Re: Premiere Pro CS 6.0: First Impressions

Like Richard points out its important to keep in perspective the Prep-to-Edit (P2E) time and hard drive space requirements. Think of it like this, if you have to transcode all material before you can begin editing, where much of that is not in the final edit (Say a 10:1 ratio for scripted production) you are only needing to export 1/10th of the content at the end, which is actually a big deal. Lots of FCP workflow it was accepted to include into schedule a budget of time for the ingest/transcode, now it's a shift in budgeting time to export - same timeline for production, just a different weight on the back end as opposed to the front end. Can't apply the same paradigm of FCP workflow for PPro. End to end, you will find the Adobe way quicker and lighter on your resources such as HDD space. my 2c - JB
