Adobe has introduced groundbreaking generative AI innovations in Adobe Premiere Pro, aimed at revolutionizing video creation and production workflows.
These innovations offer new creative possibilities to professional editors, enabling them to keep pace with the fast-paced world of video production.
New Generative AI Tools
These new tools, set to debut in Premiere Pro this year, will empower users to streamline video editing processes. They will enable tasks such as adding or removing objects from scenes or extending existing clips to be easily accomplished.
These editing workflows will be fueled by a novel video model, expanding Adobe’s Firefly models’ family, which already includes Image, Vector, Design, and Text Effects.
Expansion of Firefly AI Models
Adobe is committed to advancing Firefly AI models across various domains where it holds deep expertise, including imaging, video, audio, and 3D.
These models will seamlessly integrate throughout Creative Cloud and Adobe Express, enhancing user experiences across platforms.
Integration of Third-Party Generative AI Models
The company envisions integrating third-party generative AI models directly into Adobe applications such as Premiere Pro.
This move aims to enhance Premiere Pro’s flexibility and extensibility, catering to diverse professional video workflows. Adobe prioritizes providing customers with choice and limitless possibilities in their creative endeavors.
Future Vision for AI in Premiere Pro
Adobe presented a technology preview of forthcoming generative AI workflows in Premiere Pro, slated for later this year. These workflows, powered by a new video model for Firefly, promise to revolutionize video editing.
Additionally, Adobe showcased potential applications of third-party video generation models from OpenAI and Runway, offering insights into future possibilities.
Features of Generative AI Tools
Key features include:
- Generative Extend: Seamlessly add frames to clips for smoother transitions and precise editing.
- Object Addition & Removal: Easily replace or remove objects within scenes, offering greater flexibility in editing.
- Text to Video: Generate new footage directly within Premiere Pro by inputting text or reference images, facilitating storyboard creation and B-roll generation.
The company views generative AI as a catalyst for creativity, providing inspiration, and serving as a natural extension of users’ daily workflows.
