I don’t wish to rain on the parade of this, but it would be great to see ML kick on in Flame as it seems to have been introduced and it is not no longer going the great guns that it departed the station on, without arriving at its destination. Some aspects blew my mind, in terms of the imaginative usages, and how it rippled out into Flame’s toolsets (like that fantastic idea of holding out people/moving in the new camera tracker through ML!), but the instability of generated spaces has remained (the instability of the mattes should not be the stable signature feature!) and so this really needs “finishing.” Hopefully this gets going again soon as it’s been a bit of a long-ball feature (a soccer metaphor). Still have high hopes for this, but it’s not a binary feature that hit it’s 1.0 presence.
Cheers
Tony
