Below are notes from the Adobe MAX 2021 conference keynote, an event that brings together creatives to build skills in design, video, photography, illustration, UI, and UX. Most sessions are available on demand.

3 Goals for Adobe Creative Cloud, Scott Belsky

1. Enable connected creativity

  • Everything in cloud: assets, apps, team
  • Assets always available and updated

Highlights:

  • Creative Cloud Canvas (beta) — a virtual whiteboard for team collaboration and brainstorm
  • Creative Cloud Spaces (beta) — a centralized space for shared access to content, libraries, linked assets
  • Photoshop Web (beta) — for quick edits in Photoshop on the browser, without the need for collaborators to download the app/have a Creative Cloud subscription
  • Illustrator Web (beta) — for quick edits in Illustrator on the browser, without the need for collaborators to download the app/have a Creative Cloud subscription
  • Creative Cloud libraries (coming soon)— nested groups and team libraries; versioning of past design systems
