For filmmakers, hurry up and wait has always been part of the movie-making process, and nobody knows that better than the filmmakers heading to Park City for the 2025 Sundance Film Festival. Crafting the perfect story takes time. Tedious tasks like holding for sound, chasing the golden hour, or watching a status bar crawl across the screen make it harder to see the big picture and have creative breakthroughs.
We've been working hard to reduce tedium for video professionals, which means you'll spend less time hunting for the perfect clip, transcribing and translating footage, waiting for motion graphics to playback, or troubleshooting color pipelines. Leaving you more time to do the things you love.
Today we're excited to introduce new features in Premiere Pro (beta), After Effects (beta), & Frame.io that will make editors and motion designers faster than ever.
Find footage faster with AI-powered Media Intelligence and the new Search panel in Premiere Pro (beta)

For editors, finding the perfect shot is hard. Every editor has their own delicate, fastidious system for reviewing, logging, and finding their favorite moments as they piece together their timeline. But if you're like me, you've also had this experience: you've finished your edit, handed it off - then found the one magical shot you should have used after everyone starts watching it. It's the worst.
With new Media Intelligence and the Search panel in Premiere Pro (beta), the power of AI helps you find exactly what you need, when you need it. The content of your clips is automatically recognized, including objects, locations, camera angles, and more. With the new Search panel, you can use natural language to find visuals, spoken words, or content with embedded metadata like shoot date or camera type - all at the same time.
That means you can search footage for descriptive terms like person skating with a lens flare or close up of person running at sunset and see relevant moments I can quickly scrub through or load in the Source monitor. Or I can search for California and find related visuals, transcript mentions, and embedded metadata with shoot location all in one place!
Plus, media analysis is super-fast and happens entirely on your own system, so you don't need an internet connection to use it. And as with all our AI-powered tools, your content is never used to train any AI models.
Go global in seconds with Caption Translation in Premiere Pro (beta)
Since we launched our popular Text-Based Editing workflow, we've had fantastic feature requests like bulk removal of pauses and filler word detection. Now that we've added those, we're working on the next most popular request: caption translation!
Captions have become increasingly critical for accessibility and engagement on social media. Now you can more easily expand your global audience with fast, accurate translations in 17 languages. Plus, you can have multiple caption tracks visible at the same time to display various languages, or even assist you through editing in a different language.
Fast, seamless playback in After Effects (beta)
Everyone wants to work faster and save time. After Effects (beta) is rising to meet that demand with new performance improvements that let you preview more of your comp than ever before.
We're introducing a faster, more modern caching system that uses both your computer's RAM and high-performance attached hard disks to preview and playback larger and more complex projects faster than ever before. It makes motion design more interactive, responsive, and fun.
You're no longer limited by the amount of RAM on your computer when you play back your work. That means even older desktops and laptops can now play back entire compositions in After Effects for the first time, without having to pause for caching or rendering. As soon as a comp is cached, press play, and spend more time watching creative work with less time spent waiting.
Go end to end in HDR in After Effects (beta)
Additionally, we're bringing HDR monitoring to After Effects (beta). With support for PQ and HLG video, motion designers can now view their HDR comps accurately with improved video scopes that support HDR. Whether you're working on a laptop or using professional I/O hardware to send an HDR signal to a calibrated reference monitor, it's just as easy to work in HDR as it is to work in SDR with the latest version of After Effects (beta).
Frame.io Camera to Cloud: Now available for select Canon cameras We've partnered with Canon to deliver an exciting new integration between Frame.io Camera to Cloud (C2C) and Canon's C80 and C400 cameras. With a recent firmware update in December, you can now automatically upload proxy files directly from your Canon camera to Frame.io, giving your post-production teams and creative stakeholders access to footage from anywhere within moments of image capture. And since Premiere Pro supports raw camera formats from these cameras, this integration allows teams to get the best of both worlds: speed and quality. Send proxy files to the cloud quickly to start an edit and relink to the camera originals before your final delivery.
This seamless connection between production and post-production enables a whole new way to collaborate in real-time that unlo
