## History

Introduced in December 1991, Premiere was one of the first computer non-linear editing systems.[1] The first version for Mac released in 1991, and the first version for Microsoft Windows was released in September 1993.[2] The project began at SuperMac Technology as ReelTime, a QuickTime-based video editor for its VideoSpigot video capture card.[3] SuperMac engineer Randy Ubillos created a working demo of ReelTime in about 10 weeks while QuickTime was still in beta.[4] The software project was acquired by Adobe Systems in August 1991 and was renamed Adobe Premiere.[3] Ubillos also left SuperMac to join Adobe.[4]

## Features

Premiere was one of the first QuickTime-based video editors on the market.[5] As a result, its ability to import new video formats could also be upgraded by updating to a newer compatible version of Quicktime. However, it was limited to processing video and images that were 1024 pixels wide, or less.[6]

Premiere included 24 transition effects and a plug-in architecture that was compatible with some Photoshop filters.[5]
