An exciting peek at what Adobe has up their sleeve was posted today by Dennis Radeke on the Genesis Project blog:

"Let's start with the big, bold, brash, brazen, big-time, blow-your-mind (are there any other 'big' adjectives I've missed?) statement about the Adobe Mercury Playback Engine: It is a game changer.

Haven't heard about the Mercury Playback engine yet? Good- Read on!"

Trapcode 3D Stroke = Fun in my opinion. Visit The Genesis Project for the article and project files. If you want to play along, but don't have 3D Stroke, you can download a trial version here. If you love it (which I KNOW you will), here's where you can buy it. It's a bargain at $99 and one license will work in several host applications on the same computer. And it's fun. Whee!

Here is his video:

Dennis Radeke reviews Red Giant Magic Bullet Looks at The Genesis Project.

Wow. Without diving into the toolsets and giving you a tutorial, let me say that the final output of the clips, the control that is possible, the speed at which the plugins perform, the performance inside of Adobe applications and the quality of the interface thoroughly impressed me.

Dennis Radeke's Genesis Project blog has a great tip for Premiere Pro users about Using Subclips.

Now, with Premiere Pro starting in version 2.0 and later, we have the ability to create a subclip. This is a virtual instance of the clip that exists within the project folder as opposed to the timeline. The advantage of this is multiple. Not only can you easily reuse the clip by dragging it from the project panel to the timeline, but you can also have the ability to edit it.
