hidden gem
this app is unique in that you can infinitely (presumably) chain and rearrange video effects seamlessly instead of having to render and save a video for one effect just to use it in the next. and the rearrangement of effects is done by dragging and connecting/reconnecting node inputs and outputs to each other — by way of what I’d have called a GUI in 2002, though the term seems too clunky for this.
it feels like I’ve been waiting for this app since 2002, back when I was using Max/MSP/Jitter on my MacBook. this reminds me of that in that it’s refreshing to use for its simplicity once you understand what’s happening. thank you for putting this out there. more people should find it and use it.
my only suggestions so far are that I’d like to be able to see an effect’s description and number of inputs without first having to activate it on the “stage,” and also that it would be wonderful to be able to quickly swap out or cycle through each somehow by way of the secondary long-press gesture (the one that brings up the option to delete the node) instead of having to back to the long menu docked on the left — necessitating some sort of elegant inline solution I guess? I’m sure you’ll know it when you see it.
Hidden gem but...
YouTube has next to nothing as far as tutorials for video editing.. cannot find a used guide anywhere....
Response from developer
You can find a help document built-in to Bricolage, just tap the info ('i') icon in the upper right corner then pick 'Help Document' or 'Tutorials' to view the PDF, or the YouTube tutorials. We also have a playlist on our YouTube channel with some general node-based compositing tutorials for Nuke or other such apps.
Incredibly powerful
Don't Understand
If their is a way you could add an option where you could use a timeline instead of nodes that would be great 😌
How!?!?!?!
Does not work on iOS 10
If you have updated to iOS 10+, don't buy this until the publisher issues an update. Right now it is useless.
Response from developer
We hope the 2.0 version we just released addresses some of your concerns, though many users found the app quite useful under iOS 10. It is not clear when doing 'Open In' from another app, whether the artist wants to start a new project, or add the source into the existing project. In v2.0 you can open .cube 3D LUT files from other apps, and they are added to your color correction lookup table library.
Shapes nodes
Response from developer
Update: v2.0 has brought those nodes to the iPhone, and made the iPhone/iPod experience better in many other ways as well. -------------- Previous: The Shapes and Cut-out nodes only work on the iPad at present. They are being reworked, as is much else, to work well on an iPhone. Please stay tuned...
