Instantly connect production with post-production
Included with Frame.io for Creative Cloud, the new Camera to Cloud workflow lets you send camera files directly to Premiere Pro so that editing work can begin while production is happening.
Camera to Cloud works with the professional cameras, audio recorders, and production gear you already use. Images are sent from your RED, ARRI, Panavision, or Sony cameras to a Teradek CUBE, while sound recorders upload directly to Frame.io. Camera to Cloud supercharges the on-set media workflow and can also connect with software such as Pomfort Livegrade and ShotHub, ZoeLog, Magic ViewFinder, and Colorfront.
For more information, check out the Camera to Cloud Training Series.
The redesigned Import experience opens the door to editing in Premiere Pro with a rich, visual, and intuitive way of starting video projects and collecting media. Instead of project settings, you are presented with your media. As you select files and folders, these are added to the tray, providing the first glimpse of your storyline. Click Create and Premiere Pro brings your media onto the timeline as a new sequence, ready for editing.
Collect media from multiple locations and favorite regularly used sources for faster access. Create Bins for your imports and copy media in the background while you begin editing. The new workflow is great for reviewing and copying camera media and for workflows such as assembling dailies stringouts. When needed, simply create an empty project and use existing import workflows, such as File >Import or via the Project panel.
For more information, see Import media.
Output video optimized for every destination
The new Export experience gives you all the power of Premiere Pro in a more organized and streamlined design.
Orchestrate all of your exports with an efficient one-to-many layout, and deliver them to their destinations in one process.
Toggle on each destination, including exporting to a local drive, social media platforms, and FTP sites, and Premiere Pro presents recommended settings for each.
Click Export, and Premiere Pro renders all of your output files, with the option to post them automatically.
The whole export workflow is customizable. You can choose other presets from the Preset dropdown menu – and open the Preset Manager for more options and save custom presets.
Use smart rendering for faster exports. Customize the sequence preview file format to use the format you wish to export, ProRes, for example. Then render as you work, and when it’s time to export, choose Sequence Preview Settings to get lightning-fast exports – no need to rerender.
For more information, see Export video.
Making editing more approachable
The new header bar makes navigating in Premiere Pro faster and easier. With a logical, left-to-right flow, the main stages of the process are accessible via the Import, Edit, and an Export tab so it’s easy to find the things you need and move within the application.
The project name and save status is shown in the center of the header bar. Access Workspaces via the new dropdown menu, where you can also customize your workspaces and how they are displayed in the header bar.
Quick Export now includes the new Preset Manager, so you can export in any available format without leaving the current editing workspace.
For more information, see Header bar to navigate within Premiere Pro.
Use the new Preset Manager to access your preferred export settings from Quick Export or in the new Export mode.
This means you can now easily customize output settings for Quick Export, for example to output ProRes or any other export format. When you open the Preset Manager you are presented with a list of existing Premiere Pro export settings. Click the star to favorite any of these or modify any of the parameters to customize and save your own presets.
You can also use the Preset Manager to import presets from other machines or colleagues. Export presets to share with others.
For more information, see Export Preset Manager.
Move the slider to see the color difference after applying Auto Color.
Color correction is now faster and easier in Premiere Pro. Auto Color uses Adobe Sensei ML technology to apply intelligent adjustments and accelerate your color correction workflow. Position the playhead somewhere in the clip your want to color correct. Auto Color uses frame sampling to optimize color across the whole clip. Adjustments are reflected in Basic Correction sliders at the top of the Lumetri panel. Adjust the overall impact using the new Intensity slider or use individual sliders to fine-tune the color and light values.
Auto Color works on source footage, including LOG footage and footage with LUTs applied.
Use Auto Color as a jumping-off point to fast track your color correction before moving on to secondary color tasks, like skin tones or sky adjustments.

Speech to Text for Cantonese
Speech to Text now includes language support for Cantonese. Speech to Text language packs are now available for 14 languages. English is included with your Premiere Pro installation and additional language packs can be installed as required. Running Speech to Text in your local system is up to 3x faster than the original cloud-based transcription.
For more information, see Speech to Text.
Premiere Pro does not remove any markers. It only hides the unchecked markers. You can always display hidden marker colors by additionally selecting the desired color, or unchecking all boxes.
For more information, see Show and hide markers according to color.
Trim mode playback looping option
You can now start looping playback at the playhead rather than the closest edit point. This option is much more intuitive and immediate since the nearest edit point may be unrelated to what you are currently looking at.
For more information, see Trim mode playback looping.
When you apply Remix to an audio clip, a new indicator shows Remix analysis progress. This provides visual confirmation that Remix is at work.
For more information on Remix, see Remix in Premiere Pro.
You can now increase or decrease the size of the text in the Text panel in Premiere Pro according to your reading comfort level.
While exporting an Edit Decision List (EDL) file, you can now choose whether to show the source clip name (as shown in the Project panel) or the timeline clip name by clicking on the wrench menu and toggling Show Source Clip Name and Label.
This allows you to modify a clip name in an EDL export without changing the source file names.
For more information, see Exporting a project as an EDL file.
