Description: 

Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium is a suite of applications for creating video, audio, and interactive productions in a variety of formats.

The suite contains the following applications.

  • After Effects CS4 is a postproduction tool for creating and editing motion graphics and visual effects in film and video.
  • Premiere Pro CS4 is a timeline-based video editing program with editing support for multiple video formats, such as DV, HDV, RED, Sony XDCAM, XDCAM EX, Panasonic P2, and AVCHD.
  • Photoshop CS4 Extended is a graphics editing program for 2D, 3D, motion graphics, and more. In addition to its array of features for graphic designers, Photoshop CS4 Extended offers new measurement and analysis tools built with scientists and engineers in mind.
  • Flash CS4 Professional is an advanced authoring environment for creating rich multimedia content on digital, web, and mobile platforms, with or without interactivity. Web presentation requires a Flash Player–enabled browser; PDA or cell phone presentation requires a Flash Lite–enabled device.
  • Illustrator CS4 is a vector-based drawing tool built for professional artists and designers.
  • Soundbooth CS4 is an audio editing tool for creating and polishing audio, customizing music, adding sound effects, and more.
  • OnLocation CS4 is a direct-to-disk video recording and monitoring tool. It allows users to bypass tape during shooting by recording directly to a hard disk and to review footage immediately after recording.
  • Encore CS4 is a tool for DVD and Blu-ray Disc authoring. An interactive web version of any disc project can be saved in Flash-compatible SWF format.
  • Adobe Bridge CS4 provides centralized access to project files, media, and settings for all Creative Suite products. Adobe Bridge's tagging and search functions, as well as its visual interface, are designed for convenient organization and retrieval of project data.
  • Device Central CS4 allows users to preview and test video, websites, Flash Lite projects, graphics, and other content as it will appear on a broad range of mobile phones and other electronic devices.
  • Dynamic Link eliminates intermediate rendering when transferring files between After Effects CS4, Premiere Pro CS4, Soundbooth CS4, and Encore CS4.

Note: Creative Suite 4 Production Premium must be used on one computer. The individual components cannot be installed on separate computers.

Features: 
  • New Speech Search technology in Premiere Pro CS4 and Soundbooth CS4 speeds up the editing process by turning spoken dialogue into keywords, making videos searchable.
  • New motion design enhancements in Photoshop Extended CS4 allow users to sync visual effects created in Photoshop with specific points in an audio track and turn any 3D object into a video display zone by applying video layers as textures.
  • Object-based animation in Flash CS4 Professional streamlines animations by applying tweens to objects instead of to keyframes. The new motion editor gives detailed control over keyframe parameters, including rotation, size, scale, position, and filters.
  • Users can perform a wide range of postproduction tasks — from keying and motion tracking to color correction, rotoscoping, and more — with After Effects CS4's flexible visual effects tools.
  • The new multiple layout feature in Illustrator CS4 allows users to create hand-drawn storyboards and scale them to accommodate a variety of display modes — projected onscreen, viewed at low resolutions over the web, or scaled to mobile device–friendly screen sizes.
