Frame.io has become a part of Adobe’s Creative Cloud package and Adobe After Effects has just gained native support for Apple’s M1/Apple Silicon processors.
Announced on Tuesday, the inclusion of Frame.io brings the video collaboration tool as part of Adobe’s well-known productivity suite. The tool makes it easier for remote editors to collaborate with others, including getting approval from clients for edits, as well as handling tasks like footage uploads and distribution to stakeholders.
Adobe agreed to acquire Frame.io last August to a tune of $1.275 billion.
Frame.io has also been incorporated into updated versions of Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects, allowing users to share work-in-progress with an unlimited number of reviewers, and receive frame-accurate comments and annotations without leaving the editing tools.
Subscribers can use Frame.io to work on five different projects with another remote user, use 100GB of dedicated Frame.io storage, and even work from “Camera to Cloud.”
With the current update, Adobe After Effects has gained native M1 support. Adobe has stated that the app now launches up to seven times faster and can render compositions twice as fast as a 10-core Intel-based iMac Pro.
The new version includes Scene Edit Detection support, complete with Adobe Sensei, which uses AI and machine learning to detect scene changes in an edited clip. Extend Viewer lets users see 2D and 3D layers located outside a frame’s edge, while Binning Indicators for 3D Layers show which layers render together in the same 3D space.
Creative Cloud customers can log into Frame.io from within Premiere Pro and After Effects using their Adobe ID as of Tuesday. Updates to the tools are rolling out globally to all users from Tuesday, and will be available to all by the end of the week. Creative Cloud subscriptions start at $19.99 per month, with a 7-day free trial for new users.
