    Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium and Master Collection - Press Release

    Adobe Ships Creative Suite 3 Production Premium and Master Collection

    Roll-Out Completes Largest Software Release in Adobe’s 25-Year History
    SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today announced the immediate availability of Adobe® Creative Suite® 3 Production Premium and Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection software. Adobe Production Premium CS3 is the industry’s most comprehensive collection of integrated cross-platform post-production software tools, helping video professionals deliver stunning results for film, broadcast, DVD, Web, and mobile devices. Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection combines 12 of Adobe’s new design and development products in a single box – the most comprehensive creative environment ever delivered.

    Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium and Master Collection ship today in North America, with other language versions – including French, German and Japanese – available by mid July. With Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Editions and Creative Suite 3 Web Editions already in market and receiving rave customer reviews, this completes the roll-out of the company’s revolutionary Creative Suite 3 family, the largest software release in Adobe’s 25-year history.

    “One word: integration. People around the world will be amazed by how easy it is to move among applications in Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection and Production Premium,” said Jason Zada, executive creative director and founder of EVB, a digital content marketing agency in San Francisco, CA. “Because our workflow is so heavily based on moving very quickly through applications, this new Adobe software will save us hundreds of hours that we can put back into our projects.”

    Capture-to-Delivery Workflow with Production Premium
    Now available for both PC and Mac platforms, Adobe Production Premium integrates time-saving workflow technologies with milestone releases of Adobe After Effects® CS3 Professional, Adobe Premiere® Pro CS3, Adobe Encore® CS3, Adobe Photoshop® CS3 Extended, Adobe Illustrator® CS3, Adobe Flash® CS3 Professional, and Adobe® Soundbooth™ CS3, which can also be purchased as stand-alone applications. Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 software offers enhanced features such as new format support and a unique Time Remapping tool that improves slow motion and variable speed effects. After Effects CS3 software offers Shape Layers for drawing and animating vector shapes; the Puppet tool for stretching and manipulating 2D images as lifelike animations; and the Brainstorm tool for interactively generating and previewing animation variations. For audio, Soundbooth CS3 software enables post-production professionals to clean up recordings, polish voiceovers, customize music and sound effects — even if audio production isn’t their specialty.

    Special additions to Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium include Adobe OnLocation™ CS3 for direct-to-disk recording and monitoring and Adobe Ultra® CS3 software for easy chroma keying. For Macintosh users, Adobe OnLocation requires Boot Camp and Windows (purchased separately) or a separate Windows® based computer. Adobe Ultra CS3 is only included in the Windows edition.

    The Best Creative Tools Come Together

    Wow, for the price of the software a guy could have some real serious hardware.

    I'm striving to be a decent photographer, not a graphics artist.

    we got the stripped back education edition of the design standard. It has what are for us the big three: Indesign Photoshop and Illustrator. I would have liked it to have flash and premier but i couldn't justify the expense even at educational prices. so i am using premier 2.0 and audition 1.5 and encore 1.5 (from an older production bundle) i would love to get my teeth into after effects and flash but also there is little time and less money.
