Innovations like these are driving adoption of Adobe video workflows: recent Premiere Pro CC converts include the four-time Academy Award winning Coen Brothers, who are currently editing their film, Hail, Caesar!; and director Rhys Thomas and producer Lorne Michaels of NBC’s Saturday Night Live, with Staten Island Summer, a Paramount Pictures production, due out in 2015. In addition, MLB Network switched their editing and post-production environment to a complete Creative Cloud workflow.
« From script to screens, Adobe is delivering advanced workflows for every step of the creative journey. The industry is switching to Premiere Pro CC and our tightly integrated set of video tools because of the constant stream of innovation coming from our labs, » said Steve Warner, vice president of digital video and audio at Adobe.
« Our move to Creative Cloud, with deeply connected mobile-to-desktop workflows and services that make your assets available to you as you move from app to app, ensures our customers have the tools and services to create stunning videos, TV shows, films and commercials faster than before. »

Adobe Premiere Pro CC :
Editors have a lot to look forward to in the next release of Premiere Pro CC, starting with the all-new Color workspace and Lumetri Color panel providing powerful, yet easy-to-use, color tools inside Premiere Pro CC. Further extending their creative color workflows, Premiere Pro CC users will be able to apply Looks captured in the real world with Project Candy to add emotional impact and visual appeal to videos.

It will be much easier to deliver polished interview content by smoothing out jump cuts in talking head shots with Morph Cut. Improved integration between Adobe Premiere Clip and Premiere Pro CC will offer a seamless transition from the mobile editing experience to the power of a professional desktop NLE.

The ability to shape light and color is integral to the process of working with moving images, » said Al Mooney, senior product marketing manager. « Color tools should enable play and experimentation. They should be approachable, easy to understand, and easy to include in your post-production workflow. » 

Project Candy :
« Project Candy » is the code name for an amazing new mobile technology, currently under development, that allows users to capture light and color from the things they see around them and save the results as Looks. Looks are like grading presets used to enhance the appearance of video footage, like those you can create in Adobe SpeedGrade CC or now in Premiere Pro CC.
« The brilliant thing about Project Candy, is that you don’t need to know anything about color grading to use it, » said senior product manager Patrick Palmer. « In the past you would need to be an expert colorist to match the Look of a scene in real-life. With Candy, you just need your phone. »
Looks saved in Project Candy are automatically available in Premiere Clip, Premiere Pro CC, and After Effects CC via Creative Cloud Libraries, where they can also be shared with colleagues. 

Adobe After Effects CC :

« The preview enhancements in the coming release provide a more responsive and dynamic environment for motion graphics and visual effects work, » said Todd Kopriva, product manager for After Effects. « This allows artists to focus on the creative process and stay in the creative zone with fewer distractions or interruptions. »
Connected creativity takes a leap forward with Creative Cloud Libraries, putting assets right at the artist’s fingertips, including images, Looks, color swatches and vector graphics from other desktop and mobile apps like Adobe Shape CC.
Face Tracker is a new feature that makes it easy to map facial movements with exceptional accuracy, managing the level of detail you track.

Other enhancements in the new release include a more adaptable user interface and support for using touch controls to navigate between panels within the app. 

Adobe Character Animator (Preview) :
Adobe Character Animator offers a groundbreaking new experience for After Effects users—using the computer’s webcam and microphone along with keyboard and mouse interaction allows users to animate characters created in Adobe Photoshop CC or Adobe Illustrator CC in real time, shaving many hours off the creative process.
« Character Animator makes it incredibly easy to bring life-like behavior figures and insert them into scenes including other actions like wind or snow, » said Kopriva. Users can record multiple takes and then stitch together the best performances for a great result. The best thing about it? It’s so much fun to use! »
