In this article by Jourdan Aldredge for NoFilmSchool, the author explores how Adobe’s new AI-powered Firefly video model is poised to revolutionize video editing across its suite of applications, including Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Frame.io. As Adobe unveiled these updates during the 2024 Adobe MAX conference in Miami, the Firefly model promises significant advancements in features like Generative Extend, offering solutions to some of the most persistent challenges faced by video editors.
One of the standout features introduced is the beta version of Generative Extend, which allows editors to create new frames and extend the duration of clips seamlessly. This function is designed to fill gaps, smooth out transitions, and hold on shots for more precise edits, effectively simplifying a task that would typically require more effort and manual adjustment. With the power of AI, Firefly also enables extended audio edits by generating ambient “room tone” to bridge transitions.
The article highlights additional improvements across Adobe’s video editing tools. Premiere Pro now features an advanced color management system that supports high fidelity HDR and SDR transformations, enhanced speed with faster ProRes exports, and a streamlined interface. In After Effects, integration with Substance 3D empowers designers to import and work with 3D models more easily, enhancing the creative scope for motion graphics and visual effects. Meanwhile, Frame.io introduces more collaborative tools, including enhanced workflows and tighter review loops, making it easier for teams to manage complex projects.
