Markers, one-click look copying and 12 new transitions

Timeline#

• Marker — a coloured note on the ruler: it moves with its clip, and clip edges and elements snap to markers. Keys M, Shift+M and Alt+M — on the web and on an iPad or Mac with a keyboard.
• Copy look and Paste look — speed, sound, colour, effect, transition, animations, mask, background and framing from one clip to another or to all of them at once (⌥⌘C and ⌥⌘V).
• Slip — pick a different part of the same source for a B-roll clip without changing its length or place in the reel.

Picture and sound#

• Stabilize is stronger: two passes and a slight zoom instead of mirrored edges.
• A cover with a title — styled like the hook or as a callout; Cover as the first frame — for networks where you can't pick a cover.
• Fade in and Fade out for a clip's sound and for music.
• Colour by speaker — captions of two speakers in different colours.

12 new transitions#

Slides and wipes in all four directions, Circle open and circle close, zoom in, Pixelate, Radial wipe and Noise dissolve. The preview draws them the same way as the finished reel, on the web and in the app.

AI director#

The director edits with more restraint: clean cuts at natural speed, speech never sped up, no freeze frames, rare accents with an explanation. The three versions of a reel are ready sooner.

Fixes#

• In the app the preview no longer starts by itself when you open the editor, cuts don't jump or show bits of the source during playback, and the timeline scrolls smoothly.
• “None” for the music fade-in and fade-out now means no fade in the finished reel too.
