Top\u00a0image from Adobe Max<\/a>\u00a0via Annie St. Cyr<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Adobe Max<\/a> is becoming the go-to\u00a0mega-conference<\/strong> for the company’s growing army of digital creatives<\/strong>. Hosting over ten-thousand\u00a0digital designers, photographers, videographers, editors,\u00a0<\/strong>and all manner of\u00a0multi-hat wearing creatives<\/a> in San Diego<\/strong>, Adobe Max quite literally jam-packed a convention center full of all things Adobe<\/strong>. Guest speakers Jordan Peele<\/a> and Quentin Tarantino<\/a> highlighted presentations by Adobe’s program designers<\/strong> that previewed a host of updates and new features for the next version of the Creative Cloud<\/strong>.<\/p>\n For those who haven’t joined the flock, Adobe’s current version<\/strong> of its Creative Cloud (Adobe CC 2017<\/a>) is a monthly-subscription-based “cloud” service<\/strong> that offers\u00a0different design-based programs in its suite. The full Cloud includes everything from mainstays like Photoshop<\/a>, InDesign<\/a>, and Premiere Pro<\/a> to more advanced programs like After Effects<\/a>, Illustrator<\/a>, and Dreamweaver<\/a>. There are also hybrid, crossover, and ancillary programs (Bridge<\/a>, Media Encoder<\/a>, and the new\u00a0Behance<\/a>\u00a0social platform)\u00a0that tie everything together.<\/p>\n For those in the film and video production industry<\/strong>, the Creative Cloud has become the most popular service for across-the-board editing needs<\/strong>. The Cloud has changed how we work by\u00a0crossing between programs like Premiere Pro<\/strong> and After Effects<\/strong> with assets and renders in Photoshop, Illustrator,<\/strong> and Media Encoder<\/strong>. If Adobe Max showed us anything, it’s that the Cloud is expanding<\/strong> to further engulf all of our video editing needs<\/strong>. Here’s everything you may have missed.<\/p>\nTeam Projects<\/h3>\n
