Monthly Montage: November 2024
Introducing workspaces, AI video search, chroma key & blend modes
The time of year for reflection and gratitude is fast approaching. In the cutting room of life, we face our fair bit of challenges. But those challenges are so much easier to crush alongside the cast & crew of Sequence, who have been hard at work getting Sequence ready for its close up...
New from the studio
Fresh from our new digs in Downtown Long Beach, we're dropping our latest passion project: "guys we need to post a video" out now on the Sequence YouTube Channel.
This bad boy represents the most technically ambitious in-app edit in Sequence to date, and we can't wait to keep pushing the boundaries of the product with our own videos.
Introducing: Workspaces
We created Sequence not just to be another NLE, but to be the production hub for your entire team. With Team Workspaces, that production hub becomes more defined. Now, everyone in a team workspace can keep track of the status of all the projects, dive into the the latest work from a project, manage settings, and more — all without needing to open up the timeline.
Introducing: Chroma Key and Blend Modes
Our CTO Brian just wrapped on a killer trilogy: Chroma Keying, Cropping, and Blend Modes are now in the can! No more roundtripping to other apps when you need to pull a clean key or stack some sweet overlays.
Timeline Improvements
We're constantly working to make the timeline as comfortable and easy to use for editors of all skill levels. Now you can navigate your timeline by jumping between edit points with up/down arrow keys, watch your timeline back at different speeds with JKL key playback, select clips using the WASD keys, and use multi-select and copy/paste across the editor!
Work-in-Progress: AI Video Search
While everyone's been going crazy over AI, we're taking the Christopher Nolan approach — practical effects first, but with some mind-bending tech where it counts.
We aren't focused on "generative ai" at this time, we've built an AI/ML reasoning layer across Sequence projects that can analyze all your media to form content intelligence + understanding — allowing you to search, reference, and interpret media across your project conversationally.
While these are still the early days of internal testing, we're really excited about the new dimension of malleability this adds to media for professionals and novices alike.

That's all for now! Talk to you soon and see you in the timeline :)
Cheers,
