Hi, community!
April was a huge month for After Effects and the post-production world. Earlier in the month, we released After Effects 22.3 which is natively supported on Apple Silicon, and then there was the NAB Show. I couldn't attend this year but look forward to attending next year.
Community Highlight
With around 53K registered attendees this year, exhibitors, attendees, and partners from all corners of the world turned out in force in Las Vegas. The After Effects product team was there along with other Adobe teams, showing all the latest After Effects features. Let's look at some of the highlights from the show.
Our community rockstar, @Kyle Hamrick, featured in one of the sessions at the Adobe booth.
On Monday, May 9, 25 of the most popular sessions will be posted on their website.
These awards honor breakthrough products from the 2022 NAB Show.
