Graphic Design, Photography, Video Editing - Adobe Creative Cloud

Adobe Creative Cloud is a set of applications and services from Adobe that gives subscribers access to industry-standard software used for graphic design, video editing, web development, photography, and more. Popular applications included in Adobe CC include Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, and Lightroom. Acrobat Pro is also included with Adobe CC.

IT provides access to Adobe CC in two ways depending on the need: direct licensing or shared licensing.

  • Direct access means a license is assigned to an individual and comes with features including 100GB of cloud storage, Adobe Stock, Adobe Express and the ability to use apps on up to two devices.
  • Shared access means anyone with a Del Mar College email account can sign into devices that have shared licensing enabled. This includes college-provided employee devices and lab computers.

Adobe Acrobat Sign is not included in either version of Adobe CC, but can be requested as an add-on.

Features

  • Photoshop offers powerful tools for retouching, compositing, and creating digital artwork.
  • Illustrator is a vector-based design application used for creating logos, icons, illustrations, and other scalable graphics.
  • Premiere Pro is an advanced tool that allows users to edit, enhance, and produce high-quality videos.
  • Other apps that may come with Adobe Creative Cloud: InDesign, InCopy, Lightroom, Photoshop Express, Bridge, Dreamweaver, XD, After Effects, Animate, Audition, Dimension, Premiere Rush, Fresco, and Adobe Firefly.
  • Tutorials, fonts, and stock images may also be included, along with cloud storage, libraries, and plugins.
