The Apple Motion app was nine years old back in 2013.
It wasn’t good enough then to make this video. It still isn’t.

Final Cut Pro 12.4 was released on Tuesday.

Looks like Final Cut Pro 13 will be easier for people to migrate from old-fashioned timelines (@MediaComposer, Adobe Premiere, Resolve).
