generating animated subtitles; editing or extending music to match clip length; and matching tone, level and reverberance for dialogue.There are also new tools for recording new voiceovers during editing to match an edit.Workflow improvements include a dedicated curve view for keyframe editing; plus a new MultiText tool and updates to the Text+ tool for better control of the layout of on-screen text.For audio post work, the Fairlight page gets new AI features for removing silences from raw footage, and automatically balancing an audio mix.We dont cover video or audio editing on CG Channel, but you can find a complete list of changes via the links at the foot of the story.Codec and format supportOther key changes include native support for ProRes encoding on Windows and Linux systems as well as macOS.MV-HEVC encoding is now supported on systems with NVIDIA GPUs, and H.265 4:2:2 encoding and decoding are GPU-accelerated on NVIDIAs new Blackwell GPUs.Again, you can find a full list of changes to codec and platform support via the links at the foot of the story.Upcoming features include generative AI-based background extension.Future updates: new toolsets for immersive video and AI background generationBlackmagic Design also announced two upcoming features not present in the initial beta.Artists creating mixed reality content will get a new toolset for ingesting, editing and delivering immersive video for Apples Vision Pro headset.There will also be a new generative AI feature, Resolve FX AI Set Extender, available via Blackmagic Cloud.More details will be announced later this year, but Blackmagic says that it will enable users to generate new backgrounds for shots by entering simple text prompts.The video above shows a range of use cases, including extending or adding objects to existing footage, and generating a complete new background behind a foreground object.Price, system requirements and release dateDaVinci Resolve 20.0 and DaVinci Resolve Studio 20.0 are available in beta for Windows 10+, Rocky Linux 8.6, and macOS 14.0+.Blackmagic Design hasnt announced a final release date for the updates, which are free to existing users.New perpetual licenses of the base edition are free;

Download Business Insider's app here.This week's dispatch Drew Angerer/Getty Images How to navigate the chaosThe headlines are scary.Stocks are cratering. The trade war is intensifying. Odds of a recession are jumping. Opening your 401(k) is disorienting.But here's the thing: Most market pros say panicking is just about the worst thing you can do right now.Think back to March 2020. The world was shutting down at the onset of the pandemic. Stocks plunged rapidly. Yet, as terrifying as that sell-off was, it proved to be short-lived. Five years later, the S&P 500 is sharply higher than it was back then (even including this year's drop).Vanguard sent a note to customers this week advising them to "resist the urge to deviate from your financial plan" amid rising uncertainty. It noted the market's best- and worst-performing days tend to occur in close succession."Investors who have stayed the course during downturns have been able to take advantage of market recoveries and have typically come out ahead of those who moved to the sidelines," the fund manager said.Still, the impulse to take drastic measures is strong.It's human nature. My BI colleague Max Adams outlines three things investors can consider to weather the worst of the downturn: don't overreact, consider defensive stocks, and don't try to time the market.If last week taught us anything, it's that the market is not a place to park cash you might need soon. Having some investments in cash or cash equivalents, like a money market fund, is important.Things could get worse before they get better. The S&P 500 is squarely in correction territory. The Nasdaq is already in a bear market.Michael Antonelli, a market strategist for Baird Private Wealth Management, offered a viewpoint that stuck with me. He told clients not to let fear take over during these tumultuous times."When uncertainty reigns, your reaction to it determines your success or failure," he wrote to clients. "Hunkering down and waiting for a storm to pass is sometimes the correct course of action."How are you navigating the markets? I'd love to hear from you, drop me a line at today@businessinsider.com.The young entrepreneurs flocking to 'mini private equity' Getty Images; Tyler Le/BI Well, it's not exactly private equity. MBAs and young professionals are setting their sights on search funds which seek to buy and grow small businesses amid white-collar job insecurity.But the model isn't always glamorous, and the memes are rampant.I graduated. Now what? C.J. Burton for BI As DOGE layoffs set in, Gen Z is entering a shaky postgrad landscape. Students who hoped to work in public service or fields relying on federal funding and contracts are starting to reconsider.How about graduate school or even the private sector? Those aren't so easy, either.Also read:Unwrapping a boxer's bold claims Floyd Mayweather Jr. John Nacion/Getty Images Retired boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. has sought to refashion himself as a budding business mogul. In February, he talked a big game about a $400 million purchase of 62 Manhattan apartment buildings.In the month since his announcement, however, there's been no evidence that any of those buildings have changed hands. It's not his only real-estate claim that doesn't appear to match reality.An accused corporate spy comes forward Rebecca Zisser/BI An ex-employee of Rippling, an HR software company, detailed his days of corporate espionage on behalf of rival Deel in an Ireland court filing. Some memorable moments: hiding in a bathroom, getting an offer to move to Dubai, and smashing a phone with an ax.The accused also said Deel's CEO was directly involved.This week's quote:"I've been saying this for two years.
