Edit is a creative process. Seeing how your story takes shape to your eyes is fun, but it can also be frustrating; This is especially true when you are starting and you want to edit your videos with professional software, but you begin to find technical obstacles. Is it familiar to you? Then our new course “Introduction to Adobe Premiere Pro” could be the perfect option to embark on your next editing adventure.
In approximately an hour, the experienced filmmaker and instructor Digby Hogan shows the participants the non -linear (NLE) adobe professional level with humor and passion. It is true that Premiere Pro is a powerful and widely used program, with which all kinds of films and videos are created (such as “Gone Girl” by David Fincher or the Netflix series “Mindhunter”). However, it is still accessible to beginners, who can start using it without major difficulties. This is the approach that Digby Hogan intends to demonstrate in its brief miniseries of three parts.
Introduction to Adobe Premiere Pro – the objective
The main idea of the new course is that Premiere Pro beginners can start from zero in the fastest and most efficient way possible. In other words, without deepening advanced configurations that you probably do not need now (or perhaps ever) for the type of videos you plan to edit. Digby Hogan guides participants for all basic steps: from the importation of your multimedia files to the final cut. Throughout the course, it covers key aspects that everyone should know, such as where to find music free of rights, how to cut to the rhythm of the music and what the four main premiere pro sections consist of.
And you know what makes this course so entertaining? His hilarious and dynamic approach. I promise you that you can complete all the lessons at once and, at some point, you will be dancing to the rhythm of Jingle Bells’s remix with a big smile. Basically, it is all that a passionate about learning wants.
What else will you learn in “Introduction to Adobe Premiere Pro”?
The course is divided into three short modules:
- Preparation for edition: Digby Hogan shows you how to open and save your project, and offer you a tour of the Premiere Pro interface.
- Building the bases of your edition: Where creativity is present. We enter the search for music and know some tools of the Timeline with which we can work (such as the “Razor” tool to cut video and audio clips, which Digby usually calls “blade”).
- Edition of your History: The longest, 30 -minute module covers the foundations of the linear edition at the speed of the lightning and includes tips to improve the edition, insert jump cuts, add a title and adjust parameters such as scale and position.
At the end of this brief course, Digby will have exported a short video of one of your trips, and we hope you do it too if you have seen your demonstration from beginning to end. We hope you achieve this and acquire new skills that will help you create and share your own video stories.
Reviewing the foundations
Personally, I’ve been working with Adobe Premiere Pro for many years, but even for me, this course was refreshing. As an example, I discovered many tips and tools that I knew and forgotten, or that I had never implemented. Some of my ideas were:
- Activate and deactivate the waveform in audio clips. To do this, you just have to click on the configuration icon at the top of the Timeline tab and look for the “Show audio wave shape” line.
- If you pass the mouse on the panel tools, not only the name of the tool is shown, but also the current keyboard shortcut. Honestly, I had never noticed it.
- How to use the sliding tool to maintain the duration of a specific clip (such as a container) but move its content to a new starting point. It is very useful to adjust the transitions within the edited musical track.
- If you select all the files on the track (for example, the entire audio of the location) and use the keyboard shortcut for the default transition (CMD+T, in the case of Digby and on mine), Premiere will automatically add a melted between each clip. This helps to speed up the edition.
Therefore, even if you are already editor and you are considering changing another non -linear editing system to Adobe Premiere Pro, this course is an excellent starting point. And for those who want to deepen, there is another more complete course of the software taught by Digby Hogan: a 25 -hour Mzed course entitled “Learn everything about Premiere Pro.”
