Adobe Releases Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10

Adobe has announced the release of Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10.

Photoshop Elements 10
Powered by the same engine as Adobe Photoshop, the industry standard for digital imaging, Photoshop Elements 10 utilizes intelligent technology that makes it easy to give everyday photos a boost. Photoshop technology is brought to life through easy to follow steps for achieving stunning photo effects in an approachable way with new Guided Edits, which are very popular and successful. These include innovations such as creating a shallow depth of field or designing a fun layout of snapshots with Picture Stack, or even adding a dream-like diffused glow with the Orton effect.

New text functionality, which scrapbookers will especially love, allows users to add curving, flowing text to a photo that automatically follows the outline of a subject, custom path or shape. In addition, special crop guides now help users at any level easily achieve interesting, visually appealing compositions. Also, the Smart Brush lets users paint unique effects onto specific areas of photos and now features 30 new effects like Pencil Sketch and Oil Pastel.


Premiere Elements 10
Adobe Premiere Elements 10 empowers users to take advantage of amazing tools that help make the most out of every video. Enhancing visual clarity is even easier with Adobe Photoshop's color correction technology for video, including new one-click tools and pro-style corrections for perfect color throughout each movie. New InstantMovie themes automatically create compelling videos in seconds. All these features make creating finished movies just as fun, as it is easy.

Users can turn individual photos into entertaining videos with Adobe Premiere Elements 10 by taking advantage of pan and zoom motions to add drama and interest. Automated options do the work of finding faces using content-intelligent face detection to pan and zoom to the most important elements of a photo – the people. Mac users now have the ability to use SmartSound to add a variety of musical tracks that perfectly match the length of movies.
