## Summary

Adobe has unveiled several experimental creative tools at its annual Max conference, including one that turns flat images into navigable 3D scenes and another that lets creators develop AI characters through conversation. The projects show how Adobe is exploring more interactive ways to make and edit video, though their place in its existing products is unclear.

Project Screen Test lets users set a character’s traits and voice, build its personality by chatting, then generate animated screen tests in described scenarios. Project Sight Span creates a navigable 3D environment from photos, paintings or illustrations, filling in areas beyond the original frame; its preview is pixelated, but the selected view is rendered at higher quality. Project Sound Bender generates and syncs sound effects to video, with a canvas for adjusting the mix.
