NAB Presentation - Adobe Stage: Optimizing Post Finishing Workflow for Large-Scale Media
In April of 2019 I attended NAB in Las Vegas and gave a series of presentations and interviews on the workflow I developed in audio post finishing entirely in Adobe Premiere Pro for VICE NEWS Tonight on HBO. With Adobe Premiere Pro, we have seen some remarkable gains reducing mix time by over 80% while delivering Emmy award winning content for our nightly thirty minute show.
Above is a recording of my presentation at the Adobe stage detailing how the workflow came together, how we organize as a team and the engineering design features that allow us to deliver a rapid turnaround nightly news show in a documentary style format.
