Adobe has announced a major update to Adobe Express at its MAX London 2025 conference, introducing a suite of new AI-powered tools for video and animation. The features available on both web and mobile are designed to make it easier for users to create dynamic content, generate background footage, and maintain brand consistency across assets. With tools like Clip Maker, Dynamic Animation, and Generate Similar, Adobe is positioning Express as a one-stop solution for both creative professionals and business users.

New video and animation capabilities
The highlight of the update is the new Clip Maker tool, which uses AI to automatically transform long-form video content, such as podcasts or demos, into short, shareable clips. The tool identifies key moments, adds captions, and optimises video format for different social platforms.

For creators aiming to polish their audio, Enhance Speech offers one-tap removal of background noise. The Video Self-Record tool lets users record videos directly within Adobe Express, making it easier to add personal messages or tutorials to projects.
