Which one best suits your needs?<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s been the subject of heated bar debates and post-production meetups since the advent of the two programs \u2014 Final Cut or Premiere? Both Mac-heads and die-hard Adobe fans have battled it out for the better part of two decades with this argument. The top market share position has ebbed and flowed between both programs due to updates on both sides of the aisle, and frequent shifts in what editors prefer at the time.<\/p>\n<p>While the market share has lost its majority to NLE&#8217;s such as DaVinci Resolve and the industry titan Avid Media Composer, the overwhelming choice for your common editor will boil down to Adobe Premiere and Final Cut.<\/p>\n<p>But who is right? Who is wrong? Well, as with all choices, it matters on what you use it for. Today, we are going to take a dive into each program, what strengths they have to offer, as well as the weaknesses they present.

Most post houses and small production studios either rely on Avid Media Composer or Premiere.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a program that&#8217;s easy to learn, yet hard to master. A beginner could drop some clips on a timeline and figure out an export in just a few days, but when it comes to the more complicated maneuvers in this NLE, it takes a little bit more knowhow compared to Final Cut. So what are the best things that Premiere has to offer?<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"excellent-organization-and-timeline-layout\">+: Excellent Organization and Timeline Layout<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_122979\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122979\" class=\"wp-image-122979 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Organization\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Organization\" width=\"755\" height=\"238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg?resize=300,95 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg?resize=277,87 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg?resize=359,113 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg?resize=543,171 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg?resize=560,177 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/premieretimeline.jpg?resize=150,47 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122979\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Premiere Pro: Organization<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As someone who learned NLE layouts and workflows from Final Cut 7 way back in 2010, this timeline is comfortable and familiar. It magnetizes when you need it, and lets you space out clips when you don&#8217;t. The flexibility of the timeline is also a huge plus for the program \u2014 it can handle a project with just one video and audio layer, but can also manage twenty-layer timeline projects.<\/p>\n<p>The asset organization in Premiere is one of my favorite parts of the software. The bin organization structure is very clear and concise. It dutifully holds a feature&#8217;s worth of clips in color-coded bins that transfer to the timeline with a simple drag.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"integration-with-motion-graphics-software-after-effects\">+ : Integration with Motion Graphics Software (After Effects)<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_122965\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122965\" class=\"wp-image-122965 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 After Effects\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 After Effects\" width=\"755\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg?resize=300,163 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg?resize=277,150 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg?resize=359,194 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg?resize=543,294 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg?resize=560,303 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/aftereffectd.jpg?resize=150,81 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122965\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Premiere Pro and After Effects<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Premiere comes with integration with After Effects, its companion motion graphics software.

As a beginner you can maneuver your way through the program without too much hassle. Then, as you grow into a better editor, more functions and tools are there for you to scale up your projects from a small two-minute short film to a 120 minute documentary feature with hundreds of hours worth of footage.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"frequent-program-drops-and-crashes\">&#8211; : Frequent Program Drops and Crashes<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_122977\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122977\" class=\"wp-image-122977 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Program Crashes\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Program Crashes\" width=\"755\" height=\"585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg?resize=300,232 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg?resize=277,215 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg?resize=359,278 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg?resize=543,421 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg?resize=560,434 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/projectpreviewpremiere.jpg?resize=150,116 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122977\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Premiere Pro: Frequent Program Crashes<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Onto the gripes of the program.

When working with high caliber clips such as 4K or RAW formats, it&#8217;s almost a certainty that you have to cut down the preview quality of the video by at least half or a fourth to get it to play normally (unless you are working on a monster PC or Mac). This also happens on the timeline from time to time if you&#8217;re working with different layers of color grading or effects. It&#8217;s one of the most common complaints about the program. With other programs such as Final Cut and Resolve that have lossless playback, it&#8217;s time for Premiere to catch up to the competition.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"final-cut-299\">Final Cut \u2014 $299<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_122970\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122970\" class=\"wp-image-122970 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Final Cut\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Final Cut\" width=\"755\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg?resize=300,194 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg?resize=277,179 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg?resize=359,232 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg?resize=543,351 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg?resize=560,362 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcfullscreen.jpg?resize=150,97 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122970\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Final Cut: Pros and Cons<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Final Cut has been either sitting comfortably on the top of the industry standard or slumped down in the lower rungs for the past two decades. When Final Cut 7 was released in 2007 to compete with Avid Media Composer, it quickly became the indie darling NLE. It was even used as the chosen NLE for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fcp.co\/final-cut-pro\/news\/195-coen-brothers-use-fcp-to-edit-true-grit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Coen Brother&#8217;s production of <em>True Grit<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When I started out in my editing career way back in 2008, I first learned non-linear editing through Final Cut 7. But, in 2011, Apple execs made a bold choice. They released Final Cut X, which at the time cut out a lot of the features and recognizable UX that Final Cut 7 offered in the name of &#8220;innovation.&#8221; This angered a lot of editors, who suddenly and loudly moved over to Premiere to do their editing. Over the past decade, Apple put in a lot of work to try and grab back their corner of the market share. That appempt has mostly been successful.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s go into what the current iteration of Final Cut has to offer you, as well as its drawbacks.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"seamless-video-playback\">+ : Seamless Video Playback<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_122967\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122967\" class=\"wp-image-122967 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Seamless Video Playback\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Seamless Video Playback\" width=\"755\" height=\"472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg?resize=300,188 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg?resize=277,173 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg?resize=359,224 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg?resize=543,339 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg?resize=560,350 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/clippreviewFC.jpg?resize=150,94 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122967\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Final Cut: Seamless Playback<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This to me is one of the clear advantages Final Cut has over Premiere.

This is also thanks to its drag-and-drop effects that you can preview and load in just a matter of seconds.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"extremely-simple-ux\">+ \/ &#8211; : Extremely Simple UX<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_122973\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122973\" class=\"wp-image-122973 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Simple UX\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Simple UX\" width=\"755\" height=\"548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg?resize=300,218 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg?resize=277,201 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg?resize=359,261 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg?resize=543,394 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg?resize=560,406 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/FCUX.jpg?resize=150,109 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122973\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Too?) Simple UX<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Our first plus <em>and<\/em> minus of the list comes from Final Cut&#8217;s extremely simple design.<\/p>\n<p>For editors coming from iMovie who are looking for more features, it&#8217;s a seamless step up into the professional editing realm. But, for seasoned editors who have been working in Premiere and Avid Media Composer, the simplistic design is almost limiting. When you are comfortable with the timeline of other NLEs, Final Cut is a radical jump from any other in the market. Its magnetic timeline is confusing for editors who like to organize different sections on the timeline in their own specific way.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"disorganized-media-storage\">&#8211; : Disorganized Media Storage<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_122966\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122966\" class=\"wp-image-122966 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Disorganized Storage\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Disorganized Storage\" width=\"755\" height=\"691\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg?resize=300,275 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg?resize=277,254 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg?resize=359,329 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg?resize=543,497 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg?resize=560,513 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/binlayoutFC.jpg?resize=150,137 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122966\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Final Cut: Disorganized Storage<\/p><\/div>\n<p>My biggest gripe with the Final Cut design is how they set up their bin layout for clip storage. Coming from someone who is more comfortable organizing their clips into individual bins, the &#8220;Project&#8221; and &#8220;Event&#8221; tabs are a clear step in a different direction from other NLEs. It may be comfortable to some editors, but from someone who likes a &#8220;traditional&#8221; layout, it just doesn&#8217;t cut it.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"so-which-one-should-you-pick\">So, Which One Should You Pick?<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_122974\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-122974\" class=\"wp-image-122974 size-full\" title=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Which to Choose\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Video Editing Programs: Final Cut Pro vs. Premiere Pro \u2014 Which to Choose\" width=\"755\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg?resize=300,195 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg?resize=277,180 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg?resize=359,233 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg?resize=543,352 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg?resize=560,363 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/fcvspremiere.jpg?resize=150,97 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-122974\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Choosing the Right One for You<\/p><\/div>\n<p>So obviously, this is going to come down to personal preference when deciding between the two.

Are you a seasoned editor who wants a traditional NLE with the backing power of the Adobe Suite? Then Premiere is a solid bet.<\/p>\n<p>The only way you can really get to know both programs is actually editing a project in both.
