Give him nine minutes, and Bojan Dulabic might just answer all your questions about how to use Wacom tablets for video editing and clear up any doubts you might have about getting one.
In this video for Filmmaking Today from Dulabic Studios, he unboxes the Intuos Pro 2019 Medium and demonstrates it with Adobe Premiere, going through how to program the Intuosโs shortcut buttons for max efficiency, navigate with both the pen and scroll wheel, and even most effectively use its touch functions, in the process tackling the question of just what you need it for.ย ย
Are you a video editor thinking about buying a tablet? Or maybe a tablet user thinking about trying videography? Weโd call this one a must-watch.
His conclusion?ย If you can spring for it, thereโs no reason not to: It can speed up your workflow and even save your wrist. โUsing a mouse is really not a comfortable thing. Itโs something we got used to, but โฆ to avoid carpal tunnel, itโs really not great,โ he says. โThis way, youโre basically using a penโitโs like youโre writing. Thatโs much better for your wrist.โ
…And as a bonus tip, he recommends, make sure to buy a wrist pad.
