. The previous CC version was not be replaced, but kept alongside the new CC 2014 version. (Note that Premiere Pro CC could not open on my computer while the other apps could)
  4. Having two versions of everything takes up precious hard disk space. 
  5. Can we delete the previous CC version? Not "delete", but they can be uninstalled. 
  6. WARNING fellow users: Do not uninstall the previous version until you have synced you customized setting and presets.
  7. I noticed from online discussions the problems that other users faced.
  8. Photoshop presets have to be transferred from the previous CC to the new Photoshop CC 2014. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/preset-migration-photoshop-cc.html
  9. The fast way to migrate customized presets is to go to the previous PS CC user menu > Sync Settings Now (mac: Application menu > username, pc: Edit > username). Then go to the new PS CC 2014, go to Sync Settings Preferences and choose Download the Settings.
  10. To uninstall the previous version of Media Encoder CC, you have to uninstall Premiere Pro CC and/or After Effects CC.
  11. Note to Adobe: This installing process is a lot of extra work and time wasted.  Not good.
  12. New features in Adobe video apps include Live Text Templates, Masking and Tracking plus new integration that leverage the power of Adobe After Effects CC inside Adobe Premiere Pro CC.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
