The DVD version of Adobe Premiere Elements 13 for Mac and Windows is a versatile and intuitive editing and organizing program for managing a complete digital video workflow. Beginning with a wide range of editing and enhancement capabilities, Elements 13 presents a breadth of unique tools and effects for automatically optimizing the look and feel of videos, as well as the sequencing and sharing of finalized movies. Favorite Moments provides the ability to create a movie simply by selecting those "favorite" moments from a given video clip, Guided Edits can be used to both learn and accomplish specific editing techniques while simultaneously using video tutorials, and Video Story's selectable themes help to more quickly start a project and tell the desired story. FilmLooks enable you to replicate the appearance of Hollywood effects and editing techniques and Auto Smart Tone works to efficiently adjust the colors and tones of videos based on learned personal preferences. More than 50 musical scores and over 250 sound effects can be applied to movies and smart automated options can help to correct for shaky footage, color and lighting issues, audio balancing, and removing unwanted footage from clips. Color balance can be easily adjusted using an intuitive slider system and highlights, shadows, and mid-tones can be independently controlled to create a refined, personal feel.
The expansive set of editing capabilities is housed within a friendly environment, featuring easy-to-recognize icons and commands for a more seamless working method. Quick or Expert modes can be selected depending on the amount of manipulation and control desired during editing, and distinct Editor and Organizer interfaces allow for intuitive handling of clips. Mobile device support helps to make files recorded with a smartphone or tablet readily available within Elements, and conversely, files housed within Elements albums can be viewed and shared from linked mobile devices. A rich set of tagging controls, based on subject, location, or event, help to streamline navigating immense catalogs of imagery and support direct uploading of content to social media sites, including Facebook, YouTube, and Vimeo.
