Mixamo’s ability to create a control rig on a character model, by applying motion capture clips, can now be accessed directly inside Blender.

Mixamo speeds up the process of rigging biped characters for video games or visual effects, which normally is very time consuming. With the plugin, users can tweak parameters and switch presets to iterate and reuse assets faster, optimizing the workflow as they go. The Substance 3D in Blender plugin allows Blender users to access the Substance library of textures and 3D assets without leaving Blender itself, and use the Substance materials (SBSAR) files in Blender projects. Substance 3D and Mixamo Plugins for BlenderĪs well as joining the Blender Development Fund, Adobe is launching two new plugins - Substance 3D in Blender and Mixamo Auto-Control Rig Plugin for Blender. Supporting 13 languages, Speech to Text is included with Premiere Pro or Creative Cloud All Apps subscriptions at no additional cost.

The captions can then be customised using the design tools in the Essential Graphics panel. When finalised, captions are automatically created from the transcript on the Timeline, using Adobe Sensei machine learning to match the pacing of human speech.

Where changes are needed, users can edit the text in the transcript. As well as shortening the time it takes to create a transcription and captions, it gives the editor new ways to search and navigate video sequences – when you double-click on a word in the Text panel, the playhead moves to that position in the Premiere Pro timeline. Speech to Text is a new tool and workflow in Premiere Pro that completes each step of the captioning workflow inside the NLE automatically, while leaving the creative control over the results to the user. These updates contribute to simpler, faster workflows, and launch new integrations with the open source 3D tool, Blender. Adobe released updates across the Creative Cloud applications Premiere Pro and After Effects, Substance 3D, Mixamo and the mobile painting tool, Fresco.
