After Adobe's "Equitable Language" terminology changes, it seems obvious that they are leaving the realm of professional and entering the Tik Tok producer realm. After looking into DaVinci Resolve, maybe you should end your Adobe subscription too? What do you all think?

I have installed version 22.6.2, available from 09/11/2022 in my location. Before that, I had lost a lot of time. We pay a subscription for working software which has PRO (fessional) in its name.If not, let's them change their name to Premiere without PRO.How long do we have to wait for Color Checker Passport? It will probably appear in Premiere when Avid adds it in 10 years.   Mod note: Branched and moved. Title has been changed.

I’ve been linking premire / after effects and using the adobe universe for the first time. In my experience, Adobe has so many unacceptable behaviors, especially if you just downloaded the workspaces. A professional video editing application should not change my colors as soon as I drag it into the workstation. It shouldn't take 9 years to render my files. My exported video shouldn't be glitching out. These are all real problems I've had.  And yes, there's definilty settings I can change and things I can set up to get it work nicely, but I've had so many issues w Adobe, I honestly don't even wanna hear it. This is why I switched to CapCut, it's free, and it doesn't have any of these annoying problems. I'd love for someone to chime in and tell me otherwise. 

Adobe Premier Pro is the worst product ever. And the fact they are not even benchmarking with competitors reveals how the decision makers are. How can you claim to be a pro video platform and you can't even handle an MKV file. Davinci Resolve eats you up without trace. Everything you can do, Davince Resolve does it better and more. Aren't you guys ashamed? Instead of wasting money on you events at least handle all video files since you are all about video. Do the small things first. None sense    Mod note: Edited for content.

Hi there, Im looking for an editor who is really good at using premiere pro to edit our film. It's not an easy Job and its not paid.  We are located in Auckland NewZealand.  The film is about loss of a loved one, that Journey and a reunion in the spiritworld.  This labour of love requires somone who is passionate about the message of the film and  possibly someone who has experienced a loved one passing away.  I know it might be a stretch asking for this but if you dont ask for what you want you will most certainly not get it. I'm believer that the right person is out there somewhere.  If your interested and can help please email me at [removed by moderator] Thanks  

Kennt jemand eine Übersicht aller Adobe Sprachversionen?Ich brauche eine vollständige Liste mit Audioeffekten Englisch-Deutsch.

Firstly, After Effects, Lightroom Classic, and Media Encoder are some of the best software I've used and are some of my favorites. However, a small problem makes me question daily if it's a good idea to continue using these programs. I feel the hype around AI is so inflated that Adobe seems blinded by investor money. Instead of adding practical features useful to us creators, Adobe is busy catering to investors with features like Generative AI, which makes no sense to me as a videographer.     YES, artificial intelligence is the future of video or photo editing. But please remember that it’s currently limited. It isn’t of high enough quality to be used at 100%. Artificial intelligence can be beneficial in video editing, and yes, it represents the future. However, please don’t forget about features that expedite and provide flexibility to the editing process, rather than adding so-called “creative” features of generative content. I produce my own content. I don’t need someone

Hello Adobe world,  This isn't Premiere specific, but it relates to video content creators and would integrate with Premiere. (and I didn't know where else to put it!) I was inspired by the new Firefly beta release and started dreaming of possibilities. Please make an AI-powered screenplay-to-storyboard app.  Based on what FIREFLY can already do, it doesn't seem like much of a stretch to take an entire screenplay and generate storyboards. The AI would notate locations, time of day, characters, shots (WIDE, ECU, etc.) and other framing notes-- heck, based on what Premiere and AE can do, you should even be able to specify the camera you are using, lens choice, aperture, etc. The AI will then create full storyboards or slide presentations based on the text descriptions and technical notations.  You could then import into Premiere and the slides could act as placeholders/scaffolding to be replaced when the full video or artwork is created.  I co

This might be a silly question, but does anyone have ideas or suggestions for elevating a video? I've done music, added transitions, but I'm not sure what else I could do to make it look a little more professional and sophisticated. 

I'm usually someone who walks around with rose colored glasses but this is a huge disappointment for me from Adobe. This is a Paid service/program and how far behind the free competition is nuts. I'm a teacher for a Content Creation apprenticeship and although my field of videography is processed through Premiere Pro - there is zero incentive for me to learn and teach Rush?! Instagrams editor is close to perfection for vertical content, CapCut is ranks supreme if you need more effects but both those editors are FREE. Rush I have had nothing but problems with. Glitching, cuts clips short for no reason, lack of basic features. I'm at a loss. Hoping to get some upvotes on this so that Adobe can see they are entirely missing a whole new generation of content creators and honestly most of my colleagues in my generation are hopping ship to Davinci.  I've loved Adobe honestly about 20 years but I'm beginning to think they may completely loose their stronghold in the next 5+ years if they

Adobe Premiere team, you are incompetent and don't deserve the money you receive. A program that has been around for 20 years still continues to have issues with importing files due to the "Drag and drop" method where file names were mixed up in the cache memory during import, causing problems.   (abusive language removed by moderator)

The issue at hand is as follows:Adobe has a vast number of employees. They find themselves in the predicament of constantly needing to make system modifications. They are under pressure, and therefore, action is necessary. However, their actions don't always lead to improvements; on the contrary, as evidenced in recent years, Adobe's performance has worsened. It has become slower and more complex. Features that used to work flawlessly now perform terribly. The ideal solution would be to refrain from downloading the latest versions. However, the challenge lies in the fact that not updating could result in certain functions ceasing to work.In essence, there is no definitive solution. It's necessary to come to terms with the fact that Adobe will continue to make modifications, even if they lead to deterioration. What concerns me about this situation is whether the same occurs in the design of cars or airplanes, for example. Countless engineers are compelled to make changes, even if these

Just shift to vinci studio already. adobe soes nothing. trying to borrow tools from other adobe paltforms and, throwing us a 2000s old architecture and barely keeping it floating... zero colour space controls.... proffesionals use your software too... not just cone click editors... its infuriating getting stuck with this piece of outdated software due to work restrictions.

Does anyone maybe know a good After Effects alternative? I try to replace every Adobe program so i can cancel my subscription, and the only App i need to find a replacement for is AE. Danvinci Resolve apparently has something similar to AE, but i need an App where i can do character animation well. For example, are there other good Apps that have something similar or exactly something like the puppet pin tool? 

Currently using Adobe CC  v 5.11.0.522.1, with PS, LrC, Illustrator, & InDesignon 27" iMac; 16GB; 2.12 TB Fusion (50% plus capacity vacant - no issues)  Mostly photography.macOS Catalina v 10.15.7.I must update the OS in order to update all (or any) of the Adobe applications I use typically. However, today Apple offers macOS Ventura 13.4.1 and the reviews are poor for most Adobe software applications, with this Ventura update.  This makes me extremely reluctant to take on many days of disappointment and hours trying to resolve issues between the Apple OS and all of my much-loved Adobe applications.  I have a lot "on my plate" so-to-speak, these days (like a lot of us) so am not sure I am better off, for the sake of all the Adobe applications, in holding off with Ventura, for awhile.  Less stress? Many reviewers, that I would trust, recommend upgrading to the previous OS Monterey 12.6.3, instead. What do you recommend? Which is the best Adobe

It would be nice to have an option to get Premire Pro, After Effects, and photoshop as a bundle. Or even a build your own bundle. I don't need a lot of the other apps, but I have to have premire and after effects. It feels stupid to pay for everything when you know you will only use three to four of the apps.

I contacted support via the live chat because a small stock video was taking a day to download and they scheduled a call with the technical support team. I get a call from "Adobe" and they ask me to go to share.screen.adobe.com which downloads a zip file to your computer. I promptly told her I wasn't comfortable with this and she told me she understands and we ended the call. Was this a legitimate customer service call? And if so, Adobe come up with a better method than having your users download a zip file to give your agents access to their computers. Have us download a screen share app in through the Creative Cloud launcher. This way is sketchy af.

For my new documentary I need some background sounds like a quiet natural (wood) environment with only some birds in the neighboorhood, a heavy war-scene, a tropical night with the sound of crockets, etc.Is there a database which you can recommend?The sounds are meant to enliven a large amout of photo's.(As far as I now, Adobe Premiere Pro doesn't have such a database itself.)

I mad a simple animation that just drops the scale from 100 - 0 with some adjustments to the keyframe graph. I made the transform effect with the motion keyframes into a preset with it set to anchor to the out point so it will always be at the end off the clip. The problem is when I apply the prest the key frames just kinda go wherever in the middle insted of anchoring to the out point. Extreamly frustration when trying to add this on to hundred of graphics for those mind numbing alex hormozi style social media videos. I appreciate any help!

It's been four months and this still sucks. But this is also classic Adobe. Fix what's not broken, and don't fix what is broken. I see a lot of placation and empty promises from Adobe staff who are entirely missing the point. Yes, the new export window sucks and they "missed the mark on this one" but what pisses me and a lot of other users off is that this isn't the first time. This has been going on for at least a decade of implementing new features many users didn't ask for in a half-assed manner, only to back track and tell the community that they're working on it and "taking our feedback seriously." Others in this thread have brought it up too; it's not that we don't like change, it's that we're working professionals, many of us with a decade or more of muscle memory and efficiences in our workflow that we've developed to keep pace with an ever increasing demand for short turn arounds, only for Adobe to change it for seemingly no reason. We don't have the luxury of taking the time

Hi, I am PandaI am a video editor who makes all sorts of videos such as advertisements, trailers, documentaries, reels, shorts, and TikTok. I was using adobe premiere pro 1 year ago using my friend's license who had given it to me. Now I had to switch to DaVinci Resolve because I cannot afford the hefty amount Adobe charges. I really love Adobe software and want to try out 3d and motion effects in after effects. Is there any way that I can use the apps for a couple of months for free and promise to pay later on when I get stable? I am very eager to come back to the place where I belong. Adobe feels like home and I want to come back to it.Thank You-Panda

I've had NOTHING but trouble with Adobe Premiere Pro this entire last month and I'm writing here to say "I've had enough". WASTING entire days online trying to find workarounds and fixes for an application that charges an annoying PREMIUM for a monthly fee -I'm fed up with this garbage and I can't wait to be disappointed by Davinci next.  Do better.  Please.  

I hear talk about Rush being developed as a way to eventually have it become Premiere Pro. Is this also true about Lightroom and Light Room Classic? I agree with the change, I'd just like to know if this is true and how far along are we at the time of this post to make the code used to build "Rush" be the code to used rebuild Premiere Pro...... if anyone knows. I'll understand if I don't get an answer. It's a pretty deep question.

Even though the name Rush resembles something quick, the modern life demands a more complete app; with features like chroma key substitution or other resources. To post to social media we have to always go to other apps whilst Premiere Rush could be way better than CapCut, for example, but simply isn't because it's too short of features.

Talking about HDR, technobloggers claim that HDR is a revolutionary technology that dramatically increases the amount of colour available. The number of colours allegedly looks something like this: If you import an RGB24 screenshot into Adobe Premiere Pro, it will look correct. If you render it in SDR colour space (Rec. 709), it will still look correct. However, if you change the colour space to HDR (Rec. 2100 HLG), the colours will degrade and the image will not look like the original. So HDR technology is a scam that should not be applied in the workplace. You don't in HDR video insert videos containing SDR content, as their colour will look hideous. Why is this the case when a set of HDR colours contains a set of SDR colours?
