AI tools reshaping visual editing introduced at Adobe Max 2025

Adobe this year Max 2025 At his conference, he introduced new artificial intelligence projects that make photo, video and audio editing more intuitive. The company’s “sneaksThe experimental tools he calls “aim to save time and simplify the editing steps in visual production processes.

Among the projects exhibited at the conference Project Frame Forward, Project Light Touch And Project CleanTake came forward. Each reflects a different aspect of Adobe’s vision of integrating AI directly into content production. These tools allow users to achieve natural results without complex selections, masking or re-registration. These new technologies offer significant convenience in professional production processes, especially in areas such as video editing, sound recording improvement and light manipulation.

Project Frame Forwardwas introduced as a system that eliminates years of manual selection processes in the video editing process. This tool automatically applies changes made in the first frame of a video to all frames. Adobe’s stage demo showed how to select and remove a person in a video and fill that area with a natural background. When the user wants to add an object to the scene, he just draws the location and gives a short text command. Artificial intelligence places the object in the scene in accordance with the light direction and movement of the video. This system Photoshop It is considered as an adaptation of the “Context-Aware Fill” feature to moving images.

Another project Project Light Touchredefines light control in photo editing. The tool can change the direction of light sources in the scene, reshape shadows and transform the lighting conditions of the venue. Users can realistically illuminate a room or turn the scene into sunset tones. Parameters such as color temperature, contrast and light spread can also be changed using the drag-and-drop method. This system was developed to eliminate natural light limitations, especially in areas such as product photography and cinema productions.

Adobe’s Clean Take tool offers a new approach to audio editing

Project CleanTakewas introduced as an artificial intelligence model that reduces the need for re-recording in the audio editing process. This tool provides the opportunity to change speech tone, emphasis and emotional expression. The user can change a specific word or sentence in the audio recording, and the speaker’s original voice character is preserved. Clean Take also separates ambient noise into layers, allowing each to be edited independently. This approach is a time-saving solution especially for documentary, podcast and video content producers.

In addition to these three vehicles, several more experimental projects were showcased at the event. Project Surface Swapoffers the opportunity to instantly change the texture and material of object surfaces; Project Turn Styleallows rotating objects in a photo as if they were three-dimensional. Project New Depths It transforms two-dimensional photographs into scenes containing depth information, making the interaction of added objects with the environment more natural. Although these projects are still in development, Adobe plans to use some of these technologies in the future. Creative Cloud plans to include it in its ecosystem.

Adobe’s “sneaks” projects were not released directly to the market this year, as in the past. However, some vehicles in this concept in the past soon became obsolete. Photoshop or Premier Pro It found a place in applications such as. For example, features such as “Harmonize” or “Distraction Removal” first appeared experimentally, but then became permanent components of the software. Similarly, the company plans to open the artificial intelligence tools exhibited at this year’s Max event to developers and content creators in the future.

These projects exhibited at Adobe Max 2025 show what kind of transformation potential artificial intelligence has in visual, audio and video production processes. The company continues to work on solutions that increase production speed while also offering more control to the user. Although these tools are still in the experimental phase, it seems that Adobe continues to position artificial intelligence at the center of creative processes.
