What's new in Premiere Elements 11?
Adobe has given the entire Elements suite a major overhaul in version 11. Premiere Elements, Photoshop Elements and the Elements Organizer all have completely redesigned interfaces – bright, uncluttered workspaces with easy-to-read text and tools tucked away until you need them.
But, in addition, Adobe has added some very nice new features:
In Premiere Elements:
- 64-bit support for Windows 7 and 8 as well as for Mac OSX.
- Automatic project set-up, based on the first clip you add to your timeline.
- Expanded support for video from portable devices, like iPads and smartphones, as well as new support for AVCHD 1080p.
- The old Sceneline has been replaced by Quick view, a full-featured timeline for quickly pulling together video projects.
- The Time Remapping effect, which allows you to suddenly shift your video into fast or slow-motion and then back again!
- A new Adjustments panel offers access to a number of tools for improving your video’s color and sweetening your audio.
- The old Properties panel has been replaced by a new, easier to use, easier to access Applied Effects panel.
- A library of FilmLooks that instantly make your videos look like a haunting horror film, a stylish film noir or a sunbleached summer memory.
- There’s no longer the need for a second installation to add additional content. The program now downloads additional content, including Movie Menu and InstantMovie templates, automatically as needed.
The Organizer
- A redesigned interface that helps you sort your media files by date, place, event and even the people in them.
- A more powerful interface for locating your files and filtering your searches.
- An improved Media Analyzer that gathers more information more efficiently, and less intrusively, than ever.
- Tools for uploading your photos and videos directly to YouTube, Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo, Flickr, Photoshop Showcase and Adobe Revel.
