EditMate delivers a toolkit for managing and editing projects in a streamlined, intuitive and highly efficient manner – all from within Adobe® Premiere®. From project creation and collecting media, to the export and storage of edited material, users benefit from a series of features designed to simplify the spectrum of tasks involved in a modern, collaborative and cloud-connected editing environment.
Project creation made easy. With EditMate, projects, templates and initial metadata entries are all unified into a single process, ensuring consistent formatting and conventions are maintained.
With HD proxy editing, EditMate and Adobe Premiere remote users, with a low bandwidth connection and unable to directly access the central storage, can continue their routine workflows via proxy. And when it comes to rendering, EditMate renders the sequences into new clips centrally, along with all Adobe Premiere effects and elements, effectively streamlining the publishing process.
