What’s Actually New Inside The Apps?
Final Cut Pro for Mac now includes MotionVFX. It adds thousands of effects, titles, transitions, and templates. You also get advanced features like rotoscoping, tracking, and color-grading tools.
Even better, you can now open a timeline image in Pixelmator Pro and send it back without reimporting. The app’s Generate Fill feature lets you circle something in a picture, describe a change in plain text, and get a result that not only fulfills the command but also matches the surrounding light, perspective, and texture.
