Happy Wednesday! 👋
The love continues for Keyframe Toolbox, which is nice! 🥰
The amazing and wonderful Jenn Jager has released an awesome video about Keyframe Toolbox on YouTube:
Creator of Keyframe Toolbox, the equally amazing Iain Anderson has also written in-depth about Why you should care about keyframe graphs over on ProVideo Coalition, which is definitely worth a read!
If you haven't yet looked into Keyframe Toolbox and you're a Final Cut Pro editor, you absolutely should - Iain has worked really hard on the documentation on the website.
Unrelated, I watched I'm Still Here (2024) at the cinema on Monday night, and it's such a beautifully crafted film. Highly recommended!
