Advanced & User-Friendly Graph Editor for Premiere Pro (Speed + Value)

Advanced & User-Friendly Graph Editor for Premiere Pro (Speed + Value)

The Idea

Introduce an enhanced Graph Editor UI within the Effects Control Panel in Adobe Premiere Pro — offering a dedicated, intuitive, and scalable graph interface similar to After Effects, tailored specifically for video editors.

Key Features

1. Dual Graph Modes

   • Speed Graph: Adjust temporal interpolation smoothly, with speed-only control for precise motion timing.

   • Value Graph: Modify spatial or numerical values (e.g. scale, position, opacity) using value-specific curves.

2. Larger UI & Responsive Graph Area

   • Big, draggable Bezier handles

   • Resizable editor panel (even full-screen toggle)

   • Zoom + pan control for precise fine-tuning

3. Snappy & Intuitive UX

   • One-click switch between Speed & Value Graphs

   • Smooth UI performance with clear keyframe indicators

   • Modifier keys (Shift/Alt) for snapping, linear hold, or easing options

4. Graph Presets & Custom Curves

   • Save & reuse favorite curves

   • Access to community curve packs (optional marketplace integration)

   • Drag & drop preset system with live preview

5. Contextual Tooltips + AI Suggestions (optional)

   • Smart suggestions for easing types

   • Instant smoothing based on adjacent keyframes

The current keyframe graphs in Premier Pro are way confusing & complex + bad ui/ux.

It's a bit hard to edit the graphs since they are too small.

Why This Matters

• Not a new request — a long-standing user pain point
  Thousands of editors, from freelancers to studio-level professionals, have requested better graph tools in forums and feedback hubs for years.

• Massive time-saver
  The current graph editor is too small, hard to interact with, and unintuitive — especially for editors coming from After Effects or DaVinci Resolve.

• Brings motion precision to Premiere
  Editors who do complex transitions, speed ramps, text animations, or motion templates will finally have a native, pro-grade solution inside Premiere, without switching to After Effects.

• Huge for motion-driven workflows
  YouTubers, content creators, agency editors — everyone needs more control over animations and motion without relying entirely on AE.

Vision
Let Premiere Pro not just catch up — but set the new standard for timeline-based motion editing.

Make it fast. Make it fluid. Make it powerful — without ever needing to leave the timeline.
