What I'm Watching | October 2024

Time flies when you’re having so much fun watching these exciting new shows. Here’s my picks for the month of October.

The Penguin is better than I expected and shows that DC can launch a great TV series base on its superhero movie franchises.

And speaking of superhero franchises, The Franchise is a fun workplace sitcom, that reminds me of Silicon Valley. Who knows, they may actually launch a superhero franchise out of this show (like Aquaman from Entourage. Ha)

With Alfonso Cuarón at helm, need I say more?

I’ve been waiting for the season 2 of Hellbound, after the cliffhanger of season 1. It’s going to be wild,

As a fan of the video game series, I’m looking forward to its TV adaptation. And this will be a small consolation for the Tokyo Vice cancelation.

NEW WORK: Squid Game: Season 2 | Global Fan Theories With Cast

I had so much fun working on this promo for Netflix over the summer.

It was the perfect excuse to dive deep into Squid Game Season 1 last July, and I found the series both delightful and surprising, even though I already knew all its twists and turns.

This Korean version is new to me because I only worked on the English version above. Ha

I look forward to share more Squid Game Season 2 promos to come, as we draw near to its debut on December 26th.

Hey, Netflix just dropped the teaser for the second season of Squid Game!

What's coming in Premiere Pro 2025(!)

Not to be outdone by the recent release of DaVinci Resolve 19, Adobe is showcasing its latest updates & features for upcoming Premiere Pro 2025(!).

It’s great to see that some of the Davinci Resolve features have made into Premiere Pro, like a crop tool as a part of clip properties, instead of applying an effect. Competition is beautiful thing.

I was apprehensive about this emphasis on color management in Premiere Pro until I learned that Alexis Van Hurkman worked on it. If you are unfamiliar with his works, his book is a must-read for any colorists.

DaVinci Resolve 19 Released!

After a long wait, DaVinci Resolve 19 is released, finally. I will be using 18(.6.6 to be exact) professionally for the foreseeable future, but I installed 19 for the personal use/projects.

Here are the latest and the greatest features of 19, presented by the dedicated DR Youtube channels.

Getting familiar with DR 19 is going to keep me busy for the rest of September, so that I’ll be ready when there’s new projects that require 19 comes along.
