Feature Request: Automatic Shot Detection by Camera Movement in Premiere Pro

Hi Adobe Team,

 

My name is Carter Baeza, and I’m a licensed realtor and a co-owner of Dockside Realty,  a real estate brand that also specializes in full-service content creation for listings. I film dozens of homes each month using stabilized camera motion — mostly pushes, pulls, pans, and parallax — to create high-end visual walkthroughs for clients and social media.

 

A major part of my workflow involves trimming long batches of footage into usable segments based on camera movement type, and doing that manually across 50–100 clips per shoot is a time-consuming bottleneck.

 

I’d love to request a Premiere Pro feature that automatically detects common camera movements (push, pull, pan, parallax, static, etc.) and cuts or tags clips accordingly. This would allow creators like myself to:

  • Speed up the rough cut/edit prep process
  • Organize footage by visual intent
  • Deliver faster and cleaner edits for real estate, events, social, and branded content

This type of tool could also integrate nicely with AI-driven assistants or work as a plug-in for advanced labeling. Even a movement-based metadata tag would be a huge step.

 

Thanks so much for your time and for constantly evolving the tools we depend on. I’d love to see this idea considered as a time-saving upgrade for creators across industries.

 

All the best,
Carter Baeza
