alt= class=wp-image-11064 data-lazy-src=/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Top-7-Sessions-For-Video-Editors-At-Adobe-MAX-2022-1.jpg/> Get excited-Adobe MAX is back! I am super excited to experience the biggest conference for creatives with my own eyes this year in Los Angeles. Hopefully, my wallet won't cry after I visit the Marketplace on the last day of the conference!
I'm excited to share time and space with my people-fellow creatives, professional video editors, photography buffs, and designers that inspire, motivate, and create amazing art. If you fit that profile, Adobe MAX 2022 is the place to be.
With 150 in-person and 304 virtual sessions this year, the schedule can be a little overwhelming. There are so many great products by Adobe, how is one to choose which sessions to attend?
alt= class=wp-image-11066 data-lazy-src=/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Top-7-Sessions-For-Video-Editors-At-Adobe-MAX-2022-2.jpg/> To get the most out of my Adobe MAX experience, I decided to narrow down what skills I want to work on this year, like video editing, photography, 3D, audio, and graphic design. Since I focused on Photoshop and InDesign at the virtual event last year, this year I'll be spending most of my time focusing on Adobe's video editing software: Premiere Pro and After Effects. (Plus a couple new classes to up my Photoshop game-I can't resist!)
Here are seven Adobe MAX sessions I'll be attending to improve my video editing skills-from 3D motion graphics in After Effects, to audio editing in Premiere Pro, to creating and editing video content for social media, and more. Join me and hundreds of other video editors attending these sessions in-person and online, but don't wait until the last minute to sign up. The in-person courses have limited availability, and they are filling up fast.
