For an interview like this you might want to use a real video camera which is not limited to 30 minutes. Just a little inexpensive Sony Handicam will do nicely.
The 30 minute limit has no technological explanation at all! It only has to do with EU tax legislation. If a camera can do more that 29: 59 in one gulp, it will be taxed as a video camera. So to avoid that tax, camera manufacturers of DSLRs have built in this limit.
There is also a file size limit: A camera is also taxed as a video camera if it can produce video files larger than 4gb - which is more like the 12 minutes you mentioned (depending on the resolution and the compression, of course. But the manufacturers have found a workaround: the cameras now keep recording past the 4gb, and at the end they just chop longer videos into 4gb chunks that you can easily merge in post.
I live in the EU, and do I agree with these taxes? NO!

I'm pretty sure Micrgrafix Picture Publisher came out with Layers first. It did pretty much everything better than photoshop for many years, but because it was PC only at the time, no designers knew about it. All designers using digital tools at the time were using Mac. Micrografix Designer was also way better than Illustrator (not sure if that was Aldus) but again, it was Windows (3. 1) only.
These days, Affinity Photo/Designer give Adobe a run for their money, and both Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer are fully available on iOS.

The argument against watermark is completely wrong. We photographers don't watermark images to avoid them getting stolen. We do it in order to promote our brand. People who download our images obviously are liking them. I want that everyone who download my images sees my logo every time he or she watches it. This establish my brand, and makes possible clients find me easily instead of having to research for the author of an anonymous photo.

Great interview! But regarding to Bridge I have a comment to make.
As a clinical photographer who also does general photography for my hospital, I don't want patient/medical photos in my database other than on secured drives and/or their medical file. This is all about privacy and medical confidentiality. So I use Lightroom for all general photos and Bridge for clinical stuff. I can do the same stuff, but all data is seperated.

One big advantage of Bridge over Lightroom is that (on Mac at least) it doesn't change the file creation date, only the modification date. Lightroom, on the other hand, does not restore the original file creation date when files are modified. This behaviour is inconsistent between the two apps, and stops me using Lightroom.

Love me some Kelby. Bert Monroy I think is the guy who really got me into Photoshop, especially the hybrid approach of using Photoshop and Illustrator together. I also agree Bridge sucks. I really wish they would update it though, as it's a god way to audition stock clips to pull into video projects, which I primarily do.

It feels good to hear such a professional express disdain for BRIDGE! I always wondered if I was missing something from not using it. It IS super slow!
I assumed Lightroom Cloud was the more advanced version. I was wrong! Classic = Pro
Also, interesting to hear about Photoshop's use in the movie industry.

According your question:
24: 14 the DSLR cameras just are able to record until 29: 59 secs it's due to they are called Camera DSLR, if the time exceeds the 30 mins recording the camera isn't called DSLR it's called CAMCORDER. (it's according some photo/video regulations and marketing)

I love this video. It's great to see two stars in front of the camera and sit down for an interesting chat.
Btw, the 30-minute-limit is a money-wise decision. Under 30 minutes recording video, the device is not classified as 'video recorder. ' On video recorders, a 5-12% customs duty applies.

Scott is great, I've bought many of his books in the effort to keep up with changing software in the printing industry. Now it's keeping up with the photographic industry! You can never know enough in today's world, thank you two for making learning fun.

I recently discovered your videos and loved them for pretty much the same reasons Scott mentioned in this video. One of Scott's books was my first education in photography. Was really amazing to stumble across a video with you two together. A true legend!

I agree about large watermarks ruining images. I usually include a small watermark in an area that doesn't stand out.
Not only does it say who I am, I include the Creative Commons license terms indicating how the image is allowed to be used by others.

Goodness, this man is a legend. His books helped me tremendously when I just started learning Photoshop, and I can't thank him enough. Got his books on digital photography too. One of the best teachers ever!

My two favorite Photoshop guys! You guys should think about a partnership on something. If you could translate your videos to books using Scotts writing style, you could do really well, Unmesh.

Great interview. Interesting, thoughtful questions, & perhaps what I liked best was that you did not interrupt Scott or try to re-explain what he just said. Kept it moving. Great style, all the best!

Great interview.
So much hate for Bridge. I love it - but then maybe its because I'm not so much a photographer but a digital artist (I take photos, but they become elements of a larger piece)

Two of my favorite instructors. I've been lucky enough to meet and chat with Scott at several Photoshop World conferences. Looking for ward to meeting Unmesh one day.
