Adobe Premiere Adds VR, Social Publishing Features

The next release of Adobe Premiere Pro CC includes auto-aware virtual reality (VR) that seamlessly detects and applies the correct setting to stereoscopic and monoscopic media. First introduced at IBC, updates to Premiere Pro, After Effects CC and Prelude CC will also include a Beta of Team Projects that allows teams and enterprise customers to co-edit and collaborate on Creative Cloud projects.

In addition, Adobe announced the public beta of the Social Publishing Panel for Premiere Pro CC, a streamlined social publishing workflow that helps online content creators take advantage of the strengths of several popular social media platforms-without leaving the Creative Cloud workspace. Social Publishing Panel (Beta) in Premiere Pro is powered by Adobe Marketing Cloud technology and enables quick exporting of videos to social channels, as well as data analysis of video content. Features in this new panel include cross-platform social publishing and performance tracking, recommendations for peak performance, keyword presets, and more. More info here.

The Social Publishing Panel joins a lineup of other great features announced at IBC 2016, that are now available on CC video tools, including new virtual reality workflows in Premiere Pro CC and the Team Projects hosted collaboration service.

Adobe Sensei Up the Automation Ante

Adobe also announced Adobe Sensei, a new framework and set of intelligent services for dramatically improving the design and delivery of digital experiences. Adobe Sensei's intelligent services tackle today's complex experience challenges-including image matching across millions of images, understanding the meaning and sentiment of documents and finely targeting important audience segments-leveraging machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning capabilities. Spanning the entire Adobe Cloud Platform, this announcement builds upon the machine learning capabilities unveiled in Adobe Marketing Cloud at Adobe Summit in March.

Adobe Sensei harnesses the company's massive volume of content and data assets-from high-resolution images to customer clicks-providing an unparalleled ability to design, deliver and manage digital experiences. Adobe Sensei includes a unified AI/machine learning framework and a set of intelligent services that power Creative Cloud, Adobe Document Cloud and Adobe Marketing Cloud. Dozens of these intelligent services have been deployed in Adobe products to date. The company is significantly increasing its investment in Adobe Sensei and intends to make it available to its ecosystem of partners, ISVs and developers who will extend Adobe's industry leading cloud products and build custom solutions on top of them.

Adobe Sensei is built into the company's cloud offerings, including Adobe Creative Cloud, Adobe Marketing Cloud and Adobe Document Cloud, to automate mundane tasks, drive predictive and personalization capabilities, and boost productivity. Examples of Adobe Sensei intelligent services across Adobe's cloud offerings include: Content Intelligence, Face Aware Editing, Semantic Segmentation, Intelligent Audience Segmentation, Attribution, and Natural Language Processing.
