Today, at Adobe MAX - the world's largest creativity conference - Adobe (Nasdaq: ADBE) announced beta availability of Premiere Pro's first set of Firefly-powered video editing workflows powered by the new Firefly Video Model (beta), along with enhancements and upgrades to the app's performance and user experience. New features include Generative Extend (beta) which addresses a common but complex challenge in video editing by making it easy for video professionals to extend clips to cover gaps in footage, smooth out transitions and hold on shots longer for perfectly timed edits. The new upgrades in Premiere Pro unlock more creative time for busy editors, including by tripling export speeds and offering a new context-sensitive properties panel, and are generally available to Premiere Pro customers today. The Firefly Video Model (beta) is the first publicly available video model designed to be commercially safe.
We believe our Firefly Video Model will revolutionize video editing in ways that video professionals are going to love, said Ashley Still, senior vice president, digital media at Adobe. The latest innovations across Premiere Pro, After Effects and Frame.io will empower video professionals to do their best work more quickly, efficiently and beautifully.

First Firefly-Powered Video Workflows - Commercially Safe by Design Adobe has been deeply engaged with professional video editors over the past year to understand how generative AI can solve real problems in their work. A common challenge that surfaced throughout this community engagement was the ability to create new media from an existing clip to help fine-tune edits, hold on a shot for an extra beat or add a few frames to cover a transition. The Firefly-powered Generative Extend tool (beta), now available in Premiere Pro (beta), was designed to make shots a little bit longer by generating entirely new frames at the beginning or end of a clip. It can also be used to extend audio clips to create ambient room tone to smooth out audio edits. Just click and drag for the perfect edit.
To help video professionals quickly communicate their creative intent, create b-roll to fill gaps, or to add new elements to a shot, Adobe also released today the new Generative Video (beta) module powered by Adobe Firefly.
As with all Firefly generative AI models, the Firefly Video Model (beta) - and the features it powers, like Generative Extend (beta) - is designed to be safe for commercial use. Adobe trained its Firefly generative AI models on licensed content, such as Adobe Stock and public domain content. In addition, Adobe's AI features undergo an AI Ethics Impact Assessment to ensure that they meet the company's AI Ethics principles of accountability, responsibility, and transparency. Content Credentials, which act like a nutrition label for digital content to show how it was created and edited, are applied to select Firefly-powered features such as Generative Extend and Firefly Video Model outputs to indicate the use of generative AI.

New Innovations for Pro Video Editors and their Production Teams With the rapid rise of short-form video, editors are working faster than ever before, with tighter budgets and distributed teams. Adobe continues to deliver breakthrough innovations across its video application ecosystem to enable end-to-end editing capabilities and seamless collaboration between editors and their stakeholders. Recent upgrades to Premiere Pro, After Effects and Frame.io include:
Premiere Pro:
Premiere color management (beta), an entirely new color system that enables higher fidelity and more consistent color than ever before, automatically transforming log footage from nearly every camera into HDR and SDR - enabling an editor to get started faster with beautiful footage. Premiere Pro makes it easier than ever to create great videos with perfect skin tones, more vibrant color, and improved dynamic range.
New context-aware properties panels that surface the most needed tools in a single convenient panel, cutting down mouse mileage for experienced pros and reducing the learning curve for new users.
Speedier performance including ProRes exports now up to 3x faster, plus more hardware acceleration for faster playback.
Expanded support for even more Canon, Sony, ARRI, and RED cameras that enable customers to import native files and start editing immediately.
A fresh, new design that's modern and more consistent.
After Effects:
Enhanced 3D workspace with an expanded range of tools that support the ability to work with embedded 3D animations from imported 3D models.
Integration of Substance 3D with After Effects enables designers to create stunning, photorealistic 3D elements that can significantly enhance the quality of 3D motion design and VFX projects. The new Send to After Effects feature in Substance 3D Painter allows artists to transfer fully textured 3D models directly to After Effects with a single click, empowering motion designers with new levels of 3D creative cap
