Larry has already switched to doing most of his compression using this software. This session shows you why. SESSION DESCRIPTION ff-Works is a front-end to ffMPEG, a highly-regarded, open-source compression engine. When you combine ff-Works with ffMPEG, you get a very powerful, very flexible, very high quality media transcoding/compression tool. In this session, Larry Jordan shows how to use this software. Whether you edit using Avid, Adobe or Apple, ff-Works provides features, control and quality that are not available in Apple Compressor or Adobe Media Encoder. This short video excerpt illustrates how to customize audio and video compression settings. This session covers: * How the interface works * How to import media and apply existing presets * How to create custom presets * How to create files for social media and YouTube * How to use Watch Folders to automate compression * How to resize, deinterlace and trim footage * How to add watermarks, closed captions, and chapter markers If you like this video, why not become a member?
