Get to Great Faster with Premiere Pro and the Adobe Apps
Adobe Video Livestream Series with Jason Levine and special guests, April 14 – 17, 2020.
It’s a little different this year, without the NAB buzz we’re all used to, on the show floor and in the news. While we can’t travel to tradeshows these days, we can still connect with each other. Starting at 9:30am PT on April 14th, Adobe is presenting a special video livestream series on Premiere Pro and the Adobe video/audio apps. We’ll be looking at tools, case studies, and workflows (local and remote) that help you get to great faster. Join Adobe evangelist Jason Levine, product team members, and inspiring content creators for engaging demos, discussion, and live Q&A. See the full schedule (and list of recent announcements and resources) below.
