The Offset Podcast EP052: Conform.Tools
In this episode of The Offset Podcast, we're joined by Brandon Thomas & Stefan Allen from Conform.Tools. Conforming is one of those processes in modern postproduction and finishing that can be technically challenging and a huge time suck. Different NLEs and color/finishing tools all think slightly differently. For example; positioning or a speed change in Premiere Pro might not show up correctly when conformed into DaVinci Resolve. Over the years editors, colorists, and conform artists have built hacks and built up institutional knowledge of workflows for moving projects from one system to another but even at their best, the methods can be tedious and are seldom set it and forget it. Conform.Tools is a suite of tools that is poised to really change how conforms are done making them efficient, fast and dare we say fun! We were super excited to sit down with the guys and talk about the challenges of conforming and how conform.tools can help on your text project. Some of the specifics we discuss in this episode include:What makes conforming so challengingThe problem of different math and algorithms between different applicationsDealing with common conform problems like in/out point slippage, reel names, and other timecode issuesWorking with sizing and speed differences including speed ramps, interpreted clips, and speed interpolationGoals of conform.tools and looking at the workflowConform.Tools module: Timeline ExchangeConform.Tools module: i20Conform.Tools module Conform Connect including the forthcoming desktop appThe team at NAB & The NAB 2026 Colorist MixerAnd more!Check out offsetpodcast.com for our entire library of episodes.
