Introduction
Premiere Pro is a rewritten version of Adobe Premiere, and was launched in 2003. Although Premiere was available for the Macintosh, Premiere Pro 1.x and 2.0 do not support Mac OS due to the engineering costs of cross-platform development, and multiple competing products on Mac OS.[1] However, Premiere Pro CS3 (3.0), released on July 1 2007, is available for both the Windows and Macintosh operating systems (only Intel-based Macs are supported).
Since its rewrite, Premiere Pro is growing in acceptance by the film and video industry,[citation needed] and has been used in such movies as Dust to Glory by Dana Brown, and Superman Returns[2] (for the video capture process), and other venues such as Madonna's Confessions Tour.[3]
Version 1.5, released in 2004, improved support for high-definition video content, and added new project management tools and new filters. It also included support for 24p footage (such as footage from Panasonic's DVX-100). Version 1.5.1 added support for HDV. Version 2.0 further refines 24p and HDV editing, and it is the first major NLE to natively support the Canon 24F[4] format on cameras such as the Canon XL H1, with an additional update.[5] [6] Premiere Pro CS3 added support for output to Blu-Ray, MPEG-4/H.264 and Flash-based web sites, as well as "Time Remapping," a simplified variable frame rate implementation. Premiere Pro CS3 3.1.0 added native Panasonic P2 MXF import, editing and export of DVCPRO, DVCPRO50 and DVCPRO HD material.
Since version 2.0, Premiere Pro has required the processor to support SSE2, which is unavailable in some older processors.[7]
An entry-level version, Adobe Premiere Elements, is available for the consumer market.
Premiere Pro faces direct competition in the marketplace from Sony Vegas, products from Avid, and Apple's Final Cut Pro.
