These features are currently in the experimental stage and don’t have release dates
Adobe continues to push the boundaries of creative technology, unveiling some exciting experimental features in its latest “Sneaks” preview. Following the recent announcement of their Firefly Video Model—a generative AI tool for video editing—and Generative Extend, a new addition to Premiere Pro, Adobe is now teasing a range of innovative tools for Photoshop and Premiere Pro users. These cutting-edge features, still in the testing phase, highlight the future of AI-driven creativity. While release dates are yet to be confirmed, the sneak peeks offer a glimpse of what could transform the way creators work with media.
With a total of nine new features previewed, Adobe is showing its dedication to refining everything from photo enhancement to sound design and 3D modeling. Let’s dive into the highlights.
1. Project Perfect Blend: Elevating Realism in Photoshop
Kicking things off is Project Perfect Blend, a Photoshop tool designed to enhance the natural blending of elements in an image. This feature also improves shadow casting, making images feel more lifelike and cohesive. Whether you’re blending objects into new environments or adjusting lighting, Perfect Blend ensures seamless integration.
2. Project Clean Machine: Clean Up Visual Noise
Next up is Project Clean Machine, an intelligent tool for removing unwanted visual elements such as camera flashes, fireworks, or objects obstructing the view. If you’ve ever struggled with a photo ruined by a distraction, this feature is the fix, allowing users to clean up images with minimal effort.
3. Project In Motion: Animation, Simplified
One of the most exciting tools previewed is Project In Motion. This feature allows users to transform static custom shapes into dynamic video animations—simply by entering a prompt. Imagine turning a simple shape into a fluid animation without needing extensive video editing skills. This is ideal for users wanting to breathe life into their designs without the complexity of traditional animation techniques.
4. Project Know How: The Content Authenticator
In a world where verifying the authenticity of media is increasingly important, Project Know How comes to the rescue. This tool is a content authenticator that can search for the source of a video file online, helping users verify the origins of the media they’re working with. This could prove vital in areas such as journalism, content creation, and intellectual property management.
5. Project Turntable: Rotate 2D Art in 3D
Another standout tool is Project Turntable, which lets users rotate 2D vector art into a 3D space. The generative AI behind the feature fills in the gaps, allowing you to change the perspective of 2D art and create realistic 3D renders. This could revolutionize the way vector artists work, adding depth and dimension to otherwise flat illustrations.
6. Project Super Sonic: AI-Generated Sound Effects
For video editors, Project Super Sonic might be the game-changer you didn’t know you needed. This tool generates sound effects using either text prompts or by clicking directly on objects within a video. Whether you want to simulate the sound of wind blowing through trees or create custom sound effects for a scene, Project Super Sonic gives you creative control without needing to leave the editing software.
7. Project Scenic: 3D Scene Layouts with Copilot Integration
One of the more collaborative tools Adobe is exploring is Project Scenic, which integrates with Microsoft Copilot to create 3D scene layouts. Using natural language prompts, you can create and modify objects, lighting, and camera positions within a 3D environment. This feature opens up new possibilities for set design, game development, and any project where spatial composition matters.
8. Project Remix A Lot: Generative Image Remixing
If you’ve ever wished to remix or reshape an image into a completely new form, Project Remix A Lot has you covered. This tool uses generative AI to modify images into various shapes, sizes, and orientations—all while keeping them fully editable. It’s a fun and flexible way to play with your creations and push artistic boundaries.
9. Project Hi-Fi: From Concept to Creation
Lastly, Project Hi-Fi is a tool designed to turn your rough sketches or low-resolution concepts into high-quality images. Whether you’re a designer working through early drafts or a content creator sketching out ideas, Hi-Fi helps you transform your concepts into polished assets. Plus, the ability to drag these high-fidelity images directly into Photoshop for further refinement makes this tool a convenient addition to any workflow.
What’s Next?
Adobe continues to lead the charge in integrating AI into creative processes, making it easier for creators of all skill levels to bring their visions to life. These “sneaks” offer a thrilling glimpse into a future where tools like Project Super Sonic and Project In Motion could redefine how we approach video and sound design, while features like Project Perfect Blend and Turntable push the boundaries of photo and vector art manipulation.
