Adobe Premiere Pro addiction, generated and translated with AI

Adobe has released new versions of the video editing Premiere Pro and the animation program after effects. The innovations include an intelligent search function and automatically translated subtitles. The “generative expanding” presented as a beta version in autumn 2024 is now part of the full version. The hardware-hungry after effects gets an update for more fluid performance and extended 3D support.

Intelligent search function for premiere per

Adobe calls his smart search for premiere Pro “Media Intelligence”. It determines the content of video clips. In this way you can search for information such as objects, places and camera settings in a natural language and find suitable clips. An input line for the new search has Premiere Pro in the top right corner.

In addition, this search function can also be filtered according to classic metadata such as the camera used, the focal length used or the recording date.

Firefly tool “expand generative things”

The Premiere Pro Tool “Expand generative” uses the artificial intelligence behind Adobe Firefly to extend video clips. She has been available in a public beta version of Premiere Pro since autumn 2024. Now it is part of the full version. Before that, she only supported 1080p resolution. In the final version, this now works with 4K material. Unlike AI videoogenerers, but only pictures cannot generate noises, Premiere Pro also adds the background tone.

In the timeline, Premiere Pro marks the extended area as AI generated. Betatester had wished for the marker, otherwise the overview will quickly be lost in larger projects, what the original and what is generated. A context menu can generate alternatives or change the area created by the AI back to the original.

Automatically translated subtitles

Premiere creates the audio track per subtitle via artificial intelligence and can now translate them into 27 languages within the video editing. In addition to English, German, Spanish and French, the program also supports Danish, Dutch, Hindi and Japanese.

In the subtitle control panel there is a button that recognizes the starting language at the push of a button and translates into a desired language. This requires an online connection.

Better performance and 3D support for After Effects

For the animation program after effects, Adobe promises faster and longer reproduction even on older devices with a little RAM. According to Adobe, After Effects, After Effects, this achieves a continuous cache.
