Adobe After Effects
After Effects 5.5 can, for example, smooth camera movement with the “Warp Stabilizer”, and soft-focus shots are improved with Camera Lens Blur. Source Timecode also comes into play effectively when viewing material. The workflow for stereoscopic data and control of Light Intensity Falloff have also been optimised. Technically, Adobe has also improved the Mercury Engine, expanded the selection of available look-up tables in the HD area and added export of XDCAM EX material.
Collaboration between version 5.5 and version 5 is intended to work without problems.
Adobe Premiere Pro
Adobe also improves Premiere Pro. The software receives optimisations to timeline handling, and Adobe Story support is also added. Dual-system sound with linked clips and keyboard-based editing are also possibel. In addition, multiscreen output via Media Encoder, better integration of Adobe Audition and closed captioning have been added. Version 5.5. can now also handle RED camera and Canon XF footage. A further feature is connection to Adobe CS Review, which can be used to compare work in progress and manage approvals.
