Todd Kopriva has announced the release of NVIDIA Cuda Drivers 5.5.47. You can download them from the CUDA control panel or NVIDIA’s CUDA site.
I had to update to 5.5.28 first to get the 5.5.47 update, guess I have not updated in a while.
I love that Adobe is really listening and releasing new features and bug fixes so quickly! It is just really too bad that the studios are basically forcing people to use AVID Media Composer, when for any graphics heavy show, Premiere Pro is such a better solution, just for lack of render time, and saving time with alphas and exports.
Adobe’s After Effects blog has the news, on this manual update (it is only for Mavericks users so it is not installed through the creative cloud app). You can download it here.

I love that new layers now are created directly above the selected layer, and the ease of linking layers across compositions! VERY VERY COOL!
Yes, just 4 months after their last upgrade, Adobe is good to it’s word and is turning around much faster upgrades with creative cloud, and in October are upgrading Premiere Pro, After Effects, Speed Grade, Prelude, Media Encoder, Story and are adding the iOS app Prelude Live Logger. Awesome! You can check out the upgrades at Adobe.
Steve Forde at the Adobe After Effects Blog has a post on the new After Effects Features.
The Adobe Premiere Pro Work area Blog has more on Premiere Pro, Media Encoder (which now has GPU enabled rendering!) and Prelude and Prelude Live Logger.
The Adobe Moving Colors blog has more on the SpeedGrade Upgrade which includes direct link (an improvement over Dynamic Linking which you can see more about here) and GPU acceleration.
Thank you Adobe, looking forward to it! And here’s to hoping that Adobe permanently keeps up this rapid pace of development, except it will certainly keep us editors on our toes, as I have just scratched the surface of CC by now! Ha!
Stu has updated his ProLost Burns effects. You can read all about them, or order them for $3.99. It is a simple and easy way to create the Ken Burns effect within After Effects.
Thanks Stu!
