How can we improve Premiere Pro?

← Premiere Pro

Enhancement of essential graphics text tools

We want to be able to add gradients, scene features, and apply multiple shadows to text (as with legacy titles).

It is inevitable that legacy titles will disappear someday.
However, we want at least the features equivalent to legacy titles to be included in Essential Graphics.
For that purpose, I want to be able to add a gradient scene function and apply multiple shadows.
The Essential Graphics text tool has evolved significantly with the April 2019 update. Especially in Japan, joy was raised. Later, if you evolve a little more, it will create great value in the Japanese video production world.

エッセンシャルグラフィックステキストツールの充実

私たちはテキストに対して、グラデーションやシーン機能の追加、シャドウの複数適用ができるようになってほしい（レガシータイトルができていたように）。

レガシータイトルがいつかなくなってしまうのは仕方がない。
しかし、少なくともレガシータイトルと同等の機能が、エッセンシャルグラフィックスに搭載されてからにして欲しい。
そのためにも、グラデーション・シーン機能の追加、そしてシャドウの複数適用ができるようになって欲しい。
エッセンシャルグラフィックスのテキストツールは、2019年4月のアップデートで大きく進化した。特に日本では喜びの声が上がった。後もう少し、進化をしてくれると日本の映像制作世界の中で大きな価値を生み出すでしょう。

    Fantastic, Nathan! Thank you so much. And yay for the Facebook group, Perre. I hope it gets a lot of members and attention. Will check it out as soon as I get a chance.

    Hi Annika and Nathan,

    I truly appreciate the receptivity of your posts Annika, and I appreciate your ideas on how EG could be improved Nathan.

    I recently started a FB group dedicated to helping Adobe improve Pr. It isn't a substitute for User Voice, which of course is the official venue for making FRs, but rather it's meant as a social gathering place to discuss new ideas and encourage others to vote for FRs we agree with.

    Here's the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1638270639681590/.

    I would love to have your thoughts and insights in the group! :)

  • Nathan B commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    @Annika Koenig - I appreciate your receptivity to my brainstorming in all of it's conversational tone :)

    Annika, I think your advice was wise, so I condensed my thoughts into a new UserVoice request.
    If anyone else thinks these could be useful implementations in the Essential Graphics - here's the link to my post for your convenience:

    Thanks!

    @Nathan B, thanks for your thoughtful post. This thread has starting turning into a good place for discussion. However, I would love to see you turn your suggestions into their own User Voice requests, so we can get some feedback on it through votes. What I read in your post:
    - you like warp in Photoshop. So please add a UserVoice request for warp in Premiere Pro
    - you like tools from Illustrator and InDesign and think that Premiere is missing some of the tools. What tools or functionality specifically are you missing? Add a UserVoice request for that too!
    - Text Effects - what would you picture there? Give me a couple of examples what you would like to see here.

    I am interested :)
    Annika

    @ James_S, @ R_Neil_Haugen, @Mike_Berry_Adobe

    Hello EG Team! Well, you guys got me (out of fear I re-layed-out my 114 titles oft used in weekly worship services in Essential Graphics). My titling is kind of basic, so I can recreate any effects *normally* needed in the timeline outside of the Legacy Titler (i'm hoping... this is my first weekend of implementation of new bin of Master Graphics set).

    You know what would be really nifty~ IF (as others in this -and other- forums have requested) your engineers could integrate other Adobe Applications' tried and true text effects in Premiere. I don't have a lot of time (nor interest) to build up my titles to .mogrts in AE. FOR ME= the PS Warp tool has always been a fun, craftily usable, and dynamic effect. How bout starting with that in Premiere? Then if Essential Graphics is truly supposed to live up to it's name --- Make it an Essential location for textual graphics and add Illustrator, InDesign, and alll the other toolsets' character modules for really building up graphics.

    OKAY_ I know Premiere is for EDITING FOOTAGE. But c'mon, with that whole tab for "Graphics" and the whole plethora of text display code (and team of coders) let's bring Premiere into the 21st Century. Ideally implementing "Text Effects" even in the Effects Panel.

    I think your users deserve it no less. You've got our subscriptions - and honestly now our attention with EG - Let Us Make Great Videos with it.

    Nathan

    p.s. 2 months ago I almost discontinued my Creative Cloud subscription and migrated to Resolve. I was "This close... instead I opted for your multi-screen displays and my History with Adobe. Please don't make me regret it :)

    ・I want you to be able to freely change the size of the character frame.
    There are many things I want to use because the screen is full.
    ・Textures and graphics can be used for character frames
    ・Be able to double the character frame
    ・I want you to be able to place graphics in layers

    I don't think Adobe understands the actual situation in Japan.
    The title has been pretty poor for almost 30 years.

    ・ザブトンの大きさを自由に変更できるようにしてほしい。画面ヨコいっぱいで使いたい事が多い。
    ・ザブトンにテクスチャ、グラフイックを使えるように
    ・文字のフレームを二重にできるように
    ・レイヤーにグラフィックを配置できるようにして欲しい

    Adobeは日本の実情が良くわかってないと思う。
    30年近く前からタイトルに関してはかなり貧弱。

  • Pierre Louis Beranek commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    No Essential Graphics titles in the Project window... no Deal! Until Essential Graphics titles have ALL of the features found in the Legacy Titler, I will continue to use the Legacy Titler. Adobe, make new tools better, not a cheaper, more limited version of the tool it hopes to someday replace. And make text tracking keyframeable, please! I can do this in AE, but it would be great to be able to do such a simple effect in Premiere Pro.

    @James S
    thanks for the comment.
    Premiere Pro allows you to set multiple strokes for text.
    Please allow multiple shadows to be added.
    I also want to be able to apply a gradient to the text. (Not the shape layer gradient, it's text!)
    The gradation function is desired by many users.

    @James S - sorry, my bad, too many late nights! I meant to say that I would like Shadows for graphics that I add to the EG layers - if I drag in a PNG etc., then there is no shadow (I was using a fancy gradient circle I had made elsewhere, but then found I had to recreate it in PPro because I was missing the shadow). Then I found out how I can't make a simple circle and constrain the aspect ratio. (Now THAT is a feature I really need for circular masks for picture-in-picture.) Thanks.

    One thing that was mention in the Premiere Pro forum is that the Essential Graphics Panel does not put the titles in the bins. That is the real deal breaker for me. I want to be able to select what bin I want my titles in.

    是非とも、レガシータイトルで使用出来ていましたグラデーションなどや
    たくさんスタイルが保存出来る事を
    そのまま移行して頂きましたら幸いです。よろしくお願い申し上げます。

  • Kosuke Iwao commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    マジでコレ。
    AEからグラデーションテキストを持ってきているものの、重すぎて話にならないので、
    プレミアで標準装備にして欲しい。

    レガシータイトルはエッセンシャルグラフィックス勢になった今、かなり操作が面倒。

  • Roland Kahlenberg commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    I made a type tool for PPro based on AE's Text Tool. It's already got a built-in gradient and tonnes of features. I spent a short while adding Sheen, Bevel, Stroke and basic texture. No drop shadows yet as I think you should be able to use PPro's Drop Shadow and create a preset from there. I'm a bit concerned with preview performance for AE MoGRTs.

    Here's what I came up with. I think it looks OK even though it's not going to satisfy all your needs.
    If someone from Japan is willing to help me test and tweak this thingy, we my have a good solution - PM me.

    Thank you all for taking the time to contribute here. The feature request I submitted some time ago is still there and we have implemented some improvements but not all of them yet. We understand that the Legacy Titler cannot go away if there are still bug gaps in a lot of users' workflows. For now, let me clarify some things to make sure you understand you available options right now.

    (1) Gradients - gradients for Shape layers are already possible with Pr graphics. This includes multiple stops, angle control and opacity gradients. Simply select a shape, click on Fill in the EGP, and then use the Gradient fill pulldown in the upper left of the Color Picker. You will then see UI that will let you set Color and Transparency stops as well as a start, end and mid point for your gradient.

    (2) Layers with texture fill - textured fill is possible by means of our EGP masking feature. Put an image (still or video) under your Text (or other) Layers as a Clip Layer in the EGP. Select the top Layer and then check on Mask with Text (or Mask with Shape) and you will now have a layer that has a textured fill. (see attached screenshot) Put the two layers inside a Group in the EGP and the masking will not affect layers outside that Group.

    Note; You can make your own Gradient for Text by using the same basic steps I just described for Texture fill. Just use a Shape with a Gradient fill as your underlying Layer instead of a clip Layer.
