1What the notes say
Adobe announces the Firefly Video Model in news releases and blog posts rather than a changelog. Seven dated notes follow it from a limited public beta in October 2024, with camera controls for angle, motion and zoom and Generative Extend in Premiere Pro, to 1080p and start and end keyframes in the new Firefly app in February 2025, better motion and composition references in July 2025, and camera motion copied from a reference video in December 2025.

7Using the models, not reading about them
Release notes such as “Adobe Firefly Video” matter once a pipeline runs the models; SceneMixer's guides describe how it does:
Paste a scene or a short script and SceneMixer gives you a storyboard — numbered shots with framing and seconds — and then a moving version of each segment, which you can join into a rough cut of the scene.
SceneMixer, Using SceneMixer for Previs and Animatics Before a Live-Action Shoot (read 2026-10-13)
SceneMixer writes dialogue into the script analysis, assigns each line to a shot with a speaker and a short delivery note, and the video model performs it — picture and audio generated together, so the mouth forms that sentence in the language you chose.
