You probably already know by now that Adobe has decided to rebrand "Flash CC" as "Animate CC." This took pretty much everybody by surprise but heavy users, like myself, were hoping for a move just like this and I'll tell you why. But first, here's what I know so far about Adobe Animate CC:

-We’re getting a new brush to play with in the form of a vector art brush system. Like in Illustrator, You can make custom brushes and can modify the path of a stroke after its drawn… you can even ANIMATE the path of a brush stroke (so says the release video). If this means easier handwriting animation… that’ll make explainer videos a bit easier, won’t it

-They’re implementing a colored onion skinning system (like Toon Boom)

-Adobe Stock is continuing its CC implementation across all program updates meaning you can browse its vector art library and pick one to drag and drop on the stage without ever leaving the program

-They’re focusing their video output to HTML5 and 4K video support… although they’ll still support SWF and AIR (they’re Adobe, afterall)

-We’re getting the bone-tool back! I mean, I only used it once but some people love it

-You’ll be able to rotate the canvas just like other drawing apps

-Drop H.264 videos right onto your Timeline to use as a guide layer.

-Updated Motion Editor gives you granular control over motion tween properties like color effects, transformations and many more
