I own this book somewhere - it's quite an interesting 'read' but it is more on the 'arty/abstract' side of creative thought. I've recommended it to designers before - for editors it's... different.

Anyway if you like this type of book I can recommend "The art of looking sideways" - note it is as big as 'How Good' is small; but it's very thought provoking...

Logitech mx310. I've had 2 of these for about 8 years, never any issues. thumb and pinky buttons are super useful and intuitive. Not the most high-tech or modern mouse, but i love these things.

It's hard to find for cheap (pretty expensive on Amazon) but Selected Takes is pretty interesting. First-hand accounts of the editing process and their careers from several legendary names.

I'd switch to a mezzanine codec. ProRes, DnxHR (SQ or possibly HQX) or Cineform (3 or 4.) They will be much larger (1 GB in HD, 4 GB in 4k).

And build a preset for it for the future.

> Would switching the codec for previews have any unintended consequences?

Depends on what you switch it to.

> Is that something you would do just before exporting?

Once setup right, it becomes the new workflow.

> Then would you have to rerender anyways because you made that change?

You'd have to regenerate previews in the new codec. But once you set this up, it's taken care of.

> If the preview codec is terrible by default I'm sure that's for a reason.

Yes, MPEG2 is fast, and was (relatively) cheap when adobe set this up.

BTW, I'm not just your humble mod, I might have written this

If your work is paying for it then a 15" MBP is a no-brainer

It will handle Adobe CC just fine, doesn't run hot and loud like a gamer laptop, and the 2019 models fixed the keyboard and throttling issues from the 2016-2018 models

The official book from BMD is a totally decent primer of all of the tools.

In fact, if you get the kindle version it’s only $9.99 USD instead of $37.

You can use it without a kindle by just downloading the Kindle app (MacOS/PC/iOS/Android).
