op new eaures o Adobe Aer Eecs CS6

Global Performance Cachehe Global Perormance Cache eaure is a revoluion under he hood ha makes Aer Eecs

aser and more responsive han ever beore by aking ull advanage o he power o your

compuers hardware.

Global Perormance Cache comprises a se o echnologies: a global RAM cache, a persisen disk

cache, and a new graphics pipeline.

Global RAM cache

Adobe Aer Eecs CS6 conains a vasly improved rame caching sysem ha allows you o reuse

elemens or play wha i wih various ideas wihou having o wai or a previously creaed rameo re-render. For example, you can ry a new idea, and hen undo i you don like i, wihou any

penaly in produciviy.

Wha is happening under he hood is hawihin he limis o available memoryany rame o

a composiion or layer inside an Aer Eecs projec ha is he same as a previously rendered

and cached rame does no need o be re-rendered. Reusable rames are recognized anywhere on

he imeline, including when using loop expressions, ime remapping, and copying hen pasing

keyramesno jus on adjacen rames. Reusable rames are also recognized on duplicaed layers

or duplicaed composiions. Cached rames are resored aer an undo/redo; cached rames are

also resored when a composiion or layer is reurned o a previous sae, such as oggling a layers

visibiliy o and hen back on.

Persistent disk cacheWih Aer Eecs CS6, you can reopen a projec you were working on earlier, and your previously

rendered cache is sill inac, ready or immediae preview playback and rendering. You can also

render and cache a composiions work area o disk in he background while you coninue o work.

Aer Eecs calculaes i a rame cached o RAM would ake less ime o rerieve rom disk han

o render again, and i so, i is also copied o a special user-deined disk cache. Upon opening a

projec, he disk cache is scanned, looking or rames maching hose in he projec, and makes

hem available again or immediae use wihou he need or re-rendering. his is paricularly a

boon when you need o work on muliple projecs during he course o he day or week.

Green bars indicae a composiion has

been cached ino RAM (above); blue

bars indicae i has been cached o disk

(righ). When you open a projec you

previously worked on, he composiionyou previewed earlier displays a blue

disk-cache indicaor bar, indicaing ha

hose rames have been sored on disk

and are available or immediae use

wihou he need or re-rendering.


4/11


Addiionally, his cache conains rames rom all projecs you have opened in he same or earlier

sessions, so disk-cached rames rom one projec will be rerieved or reuse in oher projecs ha

need hose same rames.

You have conrol over which disk you use or caching as well as how much space o reserve or he cache.

New graphics pipeline

Aer Eecs CS6 beer harnesses OpenGL and he video card in your compuer when drawing

images o he screen. his resuls in aser ineraciviy, a more highly responsive work

environmen, and a smooher, more immediae user experience.

You ge improved playback o memory-cached rames as well as improved perormance while

working in larger Composiion, Layer, and Fooage viewer sizes (paricularly useul or working

wih larger image ormas and on larger displays). Speciic beneis include aser manipulaion olayers wih graphical overlays such as bounding box handles, masks, moion racker poins, and

moion pahs, as well as working more eicienly wih viewers ha conain overlays such as guides

and grids, cusom user ineraces or e ecs, and ineracions like brush size adjusmens.

Based on early ess o Aer E ecs CS6 perormed by NVIDIA, depending on hardware

coniguraion, many o hese uncions have been acceleraed by a acor o 1.5 o 2.5wih

some (such as grids, guides, and rulers) being up o 16 imes aser han beore.

3D Camera Trackerhe new 3D Camera racker eec auomaically analyzes he moion presen in 2D ooage;

compues he posiion, orienaion, and ield o view o he real camera ha sho he scene; and

creaes a new 3D camera in Aer Eecs o mach. I also overlays 3D rack poins ono he 2D ooage,

making i easy and inuiive or you o aach new 3D Aer Eecs layers ono he original ooage.

As a resul, hese 3D layers have he same movemen and perspecive changes as he original

ooage, allowing you o inser new objecs ino exising scenes wih relaive easea boon boh

when augmening realiy wih visual eecs and when creaing new realiies wih moion graphics.

he 3D Camera racker eec even helps creae shadow cachers, so your new 3D layers can cas

realisic shadows ono la suraces in he exising ooage.

he 3D Camera racker can make inelligen decisions o analyze your ooage unassised, or you

can ener daa abou he original sho or even more precise resuls. Based on an approach similar

o ha o he Warp Sabilizer inroduced in Aer Eecs CS5.5, his analysis akes place in he

background while you coninue working, urher increasing your produciviy or wha used o be

a very labor-inensive ask.


Te 3D Camera racker grealy simplifes previously labor-inensive visual eecs asks such as replacing muliple daa

screens arranged a muliple angles, sho wih a handheld camera.

Fully ray-traced, extruded text and shapesAer Eecs CS6 inroduces a new ray-raced 3D rendering engine, allowing you o simply and

quickly design ully ray-raced, geomeric ex and shape layers in 3D space. hese enhanced 3D

capabiliies include:

he new ray-raced renderer is available as an alernaive

and you can look hrough ranslucen objecs o see hoselayers. By using a ray racer o render he scene, he resul

is now also more physically accurae, including improved

so shadows and deph-o-ield blur, plus sharper ligh

Variable Mask FeatheringWih Variable Mask Feahering, you can work precisely and creae he exac shape you wan wih

creaive possibiliies.

Aer Eecs has long had he abiliy o add a eahered so edge o masked shapes, bu in previous

versions he widh o he eaher was he same around he enire mask. Aer E ecs CS6 conains

a new Mask Feaher ool ha les you deine a virually ininie number o poins along a closed

mask, and deine he widh o he eaher a each o hese poins. his means some secions such as

hard meallic edges can remain sharp, while oher secions ha are ou o ocus or oherwise

Variable Mask Feahering makes i possible o creae more nuanced ransparency wih ewer masks.

Tight integration with Adobe Illustrator CS6Adobe Illusraor soware has long been a avorie or creaing complex ex layous, logos, and

Rolling Shutter RepairDigial cameras wih CMOS sensorsincluding video-capable DSLRs, which are becoming

increasingly popular or he creaion o ilms, commercials, and elevision showsypically have

wha is commonly known as a rolling shuer, which capures a rame o video one scan line a

same ime, causing moion o ripple down he rame. I he camera or he subjec is moving, he

rolling shuer can cause disorions, such as leaning buildings and oher skewed images. Dealing

wih his ooage can cause headaches, especially when aemping o composie he ooage wih
