Adobe has added an AI-enhanced masking feature to Premiere, as well as new typography, materials and 3D features to After Effects that expand motion design and visual storytelling.
The company’s AI-powered ideation surface Firefly Boards enables video teams to brainstorm and explore concepts collaboratively using AI models from Adobe, Google, OpenAI, Runway and others.
Adobe has also included a new Frame.io V4 panel that keeps users in the edit while bringing in comments, media, and versioning.
New innovations in Adobe Premiere and After Effects allow video professionals to accomplish tasks that were previously time-prohibitive. For example, rotoscoping can now be accomplished in seconds with new masking features, such as object selection and mask, shape masks, Firefly Boards integration and Adobe Stock integration.
The new After Effects release opens up new creative possibilities for motion designers and visual storytellers with native 3D parametric meshes, more than 1,300 free substance 3D materials, variable font animation and enhanced vector workflows, said the company.
After Effects’ new native 3D parametric meshes enable the design and customisation of 3D shapes using parametric meshes and combinable shapes with new spot and parallel shadows to enhance assets like stylised graphics and photorealistic set pieces.
