WEBVTT

00:00:02.040 --> 00:00:08.160
this is the brand new apple pencil Pro

00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:13.280
it gives artists pressure sensitivity tilt the brand new and magical barrel

00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:18.680
roll feature alongside the squeeze and double tap functions at

00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:24.599
$130 plus the latest iPad with all its capabilities it is an impressive piece

00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:26.599
of Kit this Wacom cintiq Pro doesn't

00:00:24.599 --> 00:00:31.039
have barrel roll tilt requires meticulous configuration in Photoshop

00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:36.559
and you can't take it anywhere either for all this you'll have to Dole out

00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:42.600
$3500 and yet all the professional artists I've met use this for their work

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:42.600
and not Apple

00:00:45.239 --> 00:00:51.840
why to find out I connected with professional artist Elizabeth Scott

00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:55.920
whose credits include background work on Rick and

00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:59.320
Morty it was really cool that was the second show I ever worked on and uh it's

00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:05.680
cool to work on a show that has such a big name that so people know she too

00:01:02.120 --> 00:01:08.040
uses a cintique the older hd22 model for

00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:13.280
her professional background work but she also has a six gen iPad with a pencil

00:01:10.520 --> 00:01:17.640
too I'm not a huge Tech person so I won't spend money on Tech if I don't

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:19.640
have to um and I think that was at the

00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.360
time and even now like the cheapest version of the iPad you can use with the

00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:27.759
apple pencil so what do you mean by you're not much of a tech person I uh

00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:32.320
don't care to learn anything about tech I don't need to know

00:01:30.320 --> 00:01:36.439
I guess like so the 22hd scentique that I use that's what I

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:40.320
learned to draw on in school that's what I used at work I'm worried that this is

00:01:39.159 --> 00:01:46.040
going to be a lot harder than I initially imagined but considering what's new on the pencil Pro I'm sure

00:01:44.759 --> 00:01:52.880
she's going to love it are you ready to try these things out yeah okay let's go

00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:56.840
I hope she's going to love it okay so

00:01:52.880 --> 00:02:01.600
this is the new iPad Pro with the new

00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:03.600
pencil Pro let me give it a try sure

00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:08.239
okay the first thing I noticed about it is I don't like how clicky the pen is on

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:11.400
the screen oh I don't like the feeling of drawing on glass and I feel like my

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:16.440
hands kind of sticking to it a little bit well I might have a solution to give

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:21.080
the iPad a fighting chance and that's this video sponsor paperlike though it

00:02:19.640 --> 00:02:28.080
means I have to put the screen protector on which is a very daunting task so I'll

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:30.440
go do this and you can try the cintique pro

00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:37.000
all right so I guess we should show her the best of what Wacom has to

00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:43.120
offer at $3500 the 27-in cintiq pro is the

00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:47.239
largest and best in their lineup as the top-end drawing tablet it is the dream

00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:52.959
for all artists available in three sizes all with precise UHD resolution 120 HZ

00:02:50.760 --> 00:02:56.720
refresh rate and over 8,000 levels of pressure sensitivity from the propen

00:02:58.440 --> 00:03:06.080
3 first thought is I like the way that this pen feels the antique pen that I'm

00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:09.159
used to is a little bit thicker I like that this is skinny it just kind of

00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:13.560
feels like a regular pencil it's nice and light are you talking about the pen

00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:18.360
yeah it's it's actually really customizable oh is it yeah let me go at

00:03:15.799 --> 00:03:24.799
the things unlike an apple pencil the Wacom Pro pen is customizable to your

00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:27.519
heart's content with two grips weights

00:03:24.799 --> 00:03:31.680
extra buttons and two different nibs so how did you custom the pens

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:35.640
so I added a weight to make it a little bit heavier on the bottom I also changed

00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:39.480
the tip to a felt tip because it feels a little bit nicer and less clicky on the

00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:42.560
screen and normally I have a grip on my pen but I like how uh skinny and light

00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:51.720
it is without it so I left it

00:03:51.720 --> 00:03:59.000
off oh my goodness this looks pretty good so what are you drawing I'm drawing

00:03:56.239 --> 00:04:02.040
a background I uh use scenes to draw backgrounds for work

00:04:00.480 --> 00:04:05.760
so this is what I'm used to working with professionally so what background are

00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:10.319
you drawing there's a lot going on in this this is a little very formal space

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:15.040
a little Heritage House I guess just something I haven't drawn before it's

00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:18.759
not just the pen you can customize too the cintique pro also has control

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:23.560
buttons on either side of the screen and on the pen that could be mapped to any

00:04:20.840 --> 00:04:29.720
keyboard shortcut you desire oh very cool I think my first

00:04:27.479 --> 00:04:33.440
impression is having the express Keys is is really nice personally I use a lot of

00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:39.000
functions on the keyboard so I don't know if I could go without a keyboard

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:41.080
but um on the pen having an undo feature

00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:45.680
is very helpful and I would use that all the time I will say that it does require

00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:49.520
a bit of time to get the feel for the buttons and in my experience the ones in

00:04:47.400 --> 00:04:55.639
the back of monitor do activate quite easily too okay I'm noticing you're

00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:57.880
wearing this kind of fancy glove what is

00:04:55.639 --> 00:05:01.160
that uh so this is a drawing glove um you don't need it I just find uh that

00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:06.320
when you're drawing for a long time and the screen gets warm sometimes your hand kind of sticks to the screen and so it's

00:05:04.280 --> 00:05:09.960
easier to draw smoother lines one of the things you're paying for with this

00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:13.280
sentique Pro is the display's quality and so I got Labs to run some tests to

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:18.080
see how close the display matches whack's claims indeed it covers the

00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:21.800
gamuts when in Native mode but Strays from its claimed figures due to some

00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:26.960
aggressive clamping when in the targeted color profile modes so what do you

00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:29.840
picture this is a low angle too so what what's happening in what's going to

00:05:28.080 --> 00:05:35.120
happen in this scene that you've created um well I'm used to drawing at uh at

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:39.120
pretty much eye level so sometimes it's nice to just play around with angles try

00:05:36.960 --> 00:05:42.800
something you wouldn't normally do some like it's a little more of a

00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:46.199
storytelling tool like maybe this is from like a child's perspective or A

00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:50.000
Pet's perspective just adds a little more to the narrative with the new

00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:55.840
cintique Pro like how does it compare to the one you've been using it's

00:05:52.039 --> 00:05:57.639
bigger and the screen is cleaner um I

00:05:55.840 --> 00:06:03.080
don't notice a huge difference the thing that stands out to me actually is I like

00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:04.919
the feel of the pen better I guess I do

00:06:03.080 --> 00:06:09.080
notice you said there are more sensitivity levels yeah there yeah I

00:06:06.919 --> 00:06:12.639
noticed that a little bit if you didn't mention that to me I probably wouldn't

00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:18.360
have noticed it okay so you've had a lot of seat time on this I want you to try

00:06:14.840 --> 00:06:22.080
the iPad sure with the paper like screen

00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:23.919
protector uh to see why you don't use it

00:06:22.080 --> 00:06:28.199
okay for work you mean for work yeah sure for artists like Elizabeth who are

00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:33.280
missing the tactile feeling from their Wacom an iPad with the paperlike screen

00:06:30.960 --> 00:06:37.680
protector just might be the ticket there's so much dust manufactured in

00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:41.880
Switzerland it uses their exclusive micro bead technology called Nano dots

00:06:39.880 --> 00:06:45.160
to add resistance and improve haptic feedback emulating the feeling of

00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:50.520
writing on paper does it make a difference absolutely yeah it um it

00:06:47.919 --> 00:06:53.919
wouldn't have like been a huge bother before but now that I have it with a

00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:58.639
screen protector it feels it feels a lot better there's less um less resistance

00:06:55.840 --> 00:07:03.919
when you're moving your hand hm thanks to the Nano do technology yeah so if you

00:07:01.919 --> 00:07:07.840
want to replicate a paperlike feel and enhance your apple pencil Pro experience

00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:11.800
check out paperlike at the link in the description below so now that we have

00:07:09.919 --> 00:07:16.199
the right surface let's get back to the iPad as I've learned in the past

00:07:14.440 --> 00:07:19.599
pressure sensitivity is very important for digital artists and the original

00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:24.840
pencil brought it together with automatic tilt sensitivity too which

00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:29.639
Elizabeth doesn't use in her work it seems with an apple pencil and actually

00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:34.599
even with the like third party cheap ones mhm you can have a tool where it's

00:07:32.919 --> 00:07:40.800
when you go straight on it looks like that and when you go on an edge it looks

00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.560
like that that's really nice it is but

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:46.840
do you not that doesn't there's not a thing on here no not that I know of so

00:07:45.599 --> 00:07:51.280
then how do you adjust tilt like you have to do it manually uh or do you care

00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:56.440
um sometimes if I'm doing like shading or something I'll use a different brush or I'll lower the opacity pressure

00:07:54.319 --> 00:08:02.159
sensitivity uh is what I use most of the time huh so like all professional

00:07:58.960 --> 00:08:04.319
artists just just don't care about tilt

00:08:02.159 --> 00:08:07.720
um maybe some do I don't really use it for the work that I do and none of your

00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:13.560
colleagues have been like what you don't have tilt on no I haven't been bullied for

00:08:10.159 --> 00:08:14.960
it the Wacom does support tilt but it

00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:19.680
requires setting your brushes up manually in the respective settings to

00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:23.919
get it to work which as we've learned is something Elizabeth definitely won't do

00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:28.800
but what about the other magical features added to the pencil Pro so you

00:08:26.440 --> 00:08:33.719
use Photoshop professionally on the PC but I you told me that you also use

00:08:30.919 --> 00:08:38.519
procreate on the iPad exclusively and that is where the magic of the new

00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:39.959
pencil Pro will uh rise to the top so

00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:44.000
they've added two significant new features one is squeeze which you can

00:08:41.839 --> 00:08:48.279
set to open up a quick menu and the other is barrel roll and there's a

00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:53.680
sensor that senses the rotate of the pencil and then can apply that to

00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:54.920
certain brushes in procreate okay that

00:08:53.680 --> 00:09:02.040
I'll be interested to see how that is cuz if it works smoothly that'll be really helpful so just squeeze oh

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:07.160
interesting this could be really handy I'm going to

00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:09.440
try just drawing something like that and

00:09:07.160 --> 00:09:13.640
then horizontally oh it flips the whole canvas okay I'm used to being able to

00:09:11.760 --> 00:09:19.680
flip the drawing it's cool that it flips the entire canvas well I know fiddle

00:09:16.160 --> 00:09:23.959
around see see how the B Works ooh

00:09:19.680 --> 00:09:25.120
that's really nice I would um man I

00:09:23.959 --> 00:09:29.079
would use that all the time I'm kind of surprised that that's not um a basic

00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:33.399
feature in this antique for example cuz I feel like everyone would use that all

00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:36.240
the time uh well they told me it was and

00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:40.120
no one used it oh so and then they discontinued the pen that supported it

00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:42.839
it was really good I was I was really impressed by it when you told me that

00:09:41.560 --> 00:09:48.000
was a feature I was kind of like that sounds too good to be true I'll believe it when I see it cuz I personally like

00:09:45.760 --> 00:09:50.600
brushes that are long and skinny and so every time you have to rotate when you

00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:54.839
want to do a new stroke you have to rightclick rotate the brush there are

00:09:52.839 --> 00:10:00.680
occasions where it's like a little bit jittery I feel like but I would use that

00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:02.519
all the time why

00:10:00.680 --> 00:10:06.920
um because well being able to see where your brush is going to be and what angle

00:10:04.079 --> 00:10:10.320
it's at is fantastic because without that sometimes you put a stroke down and

00:10:08.920 --> 00:10:13.640
it's not exactly the way you want it so you have to undo it um so being able to

00:10:12.160 --> 00:10:19.240
see in advance where the brush is going to be is awesome okay so why don't we

00:10:16.959 --> 00:10:23.000
open up the iPad version of Photoshop and have you finish your drawing on here

00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:26.480
the lowest price of entry for someone looking to get an apple pencil Pro is

00:10:24.920 --> 00:10:31.279
actually $730 because you'll need to buy an M2

00:10:28.959 --> 00:10:35.760
iPad air to go with it mercifully Apple now offers a 13-in version for only $200

00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:40.600
more instead of forcing you to go with a large Pro like the one we're using here

00:10:38.920 --> 00:10:46.920
this one cost $1,300 so I'm not as familiar with the

00:10:44.920 --> 00:10:54.120
iPad version of Photoshop so it's taken me a second to to get acquainted with it

00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:56.639
that's understandable uh okay one thing

00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:59.920
that I notice right away uh for what I do professionally is I use the transform

00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:03.160
tool a lot there's a few different versions of the transform tool and

00:11:01.680 --> 00:11:07.639
immediately I think that would be kind of difficult to do on here Apple says

00:11:05.680 --> 00:11:11.240
the iPad is a computer but as I've complained about it in the past apps are

00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:14.279
just different on it and for an established professional like Elizabeth

00:11:12.800 --> 00:11:18.920
any limitations to how the software operates isn't on starter oh man I don't

00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:25.279
know what any of these are so this so you don't like this no

00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:30.000
immediately uh it would take some time to get used to the iPad supports side

00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:34.320
car so you literally can plug your iPad into your Mac and it becomes

00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:38.320
another screen oh okay yeah now I'm at home I like this better this is actually

00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:44.680
this is actually pretty nice I wasn't sure um because the screen is smaller

00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:47.519
than the centique but this is pretty

00:11:44.680 --> 00:11:51.800
good the icons are a bit smaller but like not enough that it bothers me and

00:11:50.079 --> 00:11:55.600
it doesn't feel like it's like low res or anything like that I mean you do kind

00:11:53.639 --> 00:11:59.839
of get like a weird little blob at the beginning sometimes is it a deal breaker

00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:03.680
yeah I think it would get get really annoying after a while I'm

00:12:01.760 --> 00:12:07.920
going to try it with smoothing and see how much of a difference that makes yeah

00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:11.399
it still does it that that to me is kind of annoying so it's not the screen

00:12:08.959 --> 00:12:16.240
protector I think it's maybe just it's it's some sort of pencil connection

00:12:13.199 --> 00:12:18.040
thing this is so close the seamless way

00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:22.320
the iPad works is a drawing tablet with a Mac is surprising and impressive but

00:12:20.680 --> 00:12:27.360
there are just a few niggles that make it less than perfect but Wacom has

00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:32.480
another portable alternative option for artists it's called the moving and it's

00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:38.000
a super thin 13-in OLED monitor with all the same capability as the cintique so

00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:40.399
it uses the same pen just is not quite as customizable they don't have the

00:12:39.160 --> 00:12:47.120
weights they just have a couple extra nibs in the back but it's exactly the same pen that you you were using before

00:12:44.360 --> 00:12:51.880
uh let's see if it does the same glitch sure that we were having an issue with

00:12:49.040 --> 00:12:55.800
on the the pressure sensitivity glitch same brush turn I'm going to turn off

00:12:53.680 --> 00:13:00.000
the smoothing no that feels really nice

00:12:58.760 --> 00:13:04.720
actually so this actually was now working better than the iPad and pencil

00:13:01.800 --> 00:13:08.440
through sidecar y yeah like how much better well there's not that glitch

00:13:06.800 --> 00:13:12.240
which is really nice and also just in general it feels a lot smoother it's not

00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:17.320
as jittery as the apple pencil so there's a bit of a compromise with the

00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:19.040
pencil it's like usable but I also like

00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:22.959
like the feel of this pencil better and I found myself a couple times

00:13:20.800 --> 00:13:26.920
accidentally like squeezing the apple pencil so the menu would pop up um which

00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:31.839
I don't know I guess you could get used to but um just as someone who's not used

00:13:29.880 --> 00:13:35.639
to them I really like the feel of this Labs testing of this little screen

00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:40.680
showed that it can display a lot of colors just not as accurately as either

00:13:37.959 --> 00:13:44.600
the cintiq pro or of course the OLED iPad Pro likely because of a gamma

00:13:42.959 --> 00:13:50.759
tracking issue they noticed on all of the tests the centique is the industry

00:13:47.839 --> 00:13:55.880
standard so I would say I would say go with the centique I really liked the

00:13:52.800 --> 00:13:59.279
model we use today but I think the mink

00:13:55.880 --> 00:14:01.279
is probably next under that for me and

00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:05.240
then I'd probably put the iPad at the bottom if you're thinking of working

00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:09.199
professionally but again I really like the iPad for procreate I just like them

00:14:07.079 --> 00:14:14.120
for different things for personal work uh the iPad's really portable I like how

00:14:12.199 --> 00:14:17.440
simple the interface is with procreate but if you're just going to be sitting

00:14:15.199 --> 00:14:21.560
at a desk which a lot of people in the industry are then it's nice to have like

00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:26.600
a big tablet that you can draw on the big Advantage with the antique is it so

00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:30.759
big that's what I like about it I don't know you just want a big iPad yeah I

00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:34.120
guess I do like a 20in iPad yeah that'd be perfect what features from the iPad

00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:38.720
would you want on the cintique barrel roll and hover I'm going to go home and

00:14:35.920 --> 00:14:42.720
be thinking about how much I like it next time I draw on my iPad I'm going to

00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:46.160
be like it's not the same all right well it looks like despite their vast

00:14:44.199 --> 00:14:50.440
differences Elizabeth is going to go out there and get an iPad and apple pencil

00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:55.040
Pro I cannot stress enough how much I won't spend money on Tech if I don't

00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:56.680
have to so um I think that is something

00:14:55.040 --> 00:15:02.399
I will look forward to buying when my iPad dies but it's not enough for me to

00:14:59.800 --> 00:15:07.759
switch right now while my iPad still works oh wow I love what she did with

00:15:05.800 --> 00:15:12.959
the place I though I haven't felt this short since I was a boy anyway thanks

00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:17.440
Elizabeth for drawing this Mac Address I'm curious in the comments of you

00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:21.959
artists whom of you use a Wacom stique and an iPad or both and if you want to

00:15:20.079 --> 00:15:25.800
watch another video we've done you can check out the one with Audrey where we

00:15:23.680 --> 00:15:28.800
compared an apple pencil to some cheaper alternatives
