If you are like me, you can spend hours getting lost playing around inside of Premiere and After Effects. However, a small part of that time can get chewed up with a little big of a sluggish performance. Well.. worry about that no more! I got a message from the tech master himself Terry White – that talked about updates to both Premiere and After Effects that are going to be great. In addition to the speed bump that you should see on the Premiere side, they’re talking about things like AVCHD presets, exports to youtube, reading VOB files from DVD’s. Great stuff.
