Adobe Premiere Elements 13 turns your home videos into something worth watching.

If you need proof of Apple’s waning interest in consumer video editing on the Mac, look no further than the this software pack. Thankfully, Adobe is all too happy to pick up this torch and run with it, thanks to a new annual update to Premiere Elements.

Adobe Premiere Elements 13 follows suit with more of the same, turning home videos from blasé to blockbuster.

Favorite Moments By far my favorite feature of PE13 is Favorite Moments. Perfectly suited to the kind of overly long clips we all tend to shoot while on vacation or family events, this option allows you to play a single clip while marking only the moments actually worth using.

Along the same lines as Favorite Moments, PE13’s new Video Story makes it easy to encapsulate life events into polished movies, complete with titles and music to suit the most common occasions: Birthday, Graduation, Travel, Wedding, and General, which you can use to construct movies that won’t fit into a more specific category.

A variety of prebuilt templates cover a wide range of styles; clicking Get Started will download any required content from Adobe’s servers. After selecting photos or videos to import, PE13 presents a storyboard broken into different chapters, and you drag and drop to add your content.

Premiere Elements 13 then takes over, selecting the best parts of each clip, and then adding transitions and music to suit the desired mood. You can add or delete chapters as necessary, and rearrange assets within the chapters until everything is just right.

BRAND NEW sealed pack. Contains DVD disc with Activation Serial Key.
