Top reasons to upgrade I
Searchable timelines and projects and easier nested comp navigation - Locate any element in a comp or project with the new QuickSearch. Quickly navigate between nested comps with the new Mini-Flowchart.
Live Adobe Photoshop® 3D layers import - Import 3D layers into After Effects, move them, animate cameras around them, adjust lighting, and composite them with other elements.
Cartoon effect - Instantly give live footage the look of cell animation. Stylize video by reducing the colour palette of a clip and by emphasizing edges.
Keyframe x, y, z values independently, plus 3D compositing improvements - Composite in 3D space more easily: Keyframe x, y, and z position values separately, and use the new unified camera, which makes the After Effects camera tool work more like those in 3D modeling applications. |
Top reasons to upgrade II
Export compositions as a layered project for Adobe Flash® Professional - Export compositions as layered, XFL format projects that can be opened and edited in Adobe Flash CS4 Professional software. Many After Effects assets such as text and Adobe Illustrator® artwork are preserved as vectors.
Mocha for Adobe After Effects from Imagineer Systems - Use this powerful 2.5D planar tracking application from Imagineer Systems to track the motion of elements - even in challenging shots where elements move offscreen or where there is motion blur or excessive grain.
Integrated workflow for mobile device authoring - Select devices in Adobe Device Central and automatically set up an After Effects project that targets those devices, with settings that match the targeted devices and the Render Queue setup to output to the proper codecs and resolutions. |
Top reasons to upgrade III
XMP metadata for asset intelligence - Now retain asset metadata while you work in After Effects. Add new project-, comp-, and layer-level metadata to streamline project tracking, and automate asset auditing and many other tasks.
Dynamic Link between Adobe Premiere® Pro, After Effects, and Soundbooth® - Using Adobe Creative Suite® 4 Production Premium software, now link Adobe Premiere Pro sequences to an After Effects composition and After Effects comps to Soundbooth with Adobe Dynamic Link.
Numerous interface and workflow tweaks - Work more efficiently with dozens of user-requested changes, including the new Auto Resolution setting that only renders visible pixels when zooming in and out of a comp view, streamlined memory and multicore processing preferences, and more. |
