Description:
In this episode, I share my experience editing a Thanksgiving special episode of the Kilowatt podcast entirely within Riverside. Transitioning from Final Cut Pro to Riverside presented challenges, prompting me to reflect on the importance of choosing efficient tools that align with my workflow. I discuss the role of AI in content creation, the risks of adopting too many platforms, and the significance of community collaboration among creators. We encourage listeners to explore tools that best fit their creative processes while anticipating future discussions on AI and creativity.
Key Takeaways:
- Editing inside Riverside can dramatically simplify workflows for certain projects.
- Creators often juggle too many tools—simplifying can save time and reduce friction.
- Switching software has both financial and emotional costs.
- AI is rapidly becoming a practical assistant for content creation, not just a novelty.
- Community conversations often uncover better tools and approaches than working alone.
- Free podcast hosting platforms exist, but “free” isn’t always the best fit for long-term goals.
- DaVinci Resolve’s stability makes it an appealing alternative to Premiere for many editors.
- The creator landscape is shifting toward integrated, all-in-one tools.
Quote Pull-Outs:
- “There are tools that help us create, but when they get in the way, it’s time to rethink.”
- “Switching tools isn't just a cost in money, it’s a cost in time and brainpower.”
- “AI isn’t replacing creativity; it’s removing the busywork.”
