With Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 software, you can craft stories more efficiently, save time by integrating with Adobe After Effects® and Adobe Photoshop,® edit virtually anything thanks to broad native tapeless and DSLR camera support, and enjoy industry-leading 64-bit performance. Stepping up to the enhanced videoediting power of Adobe CS5 is now easier than ever.
1. Boost efficiency with unparalleled Adobe integration
Smoother project workflows with After Effects
Easily hop between your edited sequence and After Effects as you design motion graphics and fine-tune visual effects. Import Final Cut Pro or Avid projects into Adobe Premiere Pro, and send elements of your project, or the entire sequence to After Effects where you can create opening titles, animated graphics, and world-class special effects. Better yet, when Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects are used as part of Adobe Creative Suite® 5 Production Premium or Adobe Creative Suite 5 Master Collection software, use Adobe Dynamic Link to see After Effects compositions directly in the Adobe Premiere Pro timeline-in context with the rest of your edits-without rendering.
Intelligent native support for Photoshop files
Maximize efficiency when incorporating still images into video production. Import and animate Adobe Photoshop layers in Adobe Premiere Pro. Instantly edit Adobe Premiere Pro stills in Photoshop, and then automatically match the frame size and aspect ratio of an Adobe Premiere Pro project (even in HD) when creating new files. Get better image fidelity thanks to support for Adobe Photoshop blend modes, and take full advantage of support for Photoshop video files.
Continuous rasterization with Adobe Illustrator® graphics
Open native Adobe Illustrator files in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5. When you scale an image in Adobe Premiere Pro, the image is continuously rasterized, maintaining pristine image quality.http://www.webvideoguys.com/images/encore_screen.jpg
Convenient disc and web video creation with Adobe Encore®
Create interactive Blu-ray Discs, DVDs, and SWF files from Adobe Encore software from a single project file. Avoid intermediate rendering by dynamically linking sequences to Encore-a process that’s three times faster than in previous versions.
Script-to-screen workflows with Adobe Story
Leverage integration with Adobe Story (a collaborative script development tool that is part of the new Adobe CS Live online services*) to speed production and post-production with automatically created shooting scripts, easy alignment of footage to scripts, and faster production of rough cuts.
Unmatched workflow and performance with Dynamic Link
Get tighter-than-ever integration when moving assets among Adobe After Effects CS5, Adobe Premiere Pro CS5, and Adobe Encore CS5, saving valuable time that would otherwise be spent intermediate rendering between applications.
2. Work more efficiently with tapeless and DSLR footage
Skip time-consuming transcoding and rewrapping processes when working with tapeless and DSLR footage. Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 leads the industry with native support for virtually any video, image, or audio format, including DV, HDV, RED, DPX, P2, DVCPRO HD, AVCHD, AVC-Intra, and XDCAM. Edit native DSLR footage from the Canon 5D Mark II, 1D and 7D cameras, Nikon D90, D300s and D3000 cameras, and more.
When you work with tapeless media in Adobe Premiere Pro, you gain three key advantages. First, you save time because you’re able to start working with footage immediately-sometimes directly from the camera-thus eliminating the time-consuming transcoding and rewrapping process required when you use the same media in Final Cut Pro. Second, you maintain the pristine image quality of your source footage throughout the production process. Finally, because Adobe Premiere Pro does not convert the file to a proprietary format, metadata acquired from the camera is retained throughout the production process.http://www.webvideoguys.com/images/inline.jpg
Mixed formats and frame rates on the timeline
Mix and match media in a sequence, whatever the format, frame rate, aspect ratio, or resolution.
Uncompressed SD and HD acquisition
Add hardware cards from third-party vendors such as AJA Video, Blackmagic Design, and Matrox, for uncompressed SD and HD acquisition and professional quality output for broadcast monitoring or tape laybacks.
Native QuickTime editing
Import and edit all popular QuickTime formats natively (including Apple ProRes and MOV files captured by Canon 5D and 7D cameras), with full access to clip metadata. No transcoding, rewrapping, or logging and transferring are required. Final Cut Pro requires a plug-in to edit DSLR footage with metadata from Canon cameras.
Media Browser panel for efficient tapeless workflows
See the contents of all mounted volumes on your system. Easily find content on tapeless cameras by using the Media Browser, which shows you the clips (with no extraneous files) along with a customizable view of all the metadata associated with the content. (Final Cut Pro discards metadata acquired from the camera, eliminating useful information and making it harder to locate and manage your assets.) You can open clips and image files in the Source Monitor
directly from the Media Browser panel.
Onset logging with tapeless cameras in Adobe OnLocation CS5
Get all the benefits of real-time, onset logging-even when working with tapeless cameras. Adobe OnLocation CS5 lets you add comments and metadata to placeholder clips while they are being recorded on a tapeless camera. Then, using a unique system that tracks which clips were recorded while log notes were entered, Adobe OnLocation merges the logging information with video and audio at import time to create a tapelessly recorded, fully logged piece of media.
3. Get industry-leading performance and stability from the new Adobe Mercury Playback Engine
Completely redesigned for blazingly fast performance, the Mercury Playback Engine in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 is native 64-bit, optimized for multicore, and GPU-accelerated to provide an amazingly fluid, real-time editing experience. Be creative without worrying about the ramifications of additional effects and high-resolution content.
Multilayer performance
Combine P2, XDCAM, RED, DSLR, DV, and other footage on the timeline; play with the look and flow at full-frame rate; and view in real time on an external HD monitor. With configurations capable of supporting more than nine simultaneous layers and dozens of effects, the Adobe Mercury Playback Engine makes every production more creative and efficient.
Real-time effects
Enjoy unprecedented performance as you try various effects in your project. Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 requires a 64-bit operating system and works hand in hand with NVIDIA CUDA technology. The Adobe Mercury Playback Engine, offers phenomenal performance in software-only mode, but can also use NVIDIA GPU cards for a GPU-accelerated, 32-bit color pipeline. Most popular effects have been optimized to run on this accelerated pipeline-for example, effects like color correction, the new Adobe Ultra® keyer, and motion control all run in real time.
Real-time color correction and color grading
Experiment with multiple color corrections and effects, and see results in real time-even on complex timelines.
Accelerated rendering
The Adobe Mercury Playback Engine doesn’t just deliver blazing performance and a fluid editing experience. By more optimally using your entire system, it also accelerates rendering and encoding, reducing the time required to deliver content to your clients.
