When the Essential Graphics panel was first introduced in Premiere Pro several years ago, it was lacking some critical features. Over the last few updates, however, Adobe has been slowly adding new features. This version of Premiere is especially Essential Graphics-heavy. Let’s take a look at all of these new features.
Multiple Strokes
You can now add multiple strokes to a text or shape element. With a layer selected, go to the Appearance tab and hit the plus button next to Stroke. You can add up to 10 strokes, and you can even add strokes to individual characters of text layers.
Stroke Styles
In addition to adding multiple strokes to your text, you can specify how you want to style the stroke. Click the wrench icon in the Appearance tab to open the Graphics Properties dialogue box. Here’s where you can modify the Join and Cap attributes of your strokes.
Backgrounds
Just underneath the stroke attributes, you can now create a background for your text. These backgrounds will snap to your text and responsively resize. You can change opacity and size. Unfortunately, you can’t change the width and height individually.
Masks
You can now quickly create a mask via a shape or text element. A mask will affect all of the layers beneath it. If you want to isolate a mask and only apply to specific layers, place your layers into groups.
Font Replacement
Premiere will now automatically sync up any missing fonts — so you won’t be seeing that warning message any longer. If the font is not available in the Adobe library, it will still replace it with an existing font. However, you can now specify the default replacement font in Preferences > Graphics.
Drag and Drop MOGRTs
Working with motion graphic templates has always been a bit clunky, especially when it comes to importing them into Premiere Pro. Trying to import multiple MOGRTs at once has always lead to headaches. Now, it’s as simple as dragging and dropping in the Essential Graphics panel.

Alongside new versions of After Effects, Character Animator, and Premiere Rush, Adobe has updated all of its major audio and video apps. Most introduce new features such as automatic reframing, and all have improved performance.
As part of its giant update of Creative Cloud apps, Adobe has released new editions of its major video and audio software including Premiere Pro, Audition and After Effects. Overall, the apps have had performance improvements, but most also have new features.
Premiere Pro and its associated After Effects app have seen the most additions. The video editor now includes Auto Reframe, a machine-learning-powered system that automatically crops and pans footage to fit different formats.
Adobe Premiere New Features
Specifically, footage shot in regular 16:9 widescreen can be automatically reformatted to square, vertical or a custom aspect ratio. Adobe says this uses its Sensei technology to analyze the footage so that it keeps the main action within the frame. The automatic results are adjustable, meaning you can fine-tune any part of your footage.
Premiere Pro New Features
Premiere Pro also extends Adobe's Time Mapping feature. This is how you speed up a video clip and previously Premiere Pro let you create a fast-forward motion of up to 1,000% of the original speed. Now that's increased to 20,000%.
After Effects, the Apple Motion-like effects editor, has a new GPU architecture as well as improvements to how the app uses the Mac's CPU. Adobe claims this means improves performance to allow for previewing effects in real time.

Adobe also specifies that its recent Content-Aware Fill feature, introduced earlier in 2019, now runs at twice the speed while utilizing half its previous memory requirements. Multichannel EXR files are reportedly up to between 10 and 12 times faster. Similarly, importing ProRes HDR is said to be up to 10 times faster.
Premiere Pro 2020 New Features
Audition, Adobe's audio editing app, has also been updated with new and improved multichannel audio effects workflows.
All of the updates to these apps are available now via Adobe Creative Cloud. Creative Cloud is a subscription service offering certain individual apps for either $9.99 or $20.99 per month, or a bundle of them all starting at $52.99 per month.
