However, there is not a lot flexibility regarding the project properties in a way that doesn’t feel canned and pre-determined by the software. It requires at least 2 GB of RAM for HD editing, but that’s to be expected. Overall, Premiere Elements 8 proved stable, and pretty fast (although it takes a while to install, and load each time). There are also new effects, like motion blur, and a cartoon effect, and a number of new transitions. To help you do that, there’s now a big library of animations, objects, graphics to choose from. You can now add text or graphics on your video, and have them set to move automatically on the screen depending how your main subject moves. SmartTrim automatically cuts out the uninteresting parts of the video (based on some analysis algorithm), and the SmartMix makes sure that your music doesn’t overpower the clip’s main audio.Īnother major feature is motion tracking. SmartFix fixes the shakiness of your footage, lighting, and color. The biggest new features include the “smart” decisions that PE8 takes on your footage automatically. The Organizer now comes with a Fullscreen view, that helps the overall enjoyment of your playback clips, while the auto-analyzer adds “interest points” to your clips based on how much you worked on them, and on their visual quality. This new version has a new sync feature that allows you to view pictures and videos on all your PCs at home, automatically. The package sells for about $100 USD at retailers, and it’s also compatible with Windows 7. Version 8 comes a year after their version 7 release, although in reality only 6 releases exist (the version numbering jumped from v4 to v7 last year).
Adobe announced recently the November release of its Premiere Elements 8 package, their consumer video editor.
