A new set of experimental AI tools from Adobe has the potential to transform the way people generate photographs, videos and animations. Presented at the Adobe MAX conference, these new tools are meant to make complicated tasks easier for creators, allowing them more flexibility and control.

Automating 3D scenes and animation

Adobe’s first AI tool, Project Scenic, enables users to create and manipulate 3D scenes with ease. This tool offers more control compared to Adobe’s current Firefly AI model, allowing creators to add, move and resize objects within the scene.

Another interesting innovation that makes moving text and simple pictures easier is Project Motion. Users don’t need any prior experience to animate their material. Motion effects can be added by creators,and the AI tool improves animation by applying backdrops, textures, and colors based on descriptions.

Cleaning up photos and videos

Project Clean Machine is another MAX conference highlight. It’s a tool that can be used to eliminate distracting elements from photos and videos. Unwanted objects in frames, camera flashes and overexposed areas can all be fixed using this tool. It functions as an improved version of content-aware fill, guaranteeing a smooth outcome.

Turning 2D art into 3D

Additionally, Adobe unveiled Project Turntable, which allows 2D vector art to be rotated like a 3D object. This tool allows artists to quickly exhibit an image from multiple perspectives instead of having to redraw it. Project Turntable fills in the missing portions of the artwork with a generative AI model.

Transforming sketches into digital designs

Another tool that caught attention is Project Remix a Lot, which allows users to turn hand-drawn sketches into digital designs in seconds. This AI tool even preserves the original style, letting creators tweak and edit the designs afterward.

Gauging interest for future releases

Adobe’s MAX conference showcases these tools as part of the company’s “Sneaks” program. While there’s no guarantee these tools will become widely available, many past Sneaks have been fully integrated into Adobe’s software after gathering user feedback.
