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
