Premiere Pro Beginners Edit : Learn to Edit using a Cooking Video

1. Class Trailer: Hello, my name is Assad. I'm a YouTuber and a video content producer. I've been working with clients all over the world using many different softwares. In this class, I'll be teaching you how to use Adobe Premier Pro to edit your videos. If you have some videos lying around and you always wanted to edit them, what you did not know how to begin. This class is perfect. And this class, I'll provide you with a cooking video which I made specifically for this cost, which you can use to edit this video or you can use any videos that you have lying around in your house or maybe in your computer that you wanted to use for a very long time, but it's still haven't done anything to miss. This class will give you a step-by-step guide on how you create project, how you organize your footage, and what are some of the things that you do as a beginner? And we'll work on Video Effects, audio effects, and everything that requires you to make and polish your first video edit project inside of Premiere Pro. Let's jump into this class. I'll see you in the next one. 2. Class 01: Folder Structure: Welcome to your very first class on Premiere Pro. In this class we'll be talking about folder structure and why it is important to actually have an organized folder before you start editing or before you move any of your video assets, images, anything that you're working on into your editing software. Let's see what I mean by that. I'm using a Mac computer for those. Doesn't matter which computer using, doesn't matter which operating system you're using as long as you have folders on your computer, it'll work. I work off of an external drive, which I have here to a two terabyte drive. And the good thing about these drives is I can plug in play. I can take it out of my computer and take it somewhere else with me and start working on a different computer if I want. Now, in this class, I want to talk about the importance of folder structure here you can actually see that I have a folder by the name of PR pro class. Now you can create this or you can download this from the project section of this class. You should be able to actually see all the assets that I'm using and all the folders that I've created for you. So let's begin here. Let's click on this and see what we have inside. Anytime you're working on your Premiere project or any video project, you will definitely have assets. Assets may include videos, audio, images, any kind of background music that you're using or their dialogues. If you're working on a film, documentary, voice-over narration, everything will go into this asset folder. And this assets folder will be under your main folder. So by in essence, you can actually take this folder, put it on Google hard drive, and shared with other people and other editors around the world will be able to download this and start working on these assets or the projects that you are going to work on. Let's click on this asset folder and see what we have inside Assets folder for this class, I'll be using a couple of videos and audio. You can have multiple sub folders here. Sometimes you can, you can, you may have, let's say, let's create a new folder and name this folder images. Now, I can actually start working on this project and start importing images. There will be a lot of different projects as you grow as an editor, you will be working with lots of different kinds of media into your project. Let's click on videos and see what we have now in this video asset folder, I have iPhone videos that I shot with my iPhone that I'm going to use for the entire rest of the class that we're going to work on. Now, I can also add other folders. For example, I want to add footage from my GoPro video. This can be GoPro depending on what you're using. Really within videos, I tried to keep it organized with the name of cameras that I've actually used. So if I'm using a wool Pro, maybe a Sony camera or any other camera. I tried to create projects and I always create folders and put all the assets within those folders. That way it helps me keep organized and it's always good to have. So within iPhone videos, I do have my videos that I'll be using. So for this class, I'll be using a cooking class or cooking video that I've actually shot. Just for the sake of purpose of this class. I'm making a chocolate cake and I'll be going through how we can actually use these videos by the end of this class, you should have an introduction bit or a complete a cooking video project that you will be using these videos and these videos are again available. And what I've done is I've actually gone through each and every video and named this video based on what that video is all about. Remember, I'm organizing my class. I'm organizing my videos before I even start, start editing my project. So this is an important bit for your, for your, any of your future project. Since we're doing this as a basic beginner course of Premiere Pro, I want you to know that this is a major part of any editing process that you'll be doing, doesn't matter. You're a beginner or you an intermediate or a very advanced working on Hollywood films. This should be something that you should be incorporating into your workflow. Next option that I want to share here is the project files. Project file is a second folder that I work on. Now, project files are basically anything that you're working on. You take all the footage that you have, let's say your images, your videos, and you put it inside your editing software, you create project files. And that file is similar to, let's say an MP3 file or WAV file dot mp3 dot wave, or any other file format that you have. Every operating or every software will have their own project file. In our next class, we will discuss how to create project files and what is the importance of those Project 5. But I like to keep all the project files within this folder. So PR is for Premiere Pro and the future project files that I'm going to create will be inside this. So I'll create one for project files, an option. The next bullet that I have is exports. Now, I usually keep BRAF carts and final tariff carts are basically the ones that say you're working with your client or maybe you want to get an opinion or you get a second eye on on what you've been doing. You don't need to complete the entire thing and then show it to people and then redo that thing again. Let's say you created the first five minutes of your documentary. You want to render that out, export that out. You can create that in the rough carts and you can have multiple rough curves and just to see your progress and how things are moving along. The next one is final. This is a final project or final export that we'll be doing. You always put it here. Sometimes I have like maybe two or three final projects depending on the review process that I go through with my clients or on or myself. I mean, maybe I saw this video and I feel really good The next morning I wake up and, and wash the final project or final export again. And then it turns out that I'm not happy with it. Maybe I wanna do it again, so then it will have. So that way it helps me organize my, my final projects and see how I have progressed in this one project or in general, how I progress as an editor, what I want you to take away from this first-class is the organization of these folders is very important to any editors workflow. This process will definitely come into play and you should be organizing your footage even before you start editing. This is where project will start taking shape. In our next class, we'll create our Premier Pro project file and understand what they are all about. I'll see you in the next one. 3. Class 02: Create your first Premier Pro Project file: Our previous class, we discussed the folder structure in this class we'll work on our first project file. This project file is going to determine how you work inside of Premiere Pro. First thing we're going to do is I want to show you my folder that I made. I'm going to go keep going back to this folder because this is really important. Everything will happen inside of this folder. Now within this folder, Premiere Pro class, let me just rename this folder for now. Let's call it cooking video for Premiere. Let's say PR problem. This is what I'm going to name my folder. This is the mean for that I'm working on. You can go ahead and rename this to anything you want. The goal here is to name the folder with what you want, what the project has, so we have fits your V log in Dubai or maybe you went to New York and can do rename this to that and you want to use those videos. Let's see what we have inside of this. The first thing that I showed you was was assets and the second thing was project files. Now, within project files, I had a sub-folder called PR, which is for Premiere Pro. Here, there's nothing there. I'm going to open Premiere Pro the very first time. Let's say, assuming that this is the first time I'm actually working on this project and I want to start on Premiere Pro. Let's see how it works depending on which version of Premiere per year using I'm using a 2021 Premiere Pro version. Now here I have a couple of projects that I've worked on before. But what we're gonna do is we are going to create a brand new project. What I want you to do is I want to click on New Project here. And you will be greeted with this. Once we are here, it's asking us to name our project. I can name this project, let's say cooking. This is remember the name of the folder that I'm working on cooking video for PR pro. You can name this anything, guys. I mean, depending on how you name your projects or what you're doing. But they will be, as you grow as an editor, they will be a way that you'll start naming these projects because you will be working with multiple projects within one video or within one. That's a document that you're working on. Maybe you're working on a trailer, so you have a separate project file for that. If you're working on a particular scene, you will create a separate project file for that. I mean, depending on how you work, you may want to have different project files, but, but this is just, just for the basic. We're just going to go and name our project here. And then it's going to ask us, where do I want to store this project? Where do I want to save this price? Remember, we created our folders here. I want to actually save this on that. Otherwise Premiere Pro, if you don't do that, Premiere Pro is going to save this in a default location. Maybe you want there, maybe you don't want, I don't want that. I want to keep it in one place. Who says click on browse for that folder that I have. And we're gonna go into cooking video for Premiere Pro. Remember I have project files and I have Premier Pro and I'm going to save it here. I'm going to just choose this. And now you can actually see that it has been saved here. All I need to do is I don't need to change anything else. This does not matter for you right now. It's very tricky stuff that you should not be bothered with as long as you have created your project file. It's amazing. Let's click on Okay. Once you click on, Okay, this is what you'll see. This is the interface of Premiere Pro congratulation. You just enter the software of Premiere Pro. And this is where all the magic happens. All the big blockbuster movies that you've actually seen which were edited on Premiere. There are a lot of them Netflix shows, a lot of TV shows, everything that you actually watched. Chances are, it was edited right here, just like this in front of you. This is what people have that. But let's close this for a while and go back to our main folder that we have here, the cooking videos. I'm going to go into my cooking video folder which you created project files. And within PR now you can see that there is a project file that we see in project files are important. Let's click on this project file and you can see that the size of this project file is only six KV. It's very tiny, it's small. It's, it's nothing. You can just WhatsApp it to someone who may be. You can send it over a messenger. That is what we have. What project files are, more work you start doing within your Premiere Pro software, the more videos you start loading, more effects you add to your videos and all the other kind of stuff, all the magic that you will deal with your videos, this project file size is going to increase and what's increases, it will be difficult for you to send over. And there are lots of different ways that you can work with. You don't need to worry about that. But what you need to understand is that this project file is basically one way of Premiere Pro software. Communicating with your computer or the operating system that you are actually using, doesn't matter. Windows or Mac OS. It is essentially letting Premiere Pro know where those videos are stored, what sort of effects you've added on your videos and what you have done with how, what is the length of the video, everything, all the information about your film or documentary or the YouTube video that you're working on is stored within this project file. And if you get rid of this project, this project file goes away. There's nothing you can do it. So it's always good to actually keep backup. Premiere Pro has this really amazing auto backup feature that I'm going to show you that you need to enable in order for Premiere Pro to do automatic backups every few minutes so that you don't lose most of your work. But again, if you lose all of that work, all of the project file, if this folder is deleted by someone and you work on a three or four hours shoot and you've worked for like maybe a week or two week. You've created all your beautiful edits, it's gone. You can't do anything to, you need to make sure that you are taking care of this. That's open Premiere Pro again, and I want you to do the very first thing that I always do when I start a new project. You have to do it once. If you're using Premier Pro, then Premier Pro takes care of I'm in Premier Pro. Like I said, I'm using Mac OS. On Mac OS, what I want you to do is I want you to go into this option premier pro and click on Preferences and then autosave. If you're using Windows computer, you can click on File Menu and then the bottom you'll see preferences. And then once you are in preferences, I want you to click on autosave now here, because I've done this a lot number of times. Usually you will have 20 minutes or 30 minutes depending on what you have, automatically save every 20 minutes or 30 minutes you've been working on a project or even maybe you've added a lot of videos, you did a lot of things and you forgot to save. A lot of things can happen. Your computer can automatically switch off. Maybe your software crashes, which Premier Pro does sometimes. And a lot of times maybe there's a power, electricity trip or something happened and God knows what happens. You have not saved your work. All the work that you've done is gone because editing is a very intuitive process, you need to make sure that most of your work is saved on a timely basis. What I like to do is I like to keep it at five minutes or every five minutes. Premiere Pro is automatically going to save this and this backup will be saved in the location where my project files are. So once you're done with this, let's close this. This is the area, this is the place where your automatic backups will be saved, and this is where Premier Pro is automatically saving it every five minutes. You can also save it by yourself, but it's good that Premiere Pro is doing that in the background because everything is a very intuitive process. You are working on a lot of things. You get into the floor, you get into the zone, and then you actually forget about a lot of different things and then boom, everything is gone. So this is something that will help you save a lot of time and a lot of hassle. If I do this, just, just go ahead and do this in our next class, we'll talk about Premiere Pro interface and how that interfaces structure what you can do inside of that interface. 4. Class 03: Premiere Pro Interface: In our previous class, we learned about the project files of Premiere Pro. In this class we'll go into Premier Pro's interface. I'm going to continue from my previous class here and open the project file that we created. And this is basically what I will see once the project file opens up. Let me just do that one more time. Let me close this and go to my project file. Here. Remember, I'm in the folder cooking video for PR pro. I'm gonna go into project files, PR, and you can say the autosave is automatically meet there for me, it will be done automatically for you so you don't need to worry about it. Let's just double-click on this and load the software. When you open Premiere Pro for the very first time, this is how you will be greeted with the bare minimum interface. Now, you can do a lot of things to this interface. This is a modular interface. You can click on any of these sections and you'll see that these sections will be activated. And you will know that by this blue border around it, I can click here, I can click here, and I can click here. There are a few things that you can do within this Premiere Pro interface. Like I can move this in this location, make room for this particular window. I can move back there or maybe if I want space at the bottom, I can always move it here and there. You can also drag and drop one of these sections in a different place. For example, this section is called the timeline. I can move it and drag it all the way here so you can see that I am being told that this blue area that is highlighted right now, I can dock this timeline panel in this location. Let's see what happens when I leave my mouse button. When I do that, you can see that the timeline has been moved up and I'm able to actually work freely in other areas so I can actually increase the space. So you are able to actually make these changes very quickly and efficiently. And sometimes when you were doing this, maybe by mistake, you move some section in a different place, you want to get back to where you were. You can always go to windows here on your bar and click on workspaces and reset to saved layout. Once you click on that, it'll go back to the default layout that this thing had. There are also other layouts that are made by Premiere Pro by default, just to help you understand what they are, I have this bar here on top or this panel on top that have all these different workspaces. We call them workspaces. I can also click on Windows, click on workspaces, and click on assembly, which is a different workspace. And click on that, you can see the interface changes. I can also click it here, click on Edit and you can see we go back to that place, which was the interface or the workspace I was working on. All these interfaces are there to serve a purpose. You may be doing a specific task in your filmmaking process. You may want to use this or you can create your own interface. For example, if I go back to editing here, and if this panel or this bar is not available for you, you can click on Windows and scroll all the way down and click on workspaces. And it will give you this toolbar available. Alright, Let's say I want to create my own workspace 18 example before I can drag this timeline and put it right here. And once I do that, I haven't made changes and I have made some space. And let's say this is something that I want. I can always go to Windows, click on Workspace, and save as new workspace. And this time I'm going to name this new work space two. And click on, Okay, now you can see in this panel, I already have new workspace to, I made workspace before. This is the new workspace, I can go to editing. So you can create one for yourself and you can use that. And another thing that you are able to actually do is you are able to close these panels if you want them. For example, I don't want this timeline panel anymore, or maybe I want to delete this workspace. So there's always this bar icon here or the burger icon on the three dots. You can click on this. You can see if you can go back to the same layout or you can edit workspace here. And over here you'll see all the workspaces that are available. Go to your desired workspace, click on it and click Delete. It will delete that workspace from this area. Now you don't see that anymore. We are going to work on editing, so make sure you are on editing workspace. If you have made any changes within your editing workspace, I'll recommend you to go to Workspaces and reset to saved layout. Once you do that, we'll go back to our saved layout. So that is how you can manipulate this particular environment. Let's move forward and see what else do we have in Premiere Pro? All right, the other thing that I want you to pay attention to is that within each panel we have different tabs. Now you see media browser library's info effects, markers, and history. And let's talk about the project tab that we have in this project bin. Now, this is the same project that I'm working on that we created cooking video for PR pro, and this does not have any media in it. So Premiere Pro is asking me, bro, you started this, you need to put some media into this. There are lots of different ways, but let me just go to my folder that I have. Remember this cooking video for PR pro, I'm going to go into assets and click on Video, iPhone videos. And this time I'm going to take this, and it'll just take this and drag it into my Premier Pro project bin where the media is. I'm just going to leave it. Once I leave it, it will appear. So all the videos, everything that you're working on will be populated in this area. So I can look at videos, I can shoot videos and keep dragging them here. And that's how I populate this media bin that I have, the project bin. So all the videos will be here. Now in order for me to, I can drag multiple videos, right? I can maybe take this video and drag it here. And it will appear here. And I have two videos. But in order for me to know what's inside this video, just the name is not important. I need to view, I need to preview this video also. So for preview purposes we have this panel here, which is our source tab. This is directly linked to what you have in your media bin. So I can double-click on the intro video and you can see that it will appear in my source tab or source panel or source monitor. You may want to go, let's call it source monitor because that's what it's called. Now in my source monitor, I can preview individual clips that I'm going to work on. So you can see that this video I'm able to actually use my mouse press, scrub this video. I can press play, stop it, and then I can move it from one place to another place. This is where I preview my videos even before I start making any changes to them. These are this is the panel that will be used first to make or to select footage within this, maybe you're working on an hour long footage and you view it in your source panel. And this force panel will tell you, this is the footage that I'm interested in. Maybe I should use only this voltage source panel will give you that kind of preview. Moving from our project bin, let's look at our timeline. Now remember this is the time. Now we're moving here and there. This is that timeline. So timeline basically is for your videos or anything that you're working on. Timeline is where your film and your documentary will be stitch. We will take multiple videos, stitch them together. This is where the video will happen. So I can just move this video or any video and drag and drop it here onto my timeline. And you can see my timeline has now a video and an audio lane that I can work on. You can see I'm using the same video, but here the difference is I'm able to view this preview, but I'm also able to actually see the wave form and different way of presentation. But remember, This is the place where all your videos will be stitched together. I can take this sixth video, step 3 video. I can bring it here and I can always move it here and then womb, I can go to the next video. So this is how most of the films are made. This is how every film that you've actually seen that was shot and edited in a digital format, was actually done like this. This is how a film begins. This is how our videos are all going to begin. So the timeline preview is right here and we call this program monitor. So anything that you're doing on your timeline, all the stitching that happens, everything that happens will be appearing on your talent, will not be appearing on your source monitor. Now, beside timeline, in-between this panel and this panel timeline panel, we have what we call our toolbar now Tool what I have right now is a Select Tool. I can select my four-day jag and move it here and there. I can move it here and there, move it up and down. This is what the select tool will do. Another tool that we will be using all the time is our razor tool. So if I hover my mouse over it, you will see razor tool and, but you will also see in bracket C. So C is a shortcut for this razor tool is used to make some cuts here. So I can make a cut here. It's that simple. I can make a cut here. I can make cut anywhere I want. And then I can use the select tool, move up and down, or move our thinking in a different place. So you can see that this is how a lot of effects that you've actually seen, a lot of movies that you've seen where a non-linear timeline, they are able to actually use something like this to work on. All right, We're going forward. What else do we have? We have a text tool, so I can basically click on this tool, click on my program monitor, not on my source monitor, in my program monitor, these tools are going to work for program monitor only. I can click here and I can say Hello world. Once I do that, I can click on Select and then move this footage. Now you can see you on my video is being played. By the way, to play and pause. The shortcut is the spacebar. It's either you highlight this panel. What you will see that it's blue border, press space bar. It will start press Spacebar, it'll calm down. You can highlight this one. It will activate the timeline. You can press Play. And this is the scrubber that will give you an indication of what time, at what time are we in our film or in our timeline. Beside our timeline is the audio monitor that you see here. This will help you monitor them. The audio or the strength of the audio and whether or not your audio is good, you'll be able to determine that there's a lot of other things, but this is the basic thing that I can tell you right now. Other than that in our project panel or in this panel, we have another tab which I discussed, which is media browser. Now Media Browser is basically allowing you to browse your computer from within Premiere Pro. And you can go to the folders where your assets are and you can basically start dragging. You can import assets from there depending on what sort of footage you're working on, what sort of formats. Maybe once you get an advanced user, you will understand what this is all about. What now for now for the basic class, you should understand that you are able to actually import using media browser. You can browse your computer hard drive. The other option that I want to discuss important one is info. Now this is an info about your movie, about your project and everything will be appearing here. I don't look at it that much. You have Effects. Now these are effects that you'll be using on your videos and they are very easy. For example, I can click here and I can search for effect, let's say transition. Maybe I did not transition. So I have, let's say audio transition. Maybe I'm looking for Video Transition and then cross dissolve. Let's take this and put it somewhere here on our video and use this option. You see this bar here to zoom in a little bit. And now you can see that I have added an effect which is here. Now you can see as my video moves. Okay, I think it's the same video, so I may need to use two separate videos. I'm sorry. That's okay. It'll be really nice here. These are two different videos I want to have that effect appear in this area. Let's see what we have. We'll talk about it frankly, but this is just for this example, you can see I'm dissolving into that other video. It's very simple. That's how most of the effects are done. The other option that we have beside effecting this area is called markers. When I click on Mark, as you can see that this place is empty, markers are a very useful way. Let's say for example, I am on my timeline. I click here. I click, I select the footage that I have. Let me just zoom out. I select the footage that I have and press M. Once I press M, market will be put in this place and I can create some reminders for myself, work on this footage. Or I can type, give this to marry for color. All right. So I can create these markers as I'm working on my timeline, I can set reminders tomorrow I come back to this edit. I can always go back and said these reminders for myself. History is what you have done on your entire project. I don't look at it that much, but it may be very useful in certain kinds of projects. All right, moving forward, let's look at this panel here. We have the source monitor. Besides source monitor, we have Effects Control. Now, when I click on Effects Control, this is the area where you will be managing all the effects that you add to your individual clips on your timeline, on your timeline, remember, so I can click on this clip and you can see that there are some things that we are able to change who have got scale and position. So you can see, I have select this orange here, and I can use Zoom and scale in and scale out. That is what you will be able to do. So this is where you can manipulate the effects on these videos and anything that you put, you will be able to actually make changes. Besides that, we have audio mixer. So you are able to actually make changes to audio. Are you adding effects or things like that? You will be able to do that to these audio channels. You can see that we have multiple audio channels like 123, a1, a2, a3, V1, V2, V3. So V is for video, audio is for audio. So you can actually move this here, two, audio channel three. And now you can see that this is audio channel 3. We shouldn't be able to actually see that if I move it back up, it should be able to see that it's audio channel 1. So you are able to do that. Other than that, we have metadata. Now this metadata is basically about your video. How big your video is, what's the land, What's the name where the location, frame, size, and everything. All that information is available in this area. In our next class, we will import footage into our Premier Pro project and learn what are different ways of importing footage inside of Premiere Pro. I'll see you in the next one. 5. Class 04: Import Your Footage: In our previous class, we learned about Premiere Pro interface. In this class, I'll be discussing how to import footage in your Premiere Pro project. There are a number of ways. Let's see what we have. I'm going to continue from where we left in our previous class. You can see that I have populated this timeline here. This was a video that I dragged and dropped. But let's see what we get when I actually select all of this and press the delete option here. Or I can press Delete or Backspace on my keyboard. Let's do that. Once I do that, you can see that everything has gone back to the way it was when we first started this project. Let's learn how, what are different ways of importing items. The first thing I wanna do is I want to double-click here important media, or double-click anywhere here. And it'll take you to the browser on your computer. Now you can go to the place where you have downloaded this project folder and find cooking video for PR pro, click on assets, video, iPhone videos, and just select all of these videos that we have and click on Import. Once you do that, Premiere Pro is going to import all these files into our media bin. And this is how you can actually see. So you can click on individual files and start previewing them. Once you preview them, you can start dragging them to your timeline and start working on them. That's a very simple way of doing it. Next thing I wanna do is let's press Control a or command a if you're on Mac, control a if you're using Windows, press Delete or Backspace on your computer keyboards. Once we do that, I can go back to the folder where my videos were at a member here. This is the folder I did not open it from here. This is an individual for that that I opened on this side and click on assets, videos, iPhone videos, and select all the videos. Just like we did last time. I can just drag and drop them here. And once I do that, it will populate the entire thing for me. I do not want this, maybe I can just delete that. Let's right-click and click on Import. Once you do that, it will take you to your browser and you can go to your computer and select videos that you actually want to bring in. Maybe I want to only bring in this. And then you can actually see that you are able to import the footage in here. There are lots of different ways that you can import this Bourdage and other one is going to Media Browser. Let's say I have it on my external hard drive here. I can click on cooking videos or maybe here, maybe I want to open this or double-click on assets. Videos where my videos are iPhone videos. And here the difference here is that I can double-click on them and they will load up in my source monitor. So let's say I double-click on them and I'm able to, even before I bring footage into my Premier Pro project, I can preview the footage that I want and I can select all of those things that I actually so I can preview whatever. Okay, this is something I need. Maybe I can click here on this second video. Let me just do that. My computer is taking some time. I can preview this and then I can select like control and do multiple selects and only need these three videos. I can right-click on them and click on Import. And they will be imported into my timeline. And that is another way of importing your footage. This media browser import as is good once you become an advanced editor, you will be able to do a lot more things within the media browser. But this is just to tell you how you can actually import because you want to put videos on YouTube and other things. It's very quick, just drag and drop and do the thing also, depending on what sort of editing you're doing, what sort of project you're working on. You may have a different view, will built a different process. You will create your own process. You import footage into Premier Pro or any other software that you have. I want to select all that and press Delete. There is another way of bringing footage into your Premiere Pro and you can go back to your cooking video project. Click on assets. Video, we have audio and images. There are three folders that we actually built here. Now you need to, this is an important bit. Videos have subfolder called iPhone videos, which has assets. And GoPro video do not have any assets. Also have audio folder which has an asset, and I have images which does not have asset. Now, let's say we worked so hard on this. Let me just highlight all of these three Video folders and bring them here. What you'll see is that premier brought video and in-video. It brought iPhone video and also audio folder. And it retains the same structure the way we had it there, but it did not bring images. The reason we did not do that is because images folder was empty, so there's no need to actually bring that here, but you are able to actually create your own folders if you want, you can click on this new bin icon and create your own folder, let's say 03. The images, I mean, this is not something. Be it, do not worry if they're the folder is empty, you do not need to bring that, so that is not a problem, but this is something that maybe you had a couple of folders and you try to import it here, did not work there you are confused why it's not working. That's the reason it's not working. All right, and now that we have our footage here inside of this folder, Let's see what we can do within this project browser or project bin. Let's click on video and highlight this for that we have and drag it down. So you can see that there are so many videos that are available here. There is a small tip that I want to share with you. If you double-click on this iPhone videos like this. What you'll see is that it created a new tab just for that specific folder. Now, within this folder, I can always maybe where I could if I had like multiple folders, multiple assets working with, I can always go back here and select the photos that I want. But because it does not have any visual representation and always stuck with clicking on it and then viewing it in the source monitor. There is another way, however, what you can do is you can click on this and it'll change the preview. And you are always able to hover or scroll or scrub your mouse over it and see what footage is. But we'll be more helpful if you're if you're not using this footage that I have provided for you in this class. Using your own footage, it'll be very helpful if you actually have named for that video. It makes the work a lot more easier. It is it is too much work to go through hundreds of files and then naming them and then finding out what they are. But you've already done the work before that it just is very easy and very comfortable for us to work with. Again, you can always click here and you can drag this and put it anywhere. You actually want, maybe I want it here. So I can always preview footage here and then actually view it here. But maybe I don't want it there. Remember what we can do? We can go back to our Windows Workspaces and reset to save layout. When I do that, it is actually going to go back and he's going to remove that. But no worries, I can always double-click on it and move it to a place that I want. I can always drag it back to this area. You can see the top bar highlights and then it's always available for me to view in this, this area. Now I can go ahead and make previews. I can make, I can see what these videos are all about and make changes to them if I want. And then perhaps I can choose multiple videos and then drag all of them here into my timeline. So you can see that all these videos are working and all of these videos have been moved to our timeline. The important thing that you need to understand from this lesson is if you've In your work before you move your assets into Premier Pro project, then it's easier for you to sort your footage, view your footage, and know what is going on, IQ and add markers. You can do a lot of other things to set reminders or maybe set some points for yourself before you move your footage into the timeline. In our next class, we will create a sequence and start compiling footage onto our timeline and start working on our project. 6. Class 05: Let's Create a Sequence: In our previous class, we learned about importing footage insider Premier Pro. In this class, we will start populating the timeline and create a couple of sequences to begin our edit and want to continue from the last point where we actually left. So I've got my timeline here. We discussed a couple of thing, a couple of things that I want to recap. We do have our project bin where we get all our footage, all the assets that we'll be using. And we also have a timeline where we can actually make changes to our final footage. Now this timeline essentially is a sequence. This is what Premiere Pro knows that you're doing with your footage. Let's learn how we can create a sequence from scratch. I can get rid of this first or maybe I can click here and that sequence is gone. So now you can see timeline, no sequence. Now I want you to understand there are different ways of creating a sequent. The very first thing that we did in the beginning when we dragged footage from here all the way here, we created a sequence. So you can actually see the logo for our sequence is a little bit different. We have logo for our video file and our sequence. This is the logo that we get for our sequence. I can close this and actually click on my sequence. And you can see that my sequence is still intact or that is what all about. I can add multiple clips, do this by dragging my footage here. And I can always go ahead and cancel this, close this, and then restart. And I can see, you can see that this is a sequence that I'm working on. That is what I have. There are a lot of different ways what you can do with this sequence, but the sequence is essentially what you are working on. Everything that you work on your timeline, all that information. What sort of what is the length of your entire footage? What sort of effects you added. What our audio transitions, video transitions, what you're doing in your timeline will be compiled into a sequence. And sequence is what you export out as movie Premiere Pro. Let's see what are some other ways of creating a sequence and what are some different dimensions or different ways of using the sequence here in Premiere Pro. Let's see what we have. I'm just going to close this. And for the sake of this example, what I'm gonna do is I'm just going to leave it this way. And I will drag this. Let's create a folder here. Let's create a bin. First. I'm going to create a new bin and call this sequence. Alright? And what I'll do is remember this folder that we created. I'm going to change this view here. And maybe let me show you something else. I want to click here and then click on undocked panel. Once you undock it, you will be able to actually move it independently. Now what I want from here is I want the sequence. Remember, this is the logo, this is the icon for sequence. I'll grab it from here and put it all the way in my sequence folder. I can close this. I do not need it anymore. All right, so you can see that a named my sequence, the weight based on the video that I use to create a sequence. The first video there are dragged here, that is the name of my sequence. I can always rename the sequence. So this sequence is 1920 by 10. At that is the dimension of this sequence. This is how I will remember this particular sequence which is here. Now the aspect ratio for this particular sequence is 16 by nine, so that is what it is here. Don't worry if you don't know anything about it. Just remember it's 1920 by 1080 P video. That is what we are seeing here. Let's create a new sequence and learn how, what are different ways of creating new sequence. I can always right-click here and click on new item and click Sequence. And I'll be given this dialog box or this new sequence panel where I can actually start working on it. Here you can see that there are lots of different cameras that you can work with. Iri. You have ABC ASD photos, you have cannon. There are so many other four digits that you can work with. So depending on what camera you're using, the aspect ratios or everything is automatically by default set for you. So you can choose that particular sequence or you can just drag your video into your timeline and it will create a sequence based on your video dimensions or the video that you've actually started. It will just match that and create a sequence for you. But what I wanna do is I want to create a brand new sequence here with what I want. I want to create a sequence with, let's say, 25 frames per second. And I want to create a 10 ADP, which is exactly this sort of vertical dimension, the horizontal video that we actually see here that you see on YouTube or a lot of other platform of the video that you're watching is also horizontally shot. So let's click here. I will not change anything else, but I want to change the name of the sequence. Let's say we choose 1920 by 1080. This is 25 FPS, 25 frames per second. Let's create one. So now you can see I have created a new sequence here. I can also, I just don't need to create the sequence with the dimensions. I can name it anything I want. I can also, let's say name it. Cook intro. So maybe I can use this sequence for an intro so I can double-click on this sequence. The sequence is empty. I can also open multiple sequences here. You can actually see, let me click on an 10 ADP video is already here. So you can create multiple sequences, anything you want. You can actually create another way of creating a sequence is you can click on this new option here, new item, and click on sequence, and that will give you the same option you can create your sequence the way you want. Another option is to click on File New and sequence. You'll get the same dialogue box and you can choose. But the best thing is the YouTube and everything that you are actually going to upload this on the video that you are shooting or the purpose that you're learning this form would be somewhere about ten ADP and 25, 24 frames per second or 30 frames per second. That is something when you are shooting videos that will make a lot more sense. But as an editor, you should know about these things also, but that is something that is not required in this particular class. All I want you to do is to choose 10, ADP 25 and make your sequences. What I want now is I want to create a vertical video format. Now, I want to tell Premiere Pro that I want to export videos in vertical format like Tiktok or Instagram, IGTV video. Let's see if we can create a sequence for that. Let's create a new item here, sequence. And I'm going to choose the same thing here, but instead, I'm going to rename this to, let's say IGTV and real. And instead of clicking, okay, I'm gonna go to Settings here. And in settings you see the frame size, 1920 by 1080. I'm going to change this. So this is vertical 16 by 9. I'm going to change this to 1080 by 1920, nine by 16 IGTV real. And I'm going to click Okay, now I have put this in my sequence bin. Now I have created a sequence with dimensions which are same as a Tik, Tok or real that you put on IGTV and any footage that I've dragged into this, for example, I've dragged this footage. Premiere Pro is going to say that the video that you're putting has different dimensions then your sequence. Do you want to change the sequence, I think to the video or you want to change the video to sequence. So I need to create, keep existing settings. I'm just going to use that. And now you can see that I have bars on top and bottom. I can always click here. Go to my Effects Control. Remember we talked about scale and I can scale it up. And I can change the position of my video, maybe bring it a little bit down here. Yeah, that's, that's that's pretty much how you create an IGTV and all those videos are, all right, so now that we know what sequences are and how you can actually use them, I'm going to use this original sequence that we created and delete all these videos that I have, you can add footage into your sequence in a lot of different ways. The first way that I want to teach you is very simple. You already know it. I can just drag and drop footage here. Just like that. I can keep existing settings. I can drag and drop here, keep existing settings and things like that. So there you go. I'm just creating my timeline here. There are a lot of different ways you can manipulate this timeline that we discussed. You can always use this to zoom in and out. We also have these options here that will help you expand these video and audio options so you can always play with them also, these are some things that you can work on. But what I wanna do is I actually want to show you another way of adding foliage. Let's say I click on this and view my footage in my source monitor and I'm viewing my photos most of the time I'll be doing my footage here. So let's say I like this bit and I want to move it here. I can just click here and then drag all the way to my timeline and this footage will appear here. And another way of doing that would also mean, I can always remember we talked about that other folder. I can double-click on this iPhone video and it'll open up this in a different tab. Click on this option and now I have a visual representation of what I'm seeing. I can just click and drag it here if I want. I can also do multiple selections. I can drag them all the way here. These videos will appear in that particular form. Other thing that you can't actually do here is that there are two icons, video and audio. So when you hover your mouse over this, it says drag video only. For example, I only want the video a bit from here, but not the audio. I can click here and drag it all the way here. And you can see that I've only included video from this particular source monitor and not the audio. But if I want the audio, I can drag it. I can click on the audio option or maybe the video. You can see that changing the formats if I click on this, but most of the time it's on video, I can always drag this and add it here so you can see that I can add either audio or video from this. I am not able to I will not be able to do that. If I were to drag all these items here, I'll be dragging mostly video and audio. So it's always good to add items from your source monitor into your timeline or into your sequences. In our next class, we'll learn how to create in and out points in our source monitor, which is going to further enhance our workflow inside of Premiere Pro, I'll see you in the next one. 7. Class 06: Learn about Marking In-points and Out-points: In our previous class, we worked on sequences, we created a couple of them and then imported footage into our timeline and started working on. In this lesson, we'll talk about marking endpoints and out points to further enhance your workflow. All right, and this is what I have. You can see that I have built those other three sequences. It's a very easy way to actually get rid of them. You can click here and close the panel if you want. Or maybe you can click on this cross here and it'll close this thing. So that is, this is my sequence that we actually built before. I'm just going to, to select all of this and click Cancel. I want to give you an example here on how we can enhance our workflows or how we actually work inside of Premiere Pro. All right, let me just choose something here. I'm going to look here for the intro bit. This is a search section. I named my foot it so shouldn't be able to find. Yes, there you go. That's the intro movie that I have. Okay. I'm going to show you what I mean by that. There are a number of ways we discussed when we brought footage into our timeline or inside of Premier Pro's sequence, which here is 1920 by 1080. I can just drag this entire thing in bringing right here. Then once I have it here, I can maybe zoom in a little bit and let me just play this footage for you. For this. So you saw that I spoke to my camera man and advise the camera men are what sort of composition I'm looking for. So this is a bit that I don't want and in order for me to actually go through this entire footage here and then look for the things that I don't want. I constantly have to press the razor tool. We can see here is we'll see make changes. I make cuts in places where I don't want it like. So for example, I want to have a cut here and then choose my select tool, press here and then delete. And now I have to move this footage here one by one and then make these adjustments. This is a long process of tedious process. You do not want to do that by creating in and out points inside of your source monitor, you can reduce this work. Let me show you how it's done. I'll just leave this here for now and show you other things we can do. For example, let's just choose this footage and let's play this. I'm going to press Space-bar or is this all right? This is where I want to begin, maybe a little bit here. Okay? Maybe a little bit here. Let me just create an endpoint. Now, the shortcut here is I can press I, or I can press this bracket icon here that will create an endpoint for me. Now this is where I'm telling Premiere Pro inside of this entire footage, which is starting from here all the way here. I'm interested in footage that begins from this particular market. Let's see what we have to make our round again. This is the last full Skillshare I just wanted to share. This is true. While we can do a lot of people having me. Now you can see that I want to actually make our rounded class for sure, okay, I only want this footage until here. This is the bit that I'm interested in. I can create an outline by pressing 0 on my keyboard or pressing this marker out point shortcut that I have. Okay, now what I can do is what we learned in our previous classes. I can immediately drag this here and you can see that I have only exported or I've only brought that small bit that I'm interested in from this timeline. So it's a very good way of going through your sequences, are going through your footage inside of source monitor and selecting what you are interested in bringing that in. For example, there are some other footages that I have. Let's say there's one called ingredient. That is what I have here. So you can see that there is this bit, Let's play this. You'll lead 230 grams. So let's say I begin from here and then create an endpoint. You don't have to be specific because once you bring the footage here, then you can do a lot more specific changes are a lot more specific cuts inside of, inside your timeline. But for now, let's just choose. It will lead to 130 grams of water. All right. This is moving, so I'm just going to perhaps end here and create an out point. And then I will drag this item in this area. Let's see what we have. I'm going to drag forward. Okay, here. On Windows. I want to begin. Here. We go. Talk with you 120 ground and maybe I want to start here. €120 of a job that you are using this in case you're wondering this is all right, so I'm going to just make an out point here and drag this footage here. Now you can see that I'm able to actually put them side-by-side. And other tip I want to share here is let me just zoom in a little bit here, this move, this icon. Yeah, there you go. So what you see here is when I move footage right next to each other, this footage snaps automatically. The reason it does that is because I have enabled my snap in Timeline option. So once I disabled this, the footage will not snap. It will just overwrite the previous or anything that is in its way, in its path. I always like to keep this snap option on because one I'm moving footage, it just automatically snaps to the edges of the previous what is in the timeline, which makes my life a little bit easier. I don't want to manually move everything. So that is a Snap icon or snap option that we have here. Let me just do a reset here and there you go. And it also snaps to the playhead. So let's say my playhead here, I want this footage to actually end here. I can do it very nicely. It will automatically snap right before like a magnetic thing. You can see that all the footage that I've actually shot is about five minutes long and I've introduced all the ingredients. So what I can do is I can essentially go through this source monitor and make endpoints and outpoint and dragging those things into my timeline and make my life a little bit easier instead of just putting everything on the timeline and then using the razor tool and doing that. You can do that also it is possible, but that is not a very efficient workflow. And other thing that you need to look into is remember we created that been here iPhone videos. And let me just change this to thumbnail view and increase the size here. And I can also use this option if you increase the size of my thumbnail. So let's say this is what I actually want and I have this ingredient bit that I have available here. I have made and in and out point selection here, markers here. And you can see that it has been selected in this area with a blue icon, I can always make other changes. For example, this I have here, so let me just select this. Click on space. It'll start playing. I can also press I here and press O, and that is where I created the endpoints and out points. So that is another way of looking at multiple items. And then you can create that. I can double-click on this. And you can see that this is where I created my endpoints and out points. And I can easily drag this all the way here and then make my adjustments. So this is how when you're going through your footage, maybe you're making a vlog or maybe you're working on a film or documentary, you're reviewing your photos. These are some of the best ways of maximizing the tools that we have inside of Premier Pro. And you can use them in a, in a number of ways and make your life a little bit easier. In our next class, we will discuss how we can create sub clips out of these larger or longer clips, which is going to further enhance our workflow. I'll see you in the next one. 8. Class 07: Subclips to enhance our workflow: In our previous class, we learned about marking endpoints and out points on our footage. In this class, we'll learn about sub clips, how we can create small, shorter clips out of a longer clip that we are working on. Let's see what we have. Alright. What I mean by sub clips is let me just get rid of this entire timeline that I have. I'm also going to reduce the size here. So it's easier for us to view this. Okay, I think this should be, this should be okay. I mean, I just do that. I'm going to select all of this and get rid of it. And I'm going to go back to my project bin here, or I can get a view of everything that I have and I'm going to cancel search options. So that is going to bring this entire thing for me. All right, What I wanna do right now is I'll create, let's just create a bin inside of videos. I'm click, I'm going to click on videos and creative been here, just going to name it sub clips. All right, let's just search for ingredients again. Now this is a clip that I know has a lot of different items, a lot of different things that I want. So in order for me to actually get everything here, for example, this is the bit where I'm talking about Joplin. I'll create an in point and out point and then drag it all the way here. Then perhaps I will look for another ingredient optional, which is somewhere around here. I'm going to just look for the eggs, okay? Okay, and then create an endpoint and then talk about OK, Eggs, create an outline, and then bring them here. You can see that there's work that is good. I have to do this. You are doing editing work. This is something that you can't, but there is another way to work with it. Sometimes when you're working on a document or anything that you are working on, you will be reviewing your footage. The first step that you need to do wreck I discussed in a very first-class is review your footage and see what you have. Now. Sometimes you do it outside, sometimes you do it inside of Premier Pro. But if you're doing it inside of Premiere Pro, you have the option to create a sub clips, ideas or clips that you think you may want to use it as B-roll footage or some other footage. Maybe you think that I'm gonna park this, put it somewhere here because every time ONE look for that footage, I have to view this all the way till the end and then select the photos that I'm actually looking for and then reuse that here by creating endpoints like employments and then marking out points and then dragging them here. So you have to do that all the time. So in order for you to, not too that save yourself some time, be more efficient and effective weekend use sub clips. Now I'm going to show you how sub clips work. Let's say I am making this. Let's just, let's just create some clips from this because later on I'm going to actually use it. Now first thing I'm gonna do is I'm going to play this. You'll need to 130 grams of water. All right? But let's say I want to begin from here. We want to create an endpoint. You will need to 130 grams of water. And I'm going to create an out point. Instead of dragging this all the way here, what I can do is I can actually make some sub clips which we are going to discuss now. Okay? The way to make subgroup is highlight this area and go to your clips and make sub clip. There will be a shortcut option for you to actually view, which is for my Mac computer or Apple computer, it's the Command Plus you, if you're using Windows, it's Control plus u. You can press this and it's going to ask you for an option, which is, it's gonna give you the name of the original clip that you have, which is ingredients are MOV. So what we can do here is I can actually name this butter. All right, and then click on, Okay. Now you can see I have created a sub clip here. Now I can do the same thing again. Let's say I highlight this and I'm going to go into my clip and make us up clip. And this time I'm going to check this option, restrict trims to sub clip boundaries. Let's just do that and call and rename this to butter too. And you can see I've made two options available here. Let's discuss what this restrict to the boundary means. I'm going to bring the first one where I did not check the restrict to boundary. I'm going to just zoom in a little bit and show you what I mean by that. Okay? So you can see that this is me doing. All right. Now you can see this. I'm able to actually extend it all the way I want because this clip is much longer than what we have here, which is three or four seconds is much longer than that. So I can always extend it the way I want. I can decrease the size, I can extend the size. So if you do not check that particular option, you will be able to extend it. But if I take the same clip, which is butter to where we actually use restrict to clip boundaries. You can see that there are a couple of triangles that is telling us that this clip cannot be extended. I'm not able to extend this clip anymore. It will always be the same size as we restrict it. I can always reduce the size of these clips if I want a and C that. All right, so this is a very good way of actually managing your clips. Let's just make a few others and see what we get. I'm going to take the next one which is here. I think this is where it should be. I'm going to create an endpoint here. Press 120 grams of a job that you want, using this in case you're wondering, all right, this is what I'm going to need. I can go to my clip and make us up clip. And another way of actually creating this is if you're using a Windows computer, you need to press Control on your keyboard. If you're using Mac, then it's Command on your keyboard. Press that and drag this clip, just like you would put them here. Instead of taking it there, you bring it to your sub clip, option. Release n is going to ask you to rename this sub clip. Now, this will be the chocolate, chocolate chips. And I'm going to restrict this to the boundary. Let's go for another one. You use for. These are normal. Okay? I think I want to make it here. You should be using foreign aid. So these are normal. If you want to use organic, whatever you want to use, what you need for x. All right, so this is where I want to do it. I'm going to click here again, press Command or Control. If you're using Windows and drag it all the way here. And I'm going to name this eggs. All right, Let's go forward. Will go. For 100 grams of sugar. You use. Injury one, I'll just do maybe I want to do it here. Okay. All right. I'm going to do that again. The same process happens here. I'm going to just add the sugar. Now that I've made a couple of these things, I'm going to just double-click on my sub clip folder and it's going to open it here. Now here I know that I have ingredients up clips, so maybe I want to rename this so I can go back here. And let's just rename this sub clips to ingredients. All right. Now, you can see that how this is very effective when you're working in a longer documentary project or firms or anything else. This is a cooking video. I made this because cooking videos as a lot of different things that you need to talk about, a lot of different shots, a lot of different angles, and it's a very good example to actually use this, use it as a lesson for this particular class. Now, when I click on this ingredient, subclavian can see pops up here. I can always click on the thumbnail view. And now you can see all I'm seeing is the butter, butter too, chocolate eggs. So it makes my life a lot easier when I create sub clips out of my, out of my longer clips are logic clips. And now this ingredient clips, we're short on purpose for this particular sub clip lesson so that I can create some subtypes and show you how effective this process can be in your editing workflow. In our next class, we'll bring, we'll start bringing these items into our timeline and start working on our edit. I'll see you in the next one. 9. Class 08: Editing Timeline Part 1: In our previous class, we learned about sub clips and how they can significantly increase your workflow. In this class, we'll bring the clips into our timeline and start working on it. We're going to start off here on my timeline. I have moved couple of clips from my iPhone videos, just random clips, put them here and I'm going to start working on now. But before I do that, I just want to discuss a few things. What are the things that we can actually do on our timeline? The very first thing I want to talk about is the scroll, right? We can actually scroll across our timeline. You can see that I'm able to increase and decrease the size of my clips here or the timeline. So I'll be able to have a larger timeline then you might as well go here because then you can actually see a lot of footage that you have here. The other thing that we can do is we can expand the size of these tracks. We have audio, video tracks and audio tracks. You can see V1, V2, V3, V4, a2, a3. How I can do that is by using this tool here, I always like to see my audio visual reference so I can see the waveforms of my clips so that it's easier for me to actually edit that way. So I'm always, I always expand the audio tracks here. Next thing, you can always bring them back or you can double-click in this area and then they'll go back to its original size. You can do the same thing with your video tracks. Double-click here, double-click, double-click, double-click, double-click, double-click. And you can see that they go back to the standard or the default size that Premiere Pro chooses for you. Another thing that you can actually do is if you're using Windows computer, you can press Alt on your keyboard and use your mouse, scroll wheel up and down, scroll it up or down. And you can actually see that you are able to zoom in and out if you're using a Mac computer, it's Option plus your magic mouse. Drag up and down because I'm using a surface or it's drag up and down, you can do it like that. So you can see that I'm able to achieve the same effect here. You can also bring your cursor to this area and you are able to actually expand and collapse these tracks if you want to. It's a very easy and fast way. You can always use your keyboard modifier, Alt on Windows, Option on Mac. And other thing you can do is you see where my cursor is. If I use those keyboard modifier, as you can see that my cursor will zoom in area where my my cursor is. So the software will zoom in areas where my cursor is. That is another thing. Let's talk a little bit about some other keys that we have on some of the tools that we have. The other tool that I use is the Razor Tool which shortcut a C. So I can press C on my keyboard and you can see the icon changes. I can press V and then it'll go back to Select. So most of the time you're just cutting, cutting and then pressing V and then moving photos. You can see I can move footage to a different tracks or different views and then I can just drag it all the way here, maybe somewhere here in the middle. And then you can see that I'm able to actually make, this is, this is how mostly the editing and stuff, stuff works. This is what you're supposed to do. You first compile your footage, go through your footage and then bring it to your timeline and then start working on your footage leg video transition, audio transition. And then you add some texts layers to it and then you're pretty much done. That's, that's the whole process of whatever videos that you are actually working on. All right, next thing I want to talk about is there are some other tools that we will explore. These other tools that are available as we start progressing with our editing of this particular cooking video, we will use these other tools and I'll explain what those tools are all about. But for now what I wanna do is I actually want to zoom in a little bit like this. And maybe I want to show you my audio track. Also. Maybe zoom in a little bit more. What I have here is I have a tool here that I use, which, which, which you will be using most of the time. That is my edit to see my cursor. If I bring my cursor next to the boundary or the age of my clip or any claim. We can see this is the end of this clip and you can see the cursor or the pointer changed from this to my edit tool. Now this is a very simple tool. I can, once I get close to the edge of any clip, I can press this and drag it all the way here. And you can see that I made edit without using the blade tool, without using the razor tool that we have here. I can always bring it back here, Control zed. And you can see again, I can do that. And it would have been to like to say put a blade cut here or razor can't hear, press V select and then get rid of this. And that would have been a much faster way. Let's see what are some other ways of doing this. But I want you to notice one thing. Once I get close to this and make this change, you can see that I made a gap between this clip and this clip. This cap did not exist, so I was able to actually move from one clip and then immediately to another one. You can see. But if I make that change here like that, you can see that after this clip ends, I'm not able to. So I have to manually drag this all the way here and put it here because my magnetic tool is on, snap is on, on my timeline. I'm able to actually drag this from here to here and you can see it'll snap. And that is the snap that we have. Right. But if I did not have this, I will not get that snap. I will have to like manually see if this is automatically aligned. So it's always good to have this snap tool on so it will automatically magnetically attached to the end of the clip. But what I wanna do here is I want to go back and let a bit, and I want to show you another trick. I'm going to just drag it all the way here, OK, and now I do not want the gap to happen because let's say you may have, you will have a lot of clips following and you have to immediately after individually drag one clip and put it next to each other. What I want you to understand is there is a better way to make this edit. We call that ripple edit. The previous one was just a normal edit. Drag and edit like that. The new tool that I'm going to introduce right now, this tool is called the ripple edit tool. I want you to go next to your clip like that and press Control on your keyboard. If you're using Windows, if you're using Mac, press Command key, you get closer, you can see that the color for this icon was toolchains to yellow. Right? Now we own in ripple edit tool, again, pressing Command or Control on your, on your Windows keyboard or Mac keyboard, you press Command. And now when you drag this all the way here, when you leave, it did not leave the gap there. It just connected left that video like that. There you go. So that is our ripple edit tool. I can do that one more time and I can go all the way to the end and you can see that it will automatically let me just do it here. Let's just bring it close and drag and then leave. And you can see that it may, but it also reduces, it also reduces the size of your overall timeline. So it will drag all the items here in this direction. And you don't need to manually connect these clips because when you make these changes and you're dragging clips individually like this, you can see that you are actually making changes. Another way that you can look at all this and other interesting way of doing it is our Select tool and select all tool by pressing a on your keyboard like this. And when you click on, you can see that the icon change. And when I click here, selecting all the clips, all the clips after this clip and not before this. And I can just use this to drag all the clips together. That is another handy tool that you can use. Always go back to my select tool and you can see that I'm able to do that. So these are some of the tools that I use most of the time. We also have the hand tool handle this very efficiently. I can use the hand tool to move here and there. But the problem with the hand tool is good when you have a large timeline, when you're working on a documentary, maybe a large timeline you may need the hand tool to work on. But for this, you, you do not need that. So I'm just going to go back to the Select tool. The beauty of the select tool is that I can also lasso select like this. I'm not able to do that with any other tool. I can do that here, select everything, and then move it in one direction, or here or there. So that is what I'm able to do it select tool. So that is that is what you need to know basically for any edit on the timeline. So let's go back. Let's get rid of all these and let's start populating the timeline with the footage that we have. 10. Class 09: Editing Timeline Part 2 - Adding clips to timeline: In our previous class, we learned about the timeline. We brought some footage into our timeline, use different tools to enhance our workflow experience inside of premiere, in this class, we'll bring the cooking video footage and start working on our video project introduction. I've cleaned my timeline here, so there's nothing here. The previous videos that I had, I've completely gotten them, got rid of them. I'm just going to go into my main folder that we have here and I'm going to search for intro. This is the intro for my cooking video. Let's put it in our source monitor by double-clicking it. And let's play this and see what we have in it. What can we use, what can we extract and bring it to, bring to our timeline? All right, Another key thing that you need to one-year reviewing your footage. The footage speed, you may want to increase the speed of this. There are some shortcuts that you can actually use to increase the speed of your footage when you are reviewing. Otherwise, if it's a one-hour photo is you have to spend one hour to view it. Perhaps you want to increase the speed by two times or three times to view it quicker. Now there are some shortcuts that I actually used. The first one is definitely to press space to play and pause. The other shortcut keys that I use most of the time, those are the ones that actually use not much of a space, personal space bar person. The keys are J, K, and L. So when you press L key, it plays pressing KCI will pause and pressing J key will do the rewind, right? But if you press the L key twice, and you can see that I can increase the speed. So this is something that you can actually use to do a nice, You can use the same keys here in your source monitor and on your timeline as well. Let's see what we have. Is this. Hello. Today we're moved to make our Rami key. Alright, so you can see, I'm going to use my mouse. It's much faster. I can. This is where I want, so I'm going to press an end point and then go forward. Today we're moved to make our ROM key. This is a class for Skillshare. I share this in showing you how we can use. Alright, so that's just one. Maybe until it's a skill channels it will share. Okay. I don't have to be precise. Let me just make an outpoint here and just drag this footage all the way here. Now, I am going to use the option key and the control mouse drag up and down. If you're using Windows, it's all n scroll wheels. I'm just going to zoom in a little bit and open up my audio for my visual. So now you can see are around you. All right. So you can see that this is what I have. Okay? Okay. This is where it ends. Now I'm going to use the ripple edit tool. Go next to it, press Control on Windows, command on Mac, and then drag it all the way here. This is a very good, this looks like a good beginning for us. Let's see what else do we have? Shared this and show you how you can use while working video a lot of people having me, I don't know. We're going to make Romney. And then we're going to make a domino should be with iPhone and my horses. I didn't give us an excuse of how we can actually use. And maybe, maybe that was a good one. Let's use mouse. Okay, maybe here I'm going to make an end point. I think I put that again with iPhone 13. I'm using cinematic moles and that'll give us an experience of how we actually use it in a more competitive when final video, I'm making brown horse on the people that I know. And this will actually give us a very long standing for me. It was a great opening. Doors are returning. So maybe I should make this one video is these days lives. And indeed these clips and willing to give me carbon model, Let's get started. All right, so you can see that these videos are, I made this foreign editing class because I was making another thing class for Final Cut Pro, which is definitely going to happen. But I thought of using these clips for Premiere Pro as well because of the editing concepts are exactly the same. You can shoot your videos and then edited it on any software you want. This specific class is for Premiere Pro. What are the things that we can do? There will be another class or editing a cooking video on Final Cut Pro as well. But for this class I'm just going to use Premiere Pro. So do not worry about what I'm saying in the video if it's Final Cut Pro or not. All right, I'm just going to drag this for each year and bring it in this area. All right. Now you can see that I already have. Beginnings for this clip. I think the second introduction is really good, so I'm just going to click here and delete this. But remember, if I click here and press Delete on my keyboard or Backspace on my keyboard. By doing that, it is still going to make a space and then I have to manually drag this all the way here. I do not want to do that. There is a better way of doing that. You can click on the clip that you want to get rid of, then right-click on it and then use ripple delete. Once you click on ripple delete, it will remove that clip and we'll fill that space with the clip that was following it. All right, so I'm just going to use this new value, favorite iPhone 13. Students and cinematic more. So I do not need to use the cinematic mode or are the things because it doesn't matter. I can't edit the cinematic video inside of Premiere Pro right now. So maybe I want to cut that. We're going to make a value for the way the iPhone, okay, maybe I'm shooting with iPhone 13 is where I want to add. So I'm just going to make a cut here. I'm going to press L. Let's just, let's see. Maybe here. This is where I want. So I'm just, there are a few ways of going about this, right? I can just press, I can come close to my edge of my clip like that. Click on it, and then press Command or Control on my keyboard and then drag it all the way here, and then I can make a change like that. This video is me. Maybe the journey. So trending. Maybe I need to zoom in a little bit more and see where the audio is. Okay. When I say trending, I want to make a cut here by pressing C and then making a cut in this area, press we click on Select tool. Okay, so this is where I begin because I made these. The reason I clapped is because I'd get a visual representation of where I would need to make a cut so I don't need to watch that thing. I know that something happened here. Maybe I took a retake. So that's why I have this big clap, which gives us this very tall audio signal. So all I need to do is bring my four ditch next to my. And you can see if the snap tool is on. It'll automatically snap to that particular area. I let's see what we have energy these clips. All right. I mean, I don't want to be precise right now. This is great for energy, these clips and willingly. Okay, maybe I do not want this Final Cut Pro bit. Maybe I just want, let's get started. So let's just create here a cut, select tool, press right click, and then ripple, delete. Let's see how it looks. All right, I think this looks good. Alright, this is what my integral will be like. I don't want to touch this right now. I just I just feel that this is a rough card, so it will exactly be what I want to do. Let's go to our let's go to the sub clips that we created. So in your ingredients upgrade, remember in our sub clips video, I took a video of ingredients and then I started chopping up. I started making sub clips out of those ingredients. If you have not done that, I encourage you to go back to that video, make those sub clips, that would be a good practice for you because that is really going to save me some time. You don't have to do that again. So I'm just going to go into subgroups. And you can see that I've named all the ingredients here because this is exactly what's going to happen after that. So I'm just going to start dragging these ingredients one by one so I can just click them here. Perhaps, maybe I want to go for butter. And then let's say chocolate. I mean, I'm, I'm doing that on my own. Dislike that they are not in any specific order. You can you can change the order if you want. So I'm just going to drag them. I hope I don't miss out on anything. When the likes drag. I think I left cocoa powder. And the last one is all-purpose flour. This is something completely up. I mean, this is up to me. I'm just doing it my way. You can completely change this order the way you want. So let's play this and see what we have. I'm going to press L. And this will actually give us understanding for how you get your lead, 230 grams of water, 130 grams of a job that you want. And I'm using this in case you're wondering, should I be using for eggs? These are normal. If you want to use organic, whatever you want to use you can For a 100 grams of sugar. This is just a normal sugar that I'm using that I find in the market these machinery want. You will also need how she's doing. This is what I found the US anymore, six hours. And you'll also need 140 grams of all-purpose flour. All right, so you can see that this is looking pretty good. We are at about one minute mark here. There are. If I zoom in a little bit, there may be some things that I want to change this to, let's say k here. So you can see that as I play. The reason I shouted like this is because I wanted my hand to come up really quickly with a sound effect of that push. And then this pops up and then we can have butter, and then I can have the, the text here like this. For example. Just for the sake of this example, 100 grams. So I can always have that particular option. You can see that I'm able to bring that here. So this is what I wanna do. Let's continue this in our next class where we make finer adjustments to this introduction video and start working on this little bit more. I'll see you in the next one. 11. Class 10: Editing Timeline Part 3 - Refining your clips: In our previous class, we brought the introduction bid of our cooking video into our timeline and started working on it in this class, we'll continue refining the introduction bit and see what are the different tools that we can use to enhance our workflow. Just going to continue where I left off previously. You can see that we brought, I can just zoom in and out. You can see we learned about this in one of our class. This is the part where, let's take a look at it to what we have. Okay, sorry. All right. I also brought a text element here, or a text bit which is right here. Let's see what we get. When we do. Let's move this or maybe just press on this and press Delete on your keyboard. Let's see what we can do here. Let me just zoom in a little bit. Okay. You'll lead to want to okay. My okay. You see this bit here, which is coming. I shot this like this because I wanted to add an effect which was a very quick way of my ingredients popping up industry. This is something I planned when I was shooting this, and I knew how I could execute that in the editing process. These are some of the things as you grow as an editor. Or maybe you're shooting your own thing. You're a filmmaker who is also editing his, his or her own work, you will be able to actually come up with these things because you know how to execute them in the editing process. So let's see what I mean by that. What I want is I want to see this is where it pops up like that. Maybe what I can do is until here, I can make a cut like that. Now, it will be really good if I can actually, let me just press the Select tool. I can actually make this very quick like that. And I add also add a sound effect underneath that person hold on, ripple edit tool. And you will see Rate Stretch tool. When I click on that, you can see that the icon has changed. Our tool has changed from Select tool to our Rate Stretch tool. Now what I'll do is I'll go to the edge of my clip and I am going to maybe reduce it like that and then play it and see what we get. We can see that it is quickly coming up. It is much faster. What I've done with the Rate Stretch tool is I've increased the speed to 225%. You can see it here. I can always drag it out to make it slower or pull it inside like that to increase the space of to 100 percent is a good speed. Perhaps this is what I want. But again, what I meant by our ripple edit tool was, you can see now there's a gap now in order for me to move each and every individual clip, I have to drag it like that and move all of that. Or the other way of doing it would be to lasso, select all of them. Lasso select all of them and drag it in one direction. There is, however, a better way of doing this. You can press a on your keyboard and you will get this select all tooth. Once you have that, you can just drag it all the way. All the clips that are on this side of the clip or on the right side of the clip will be dragged all the way here. So now let's take a look at our claim by changing our tool press B. And let's see what we get. It's much, much better. Okay, now I'm going to go into my audio bin here, and there's one wish effect. I'm just going to drag that and bring it underneath this clip. Going to increase the size and see what we get. Let's play this and see what we get. We do. Not bad. Maybe I want to decrease the volume for this a little bit. So I'm just going to press you see this middle line that is in the center. You will see this for all the audio clip, I can use this to decrease the volume. You can see minus 3 dB minus 9. Let's bring it to minus 10 and see what we get. We not bad. Okay? That is, that is amazing. Okay, Let's zoom out and go to our next clip and see what we have. 30 grams of letter. Now. Okay. You see I brought it down like that and then we went out. I can see that one. Maybe. I want to do the same thing with this, but this time I'm going to come here, press Command on my keyboard. If I'm on Mac, if you're on Windows, if you're on Windows is press Control and then drag this here we will do the ripple edit. And again, we're going to bring it here. Press C, make a cut here, and then press R to go to our rates. And we've already selected this, press R. And now we're here and we're going to zoom in a little bit and drag it somewhere here you can see it's 214%. Maybe I want it somewhere there. Let me just press a and then drag all this footage here. Now, let's see what we get. Well, why? It's nice. Not bad. Now what I can do is I can bring my worst sound effect again here and make adjustments to minus 10 dB. Instead of doing that, what I can do is I can copy this and paste it here on your keyboard. You can press, if you're on Windows, press Alt, and then click and drag the clip you want to copy and bring it to the place and then release I'm sorry, doesn't happen. Press Alt and drag. And then release your mouse button and then your Alt key. And that way, it will copy, make an exact copy of that item in this area. What are you can see that I'm also getting sound from this track here. Maybe I want to reduce the sound of this track all the way down. Let's see. Okay, not bad. We can go ahead and continue doing this, but let's see, what else do we have in this really grounds of a job with one out of a job, everyone, I'm using this in case you're wondering, all right. Maybe I want to cut it here. So I'm just making small refinements into my clip and seeing that this is let's go ahead. Okay. Maybe. Okay, let's, let's just begin from here and see what we have. Just gonna do the same thing. Make a cut here, press R for the Rate Stretch tool, drag it here. And then what I can do is you can see is a 166% on a before, before. Maybe do a 100 percent, okay, that's not bad. Press a, drag these items here. Press V to select, drag it down, zoom out a little bit in, then move this item again by copy. This is a survey using four. Okay, we're looking here at our normal. You want to use whatever you want to use it. Maybe I don't want this all the ways. These are, no. Maybe I just want to end it here, is gonna be using for eggs and these are maybe you should be using for eggs. Maybe just for eggs. Until here. I don't want anything else. I'm just going to press my command key and drag it all the way here. Let's move forward. Okay, maybe here. I'm just going to do the same thing and then drag it here. And press C, make a cut. Press R, and reduce this a little bit. Okay? And press a, bring this here. So what I want you to do is I want you to make these fine adjustments into these clips and the way you feel there, right? You can see that I have a few more clips also here. I'm just going to do that and see what do we get from here. I'm just going to go to the next one. Let's see how it looks. This is just a normal that I'm using that. Okay, I'm just going to make a cut here. So that V right-click ripple delete. So you can see that as, as you grow as an editor or the more control you have over a software, you should be able to actually do these things in a much quicker fashion. You will develop habits the way you want. Okay. Let me make a cut somewhere here. Rate Stretch tool, like that, a select, and we'll forward. You would also need how to use as little over a 100 I surround. This is what I found. We can use this. Maybe make another cut here. Select to want to press R and then move this halfway. Press a for select all morbid here. Let's re, let's listen to what zeroes of water this can be any motor of your choice. Arenas can be 60 grams of water. Okay, until here I'm just going to make a cut in this area. Press V, select this right-click and ripple delete. Remember I'm rippling deleting because I don't want space, I don't want gap in between. Well, maybe let's start from here. What I'm trying to make sure is that I get to the point quickly. There are a lot of things involved in editing. The rhythm of editing, the speed of editing, how your edit flows, those are different things. Those are the things that will be in much more advanced classes about the concepts of editing. Not just understanding how to use the tools of editing. One goes behind making a particular cut or edit. Let's cut this very quickly and see what we get. I'm going to just repeal it till here. Make a cut somewhere here. And I'm going to choose the Rate Stretch tool, drag it here, press a to bring this for this year. And now let's take a look at our overall foot hits. Remember our footage was about one minute long. We chopped off at least 20 seconds or 10 seconds in that sense. Let's see what we get. Let's view this from the very beginning with iPhone or people that I know. And this will actually give me 230 grams of water, 140 grams of chocolate you want. And I'm using this in case you're wondering, should be using for a. Now you can see that it's actually looking very good. I'm just going to copy these sound effects and then listen to it with the sound effects. You can always zoom in and make adjustments based on where you think the sound effect should pop up. Here we're using for a 100 grams of sugar. This is just a normal sugar that I'm using. You would also need to see this one is a little bit off. So I'm just going to zoom in and you can see I'm going to make some adjustments here. You would also need to extract, this is what I found. We can use any Cixi, maybe a little bit here is 60 grams of water. You'll also need 140 grams of all purpose flour. Great. Now you can see that we have started working on our edit. And the first bit off our edit, AES, is looking pretty decent. Let's view it one more time. For the last time around your favorite iPhone video and making rounding or people that I know and doesn't actually give us a very long standing or how good was that? It was only way we can do as an RV driving. Let's get started. You'll need 230 grams of water, 120 grounds of any job that you want. And I'm using this in case you're wondering, using for a 100 grams of sugar, this is just a normal server that I'm using. You would also need hotkeys or a 100 abstract. This is what I found. You can use any or 60 grams of water. It wasn't even 140 grams of all purpose flour. All right, great. So this is the introduction bear in our next class, we'll bring some more footage here and start working on adding some of the B-roll shots or cutaway shots into our footage to make it look a little bit more seamless and refined. I'll see you in the next one. 12. Class 11: Editing Timeline Part 4 - Adding B-roll: In our previous class, we refined our timeline. We also added some sound effects. In this class, I'm going to add b rolls into our timeline. What I want you to understand in this class is not what I am choosing to go on my timeline, but why am I selecting that footage to go into my timeline and into my final video, I'll share some of the things that I think about when it comes to editing and choosing Beatles in this class. Now I'm on my timeline here. This is what we did, our last thing. So let's see what we have here and I'm just going to play a little bit of water. Okay, This is a very simple and basic edit. Anyone can do that. But there was some thought before putting everything here when I was shooting this footage, I had a thought, I had this vision. I had this idea that when I'm introducing the, the ingredients, instead of just putting it on the table, I'll just raise my arm and then make sure that that thing goes really fast and they'll add some sound effects underneath that footage. Now in this class, I want to continue and add some year-olds and shared the strategy of why I use certain kind of footage. Now, I'm going to go into my iPhone video folder and you can see that all these videos are named based on the numbers, right? Or lyse them. And I know which number that goes after which what I'm gonna do is I'm going to just double-click on this folder here. And you can see that I have opened iPhone videos in a separate sub-folder. I don't want to view it like this for now. I'm just going to click on this list view. And if it's not on ListView, you can click here to go back to thumbnail view. I want to use the List View right now and I want to share something with you. Now when I click on the name option here, it will make sure that it's cedar lies in a way that it's easier for me to read. So I always put numbers on my photos so that it's easy for the software to also stack it on top of each other and it's easy for me to footage anyway. All right. Now what you can see is the second one was the ingredients and this is the one that I actually use. If I double-click on, this is the one that I actually use for all of this ingredient which we made here. So we made pretty much about 40 seconds or 35 seconds worth of our footage. Now, what I'm gonna do is I'm going to go into the first step, which is step one, video number four. Step one is butter. Let's double-click on this and see what we have. Now you can see that this is our footage. Let's view this footage and see what can we get from this particular free and what's inside. Let's understand when I was shooting this was in my mind. I know it obviously, but I want to play this and share the strategy you Apollo, pick the footage from within this. We have do 130 grams of water, the vowel in basis with our challenges. For this. You can see that I was talking to my camera men and some major small, small bits that when it comes to ingredients, I think we're going to see your chocolate chips and make sure it's been getting worse. All right, what I'm gonna do is I'm just going to set a reminder for myself. Let's say when I am putting this here inside, I want to put a marker here so I can click here. And perhaps this will be a reminder for me what I want to know what this marker is about. So I can double-click on this marker option here and then put something here. I may be able to use this as a beetle. Yeah, I mean, this is just what I think I shouldn't be doing with this. And let's continue and see what we have. I'm going to double press the LQ. Make sure it's a 100 pounds. Alright, now let's go from the beginning and see what we get. I'm giving instructions to my cameraman who's doing it for the very first time. Okay. I didn't. This is where I want to begin, so I'm going to put an end point for this step we want to round. All right, Now I'm going to put an out point here. And for now, I'm just going to drag this footage here and view it on my timeline by zooming it a little bit. We have 230 grams of water and mix it with our chocolate chips. All right, This is good. Maybe I want to try while I'm holding this ball, I want to bring this footage here, which I Made some, okay, let's put an end point here and an out point like that. And instead of bringing the whole video which will come with audio, what I'll do is let me just cancel this. Remember we talked about bringing only video or audio from the clip. What I'm gonna do is I'm going to just click on this drag video only and bring that video in here. So let's see how it looks now. All right, not bad. Okay, so now we added our very first beetle and this is how I chose. I watch the video, I watched the entire clip, and then wherever I thought it was important for me to set some reminders or maybe in and out points. I made those points in those areas. Now in this area, we have this second video. This is step two of this entire process of making this chocolate cake. I've named them, I've numbered them. Remember, it's really important that you go through your photos before you bring it here so that it's easier for you to work with this and you have some sort of idea on how to progress with your project. Let's play this and see what we haven't gonna press L. I think we're going to put our Georges. This is okay. Maybe I can press M 1, I'm watching this. And marker would be set here. So for example, if I'm going through the footage and I think this is something important, I can press M and market will be put there. You can always right-click on it and clear or markers. Let's see what we get. You don't want to, I actually like when I'm pouring this here because in my previous video somewhere here, I do mention that I'm going to add butter and chocolate chips together. So maybe I can use this instead of this as Beetle. Let's see what we have. Okay, I'm just going to create an out point here and an endpoint in this area. Let's drag the video only to this place and see what we get on top here. Because my video is on top, the video underneath it all in the middle or the video, anything below that will not be visible. So I'm just going to drag this somewhere here. Maybe drag it all the way there. And so you can actually play this is just to tell you that you can move items in your timeline oriented in places where there are, genres are. Maybe. Okay, it looks good. Let's take a look at it again and we just follow, and this is where the honor challenges, okay? In this vowel. Maybe when I say Bao, I bring it here and then extend this all the way here and see how it looks on our challenges. All right, This looks good. I'm just going to discard this and let's take a look at it. We have 230 groundwater the vowel in our genres. Alright, so you can see that this nicely. Our genres, yes, great. Now let's move to our third video, which is melt butter. I'm just going to double-click on that. Where did it go? This is our sixth video, step 3. Let's play this video and see what we have. Initially, we are engaged and yellow together. So I'm taking the normal pencil and my water bottle the water in and out of all, I'm not on that list. You don't need to build it. I guess. You don't need all the way. Just make sure that enough so that your table of your other wells and actually touch the water, which is one. This is one less than that anymore. Okay. I think I'm going to just drag this entire thing with its audio and put it here and view it one more time because I'm getting some ideas of where I can use Beetle from here. Let's see. We'll make markers in this area timeline. I'm just going to zoom in a little bit and maybe I don't want to have this. I, all right, I'm just going to bring my mouse here. Do the ripple edit like that. Normal, normal pencil. Here you can see that there is, the camera is not framed properly, maybe in this area. In order to avoid this, maybe I want to add something here. So let's click on this clip here and add a marker. And double-click on this marker a little bit. If it's not popping up, it should be popping up, but if it's not, click on markers here and then you should be able to actually see this here. Let's put a Beatle of Cleaning this. I think I have one footage that I can use here. Let's continue. It has a little r, little r, E, and K will be filled with water. Okay. I'm going to add another marker here, filling the water. Okay. And these are all beetles that I'm trying to remember. This is the method that I feel is suitable for me. You should, you can start with this method of finding out the refining your foot is because editing is all about watching your footage, reediting it, watching it, making some adjustments, and then seeing the final project. I do not know what this is going to look like, but I sort of have an idea based on what I've shot. I boil the water. Or maybe I also, instead of saying this, maybe I can show that while the water Let's see if I can find some footage of boiling water. Okay. Okay. Let me just put an a here. I'm describing some actions or it'll be great, too. Boiling butter and chocolate agar. So you can see that I made some markers here. These are some of the markers and these are the times where they will appear. Let's continue and see what we have. I'm going to zoom out a little bit. Maybe I'll make a cut here. This is where I stopped talking and you don't need to. You can use this as a middle so that your table view or other molecule, little r, which is one container, you can also take less than that if you want. Okay, I think I can I can just click on this and press Delete and then go into my phone videos, which is melt butter. Video number 6. You can see that all of these markers have been moved here. So let me just look for the first marker which says filling the water. Here. It says let's put a bottle of cleaning this. Okay. Let me bring my mouse here. Normal utensil, okay. Maybe I can start from here until here before I start filling it. And now I can drag this all the way here and zoom in a little bit. See how it looks normal. Pencil. Okay, you can see that there is some gap here. So let's get rid of this gap from here till somewhere here as an oppress. And then ripple delete. Once our ripple delete, you can see that the footage on top remains that pencil. Okay. When I say we'll fill it with water, maybe I can use this footage. Here you go. Maybe starting from here. Okay. Here. And then we just drag the video only. And this is where I say fill water out of the water. One of the water. And we'll see this is definitely part of the next step. This is something whatever I'm seeing, I have recorded that in my next step. So let's see what we have here. Next step is step number 3.1 and video number seven here. So maybe I don't want to show this. This is a whole, this is ridiculous. I didn't know it. They must be some problem. I need to get that checked. Maybe when somewhere here, boil the water. When I say like that. And drag the video somewhere here so that same or one of the water. Okay, not bad. And then put that on top of it. Let's see what else do we have? Let's go to video number 8 or maybe let's scrub here. This is the only thing I have. Let's video number 8. This is the one where I make sure that we actually we have on top. And you see I'm talking here on my timeline about this next video, our next step that I'm about to do. So maybe I can use this as B-roll. Okay. Maybe I can virus so that it starts snowing. Okay, I can start from here until here. Okay. Let's make an out point and drag it all the way here are one of the water and then 00, 00. 00, 00. Okay. Maybe I want to extend it a little bit. That looks good. Yes. Alright, well, we're gonna make it up. Now. I'm gonna go back here and you can see that we are populating, populating our timeline. Let's look at this way. From here. From the very beginning. You'll need 230 grams of butter, 120 grams of chocolate you want to use, you're wondering, should be using for a 100 grams of sugar. This is just a normal sugar flowing really well. He wills in the house you supplement or for the lagging strand. Use any 60 grams of water. You also need 140 grams of all births are we have to mine. The next thing we need to melt our butter water out of the water. Okay. There is something here. I feel that this is a little bit quick. Normal pencil. Maybe I want this to extend a little bit, but what I'm gonna do is I'm going to click on the Rate Stretch tool here, pressing R and extended a little bit. It is not going to increase the length, but it is going to stretch it a little bit so that I'm able to cover this area, but it's going to make it a little bit slower. And so thinking about all of the water. All right, so now you can see that we are able to actually see a little bit of our timeline. Let's see what we have next melting butter, which is video number 90. And we're using a normal fashion I'm making, I'm making a decision whether I want to use the bit or not. What I want to do is remember most of the, all the videos are, all the films are planned before. But once they go into editing timeline, things can change. I just want to make sure. I just want to make sure that while the water is eating, our butter and chocolate chip cookies are chocolate Hs actually notes together with it. Okay, I can put it on an outline here. I don't need more. Maybe that's enough. I just want to make sure that I just I just wanna let me drag this all the way here. I just want to make sure that while the water is eating, our butter and chocolate chip cookies are chocolate chips actually built together with, okay, I'm going to select, press V, select this area, and go back together. Made some adjustments. Let's go to step number three, which is video number 10. Okay. This is what you're looking for when you wouldn't actually boil the water and this is what you shouldn't be. There are certain problems. It will melt. When you actually good looking for when you actually coined in the water, we're all okay, maybe this is what you should be aiming for Xunzi, that there are certain grams of water and they will melt and form. Maybe I want to bring this here and perhaps we already have something. Let's see this. I just want to make sure that while the water is eating, our butter and chocolate chip cookies are chocolate chips actually melt? This is what you should be aiming for Xunzi that there are certain problems of the old mill. As we actually. In our next class, we'll work on the audio transition. The audio seems a little bit choppy. Let's look into the audio bits and see how we can improve the transitions between videos that are happening one after the other. I'll see you in the next one. 13. Class 12: Audio Transitions: In our previous class, we learned about B roles. We added Beatles into our timeline. We also learned why bureaus are important and why are we choosing certain kinds of footage over the other? In this class, we'll work on audio transitions. Audio transitions are important because you want a smooth audio transitioning from one clip to another. Otherwise, it's going to have a very drastic effect on your viewer, doesn't matter how great your footage looks like. If your audio is not transitioning smoothly, it may ruin the experience of your video. Let's see what we have in this timeline. I'm going to continue from where we left off in our previous class. This is the timeline that we built for ourselves. We added some B-roll footage here. And while I was reviewing this timeline, before I started this class, before I began this class, I made a marker in this area to remind me that this is the area that I need to focus on when it comes to audio transitions. Let's zoom in a little bit and see what we have. Right? Let's listen to this area here. I'm just going to make more room for, for our timeline so that we have a larger view. Okay, I'm gonna play this right here. If you pay close attention, I'm not sure if you're able to hear this, but there is a very strange audio transition that is happening from this clip to this clip. Let's see what we have. I just want to make sure you can see that it stops and then begins very abruptly. Now this is what we need to fix. A lot of times you'll be working on different clips you are on. Your visuals may be really amazing or maybe you're working on a film dialogue. And there is something that you need to do in-between these audio clips to make the transition a little bit better. This is what we're going to learn in this class. There are different ways of doing that. The first method that I'm going to show you is actually using the audio clip keyframes so you can make changes to the audio right within your timeline. How to do that is very simple. Now, when I zoom out, you can actually see that there is a line between the audio clips here or every audio of every clip, we'll have a line up. This is where we adjust the volume. You can actually bring it all the way down and take it all the way up. And you can see the numbers here, DBs will change and that will indicate the volume of this particular claims. For example, if I bring it all the way down here and then play this clip, you can see the volume is very low. Let's bring it all the way up here where it was matched with the other claim. I just want to make sure that while the war is eating are a 0. So you can see, I'm able to adjust the audio up and now, but the problem here is that I'm only focusing on a very small portion of this area that I want to bring down. And that is what we need to do in order to make this very smooth transition, transition. Look at transition this way. This clip has to fade down like this when it comes to audio and this clip-path to fade up like this in this direction. So you are looking for a V section here that actually smoothly transitions one audio down and then the other audio up in a V format or in a V-shape. How we do that is very simple. What I want you to do is I want you to press, if you're using a Windows computer, press Control on your keyboard and then bring your mouse close to this line. And you can see that the cursor or the pointer will change to our audio clip keyframes option. Now, pressing Control on your Windows computer. Or if you're using a Mac, you use command and press Control right here and click. When you click, you have made a keyframe here. Keyframes are really important about an animation is done through key-frames. We'll talk about keyframes later, but let's make another adjustment here somewhere, the end. Now we have made two key frames here. Now what I can do is I can pull one of these key frames and bring it all the way down. And now what we're doing is we're slowly transitioning or we're slowly fading the volume of this clip down. You may have seen this in a lot of dialogue, a lot of films, a lot of documentaries, a lot of orchestral music that you're actually listened to. This is a very simple fade down method that a lot of musicians used to fade their audio down. Let's see how it sounds if you can hear it, let me just extend this one all the way here. You can see I have a shape, a go. Okay, now let's make the same thing here. I'm going to make one here and one in this area and bring it all the way down. And now this into it. There you go. This sounds a lot better. And this is the transition that is maybe a little bit here. It's a lot, a lot better when it comes to this transition. So this is the audio crossfade that you are looking for. There is, there are a lot of other clips also that we can adjust, but it's always good to adjust these clips. A good method is to go back. Zoom out and then go to this particular option or the place where the transitions that are happening and manually adjust those clips one by one and you have to do that. I mean, there will be certain areas where where where you will be doing this. The reason I'm doing this on all the clips is because I shot this with an iPhone. There was no external audio, so I was not able to control the audio off off my video here the audio is from the iPhone and sometimes it's from holding the phone right next to my face. The audio power or what it's supposed to act toward will be recording will be a lot. Audio signal will be a lot higher, as opposed to when I'm actually shooting there at the bottom and the microphone of the camera really far from my face. The audio will be a lot better recorded here because the signal power, signal strength is a lot and it goes all the way there. The sickness rent will be a little bit weaker. So this is where I need to adjust. This is why I need to adjust it because different charts were shot from a different lens or from different height. And that's why I need to adjust the audio here. You may not need to do that, but it's always good to actually adjust these cross beds here because they will have a smooth transition in your audio. Let's see what we can do here more than these, I can zoom in in this area, but you can see that I have to manually go in every area. And other shortcut that you can actually use is very easy. If you use your keyboard Up and Down Arrow key like that. You can see that I'm able to jump between edit points like that. All the Edit Points I'm able to jump in. And you can see that here, this transition that, or maybe this edit point that is happening for the B-roll. The reason I'm able to actually jump between them is because they are active. I have enabled this option here, which is V2. But if I cancel this, I will not be jumping between them. I'll be jumping between these edit clips. You can always enable them and you can always, but this is something I don't want to use right now. But let's see what we can do. Let's go to this clip, zoom in a little bit and listen for maybe I want to have a little bit of transition here. Let's make one. Here is always good. Okay, this is what I need. Maybe I'll go to the next one here. And you can see that this is the audio that is actually fitting out. I'll zoom out a little bit to show you where I am. I'm on this area. So if I press the Up and Down Arrow and moving between these clips, and I can always make some adjustments here. Here. Bring it down here, here, and then bring it down here. And now let's see. No. Great. All right, Let's see what else do we have this bit? You can actually see that the audio strength here, you can see from the waveform is really weak because when it was actually shot, the camera was not really close to my face as opposed to this shot here. It is pointing directly to my face and it's recording what's right in front of it here. It's not recording what's right in front of it. It's recording in its surroundings, so the audio strength is not that great. That's why I need to make adjustments in these transition In these videos, what I need here is if you pay attention to this area, you can see that this is a little bit louder than this. So why not? We adjust this a little bit and see what we can come up with. Let's make an adjustment here and here. And then bring it down like that. It's a lot better. It's a lot better. Maybe I can make one here and here and then bring it down like that. And then I should be able to. Okay, that's not bad. So you can see that I'm able to make these adjustments in a lot of different places. I can also perhaps use a different method that I think will also save you a lot of time. Also, Premier Pro has its own audio transition dissolves or audio transitions effects available for you to actually use. Let's take a look at them and see how they actually work. I'm going to zoom in into this area somewhere here. And let's listen to this first girls. Are we have to, okay? Now what I'm gonna do is perhaps I am going to make some room for myself and click on effects panel here. And here I'm going to click on audio transitions, audio crossfade. And here you can see that there are only three cross fades available for us to use. All these three crossfade does exactly the same thing. They make, those V-shaped things where it brings down one audio and then brings up the other, so fades down and fades out. That is what they are essentially going to do so that you don't have to manually do that. I prefer doing it manually because I have more control over what happens here. You can, however, bring this all the way here and bring it in the center. And then you will be able to actually adjust this a little bit. And then you should be able to make this transition very quickly, just like we did in the other cleave. The only difference between these three is how quickly they are able to bring down the audio fade down and fade out. That is a difference between them. I mostly use constant power because that is that is something that I've been using and I think I'm pretty comfortable with that. But sometimes I may want to try constant gain and exponential fade to try out my audio. And other thing that I want to share with you is if I go to the beginning of my clip right here. And when I play, maybe this is the bit that I don't want. I can just click here and click here and then bring it all the way down like that. I may also be able to, if I press Control Z and remove this, I can bring constant power and you can see I have to adjust it all the way. That's why sometimes I prefer using that. You should be able to do the same thing here, but maybe I'll just want to delete this and instead make this adjustment here. Now, this is not an optional thing. You have to have a good ear. You need to be able to actually see this. Let's say this is not your video or maybe you progress as an editor or maybe someone else wanted their video to be made and it was not shot. It was shot amazingly with an iPhone and all the things. But the audio that you've got, four dialogues are for a lot of different things was not good. So you need to work on the audio as well to make your video or to make the transitions or everything that happens within the video, you need to understand that people are listening to your audio and they are watching your video. If the audio is not good, the transitions are not smooth. They're going to stop watching it and it will not be a good video for anyone who is experiencing. In our next class, we learn about video effects inside of Premiere Pro. I'll see you in the next one. 14. Class 13: Video Effects - Transitions: In our previous class, we learned about audio transition that we also use audio clip keyframes to fade in and out of our audio, which helped us to create a smooth transition between two different clips, the audio transitions, we also use some of the default audio transitions inside of Premiere Pro. In this class, we're going to focus on video transition. There are a number of video transitions available inside of premiere Pro that we can actually use. But keep in mind that there are many transitions available. Transition packs available outside of Premiere Pro, which a number of creators are actually selling. You can go to their website or chase them and use them directly inside of Premier Pro. But in this class I want to focus on what's available internally inside of Premiere Pro that he can use creatively to create these amazing transitions. Let's see what we have is the video that I am working on. And let's look at the first cup that we have between two clips. Let's look at it again. Let's zoom in on that a bit. Morbid here now is working on making it. They can see that this transition is not very small and sometimes it's a choice. You want to have it like that, like a jump gun, like some of the other clips that I have, I'm going to leave them the way they are. But here I feel that something can be done. Now, most of the time I use a cross dissolve, which is very easy to use. Let me show you where it is. I'm going to go into the effects video transitive transitions. And here you can see that there are lots of different transitions that are relevant. Many IE, light weight and slave effects. I use them in a lot of videos and they are, they can be really, really interesting to actually watch. You must have seen them in a lot of videos. Dissolve and you can see that cross dissolve is my default transition effects. I'm just going to drag it and drop it onto, oops, I didn't do that. I'm going to drag and drop it into this transition bed where the videos are transient, going to reduce the size of this a little bit. And when I click on this, I'm also able to see it here in Effect Control, you can see that this is what I'm able to do with it. I can increase or decrease or move it from one place to another. And you can see that the program monitor is giving me where the transition is going to happen. So let's see how it works. I'm making, okay, Not bad, although human making, Let's get rid of this and see now, I'm making it's not a very smooth. Let's just put this cross dissolve here. Remember, Cross Dissolve can be used for a lot of different things here I feel crosses all, isn't it because of the abrupt cutting or maybe I can define my edit a little bit more. But here, I think cross dissolve, it will look really nice. Now, let's go to the second cut that we have here. Remember we talked about this. Let's press the down arrow key on your keyboard by first activate your timeline. Press the down arrow key, and you'll be taken to your next edit point, which is here. Let's zoom in a little bit and see what we have here. Our return, Let's get started. This is okay. This is something intentional. I want it to be like that for him. Let's get started. Let's go ahead and see what we have. Let's get started. You'll leave this also. I want to leave it the way it is because it just sets the mood for the video. It just sets the style for this particular video. I want people to watch the first 17 to 20 seconds and understand this is the style of the beauty of that is going to happen for the rest of the video. These are some of the editing things that you would think about it as you become an experienced editor. But lets us move forward and see what we have. You'll need 230 grams of butter, 120 grams of any job outlook you on Mondays in case you're wondering, we should be using for ag. Now what we can do here is we can make it a little bit interesting. I want this clip as it's going down to make room for what's coming up. For example, this clips, this entire clip goes down and we get this nuclear coming up like that. So right now the transition is happening, but we can make it a little bit more catchy. Let's see what we have. I'm going to go into my transitions. Click on by hand here. Maybe, maybe let's just use sliding. Let's use push, and then drag it here in the center. Click. And now let's see what we get. I'm going to zoom in a little bit. This end-use you're wondering. So you can see that it's pushing in this direction, but I don't want that. So let's just fix that. Let's click on this transition effect and gloomy take Effects Control. And here we can see, here you see these directions, these arrows pointing by clicking on these arrows, you tell Premiere Pro, where do you want one push to happen from? So from here it's happening from the right side. Maybe I want it to happen from the top. I want the video to go down and the next video to come up, which it's doing. And I shot it that way, knowing that I'm going to use this transition for this particular class, Let's decrease the size a little bit and see how we go. When you see it goes down and my other xs are coming up. So maybe I can shorten this transition a little bit longer during maybe let's do it a little bit more. Green. Okay, not bad. I'm doing. Okay. That looks good to me. That looks really, really good. You can see in slow-mo or chocolate, the video goes down and then my hand comes all the way up like that. I can use the same effect. I don't need to do much. I can just, now I want to add this effect to this part of the video as well. Let's see where we go for this one. What I can do is I can click on and transition. And if you're on Windows, it's Control C to copy and Command C to copy on a Mac computer. Edit within that I'm going to come here and then paste this command V on Mac. Control B on your windows were illegal. Yeah, it looks better. This looks a lot better than what we had before. For 10 grams of sugar. There's copy this one more time. Command C on Mac. Here you can see that I, in my audio here, Let's increase the size a little bit. It's not really using, you will have. Okay, that's good. See, I'm not doing a lot of fancy stuff. I'm just being a little bit creative. I have planned this before. It really helps me in the final bit of my wasn't a hype video. I'm just going to copy this even more and add it to other bits. Now, let's talk a little bit about our our B-roll footage, but you can see that this is my bureau footage that is here. I've added a cross dissolve here, which is from this place now when I going to be rolled out and it mixes with There you go, it really nicely fits in. I can get rid of this and show you how to look. Mau, Mau. You can see that it's not really smooth. You're looking for fluidity, you're looking for read them in your video just like a song or music video, you want your video to flow really smoothly. And these are some of the elements that you add into your plate or onto your clips in your timeline. To get that sort of rhythm, you will get a hang of all this as you edit more and more. I'm just going to bring in cross dissolve a little bit here and maybe reduce the size and see how the above in this are great. I am just going to add all the cross dissolves to all the videos like that. And I highly encourage you to try out other transitions also within Premiere Pro. Add them to your video cuts for transition points and see how they feel at some background noise or background music into your timeline, underneath these transitions and see and feel this car. Because a lot of videos that you've actually seen on YouTube use these simple techniques. Sometimes use fancy transitions, sometimes it just improvise and use the simple techniques to see how their video pops up. I'll see you in the next class where we'll talk about color correction and other things that we can use inside of our timeline to make our video a little bit better. 15. Class 14: Video Effects - Adjustment Layers / Colour correction : In our previous class, we learned about video transitions. I went ahead and did all the transitions. If you have not done that, I'll encourage you to go back to our previous class and see how transitions are done and make sure you add those transition into your project and discuss. We will add more video effects to our clips inside of our timeline in Premier Pro, I'm in my timeline. And some of the things that you will be doing with your videos. You can see that there is, anytime you shoot video, you must have seen in a lot of different firms, there is a kind of color or the kind of color correction that they've done on those clips. You may not be able to do that now because color correction or any type of thing that it involves, coloring or anything, or setting up a mood using color in your videos is done by professionals who are only doing dealing with color. So you do your video, edit your time landing, transport, you export the video to them and then they will fix that for you. They will add colors and bring the video back to you and you can get the final export. And this class, I just wanted to give you a general overview of what you are able to do inside of video effects. In Premiere Pro, there are lots of things that you can do, but I'm just going to go for a general overview the things that you may require to do before you finish any of your project. Let's see what we have there, my timeline. The first thing I want to do is I want you to click on any clip that you have in your timeline and then go into Effects Control. Now here in the effects control you do see effects is for effects you can see different kinds of effects that are already there and volume is there. We've already adjusted the volume for by adding those keyframes, so those effects are available. But what I want you to pay attention to is this motion bit in motion, you have position and also scale for your cliff. So that's a, if I change this a little bit, you can see that these effects are being applied to the clip that I have at the moment I have clicked onto this clip has changed, is zoom lens a little bit. I can also change the position of my clip or the subject that I have in my video and then play this video. And then I can basically manipulate this video as well. And the easy thing is to just come here and then change the volume or, or zoom level or position of my clip. But the easiest thing is to just right-click on your clip copy and then come to this area or any club that you want the effects to happen on, right-click and Paste Attributes. When you click on Paste Attributes, you'll be introduced to this menu where you can actually choose what attributes you want to change. You can see that I only want motion, so I'm just going to put motion if you have done any volume or other things, it'll give you an if you've added any effect. It will also give you that particular options that when I click on, Okay, you can see that it has changed the magnification of our video or the scale of our video to 130. I can click here, it's 1000. I can click here to 13. If I don't like this, I can always come here and reset effects and we'll go back to the default state that it was in. I'm just going to at this as well, which I don't want, so I don't want to change this. The other thing that you'll be doing is color correction. Now there are a couple of tools that you can use. Now, first thing I want you to look for is fast color, correct? Or when you type fast, it'll appear here. You can click on this and you can drag it onto your clip. Moment you drag an effect on your clip, you will see that in effect control, you will see a panel appearing or an option appearing for that particular effect. And it's very easy, you can just turn it off and on like that. So I'm just going to drag fast Color effect here. Do that one more time. And now you can see we have a real sort of for our colors. And there are a couple of more things that you can do. Again, this is, this, these are done by colors of people who just do color correction. This is a different field. Probably you will find lots of many different classes on doing this, but this is just a general way of how I would look at this clip. Remember this clip was shot in iPhone. Iphone chose the best possible color and lighting for this, I'm not going to mess with the logarithm is going to show you what you are able to actually achieve. Again, I can just click on this wheel and drag my colors all the way. And if I don't like it, I can either right-click and clear this, that or let me just drag it back here. And let's make some changes like this. And I can disable this if I don't want for awhile. You can see it's that easy. Now what I want is let me just bring in the center. My color here of the video is very orangeish. I can see that iPhone chose it to be a little bit more saturated. There are more red colors available popping. So you can see that they're on the opposite side of this wheel. I have blue cart. Maybe I want to push this a little bit towards the blue and you can see, I'm able to see some changes already. Let's turn this off for now. You can see they will be some differences that you can notice in the color quality. And if I'm happy with this, I think this looks absolutely okay. I shouldn't be okay with this. And I can actually bring it down. And what I can do right now is I can right-click, copy this bit and put it on my video just like that paste attributes. Now, it's asking me if I wanted to have this effect. If I don't want, I can disable it, but I actually want this fast Color effect. Maybe I don't want motion. I haven't made any changes to the motion, but you can choose these options that are there to put into your next clip like that. So you can see now, my colors are the same for both these videos because it was shot with one camera and this is one whole, entire table, one shot. So I'm able to actually manipulate that in this way. Okay, and then we just press this video here and going to Effects Control and fast color corrector. Let's get rid of this. Let's clear this. So this has gone from my video here. Also, let's click on this here and clear this from the first clip also, Let's look for another way of doing color correction. Now that one is three-way color corrector. It's the same principle, but a lot more options. Now you can work on shadows, which are the darker parts of your video, your midtone somewhere on here, and your highlights with a really bright part that you will see in your video. Now you can actually work on your shadows if your shadows are towards, and I'd say I'm seeing a lot of reddish, greenish stuff if you are able to see it, maybe I want to go in the opposite direction, a little bit like that. Or in my mid-tones, maybe a little bit of x2. Know that as you can see, you can play around with this and my highlights. Maybe I want to make them a little bit. Not too. Okay. This looks okay and I'm able to actually change a lot more options also here. Again, increase and decrease some of the aspects in my video like that. And once you are happy with this, you can use them to other video. You can copy them on other videos and you are able to do that. But remember, you have a lot of videos to actually copy paste this effect to. So what I can do is I'm just going to clear this and show you another way of doing that. The third way of doing it, there are plenty of ways, but this is something that most people just get familiarized with all these options. Rgb curves, I can bring them here. Let me just drag that one more time. And now you can see I have different channels, red, blue, and green. And I'm able to maybe manipulate them in a very different way, like green colors, I can change them in a different way. So there are excuse me, there are lots of different options available that you can work with and these are some of the things that many people would, would work on when they are making their videos. But the first thing that you can't actually do is just the fast color corrector, which is which does the job pretty much better than a lot of other options available. I can just quickly go here and item member, maybe I want my videos to be a lit bit cool. I mean, by cool, I mean, little bit of bluish color in them. And that's, that's pretty much it. I really like that. Now I just need to copy this and paste it to all the videos. However, there is a better way of doing that and we call them adjustment layers. Let's create an adjustment layer and see what I mean by that. You're going to click on my projects here and you see this option, I want you to click on this new item. And you are not able to see this because I don't have enough screen real estate, but you should be seeing an option of adjustment layer. Let's click on Adjustment there. And once you click on it, it'll tell you the width and the height of the video. This is exactly what your sequence is. Let's click on, Okay, and let's rename this to color correction. And I'm going to bring it all the way here, drag it on top. And this office like that. I can also go ahead and actually rename my track. This can be my adjustment. There. You can rename these tracks to anything you want. Maybe this is arrow, B-roll, maybe D role. For whatever role you have, you can actually have all of those tracks Ning. You can only put those things here and it's easy to just switch them off, to switch it off just like that. Let me just show you what I have here. Now instead of putting effect on my video, I can put this color effect on this adjustment layer and then drag it all the way to the end. And anything underneath this adjustment layer will be affected by that. So let's just click here, go into our video effects. I'm clicking on the video where I added the fast Color effect. You can see here. Here, I'm just going to right-click and cut this from here. So it's just going to remove it and then click on Color Correction. Go to Video Effects. Go to Effects Control on my color correction, on my adjustment layer, I'm sorry, right-click and paste. So now you can see I've added this here. Now. This adjustment layer has that effect and anything underneath it will be affected by that. I can disable it. You can see the color changes. I can move it this side. You can see the color is like that. And then it'll change early. And we turn this on. So what I can do now is I can just drag this all the way to the end of my video. And that way I can create an adjustment layer. Now I can be anywhere on my color, wasn't me. What I choose. This is not the best color correction you can do, but the goal here is to develop an understanding of what you are able to achieve with adjustment layers. You can also add scaling effects and a lot of different things on these adjustment layers and save a lot of copy-pasting, a lot of work that you have to redo on, a lot of different clips. Adjustment layers will always help you do that. In our next class, we'll add text into our clips and start working on finalizing introductory bit of our video. 16. Class 15: Add Titles: In our previous class, we added an adjustment layer, did some color correction and worked a little bit more on our video effects. In this class, we'll add some titles to our video to finesse our timeline. And this is our existing timeline and where I want to begin. When the video starts, you usually see people actually put some lower thirds like their name, the Instagram handle, and a lot of different other things. I'm just going to put one option for us to appear here, that is where I want to begin. But I also have made something before I started this class. I just want to show you that and then we're going to make that from scratch when we go to grams of water. Now, what's happening is that these tidal effects are popping from the top and they are letting us know what ingredients we are using in our, in our cake. If I go very slowly, you can see this video comes and then our title appears like that. We're going to make that from scratch. And I'm going to show you how to do that in this video. Let's get rid of all these titles here. I'm gonna delete that and now we have a very simple, basic blank canvas. And I'm going to put all of that above our adjustment layer, which we created in our previous class. The first thing I'm going to do is I am going to select an, a video track where I want to add my text layer. So I think I'm going to choose this track here, which is v4. Let's zoom into this track. You'll see it's video for, I'm going to right-click and rename this to text there. Now, I'll be working on this layer and adding my text. The first thing I'll do is I'll click on my type tool, which is also T shortcut. And I'm going to just write my name, assad me. And once I do that, I go back to my select tool and bring this somewhere here. Now you can see that it does not appear that well, so when I start the video, it just pops up here. Let's try to modify this option. And first thing I want you to do is wants to click on Windows and go to essential graphics. Essential graphics lets you select some of the default things that are available here inside of Premiere Pro that you can use. There are a lot of different things that you can. You can just drag and drop these items here. And then you are able to actually make some really cool changes here. You can see caption appears here. I can double-click on this and write my name. And now it's going to make that happen. They, these may not be the right thing that you want for your video, but I'll encourage you to browse through all of these options and see which one suits the best for your particular video. But here I'm just going to create something from scratch and show you how you can use this essential graphics option to enhance the texts that you have here. So let's click on this text layer and then click on the Edit option here. And now you can see I have made another, made myself a text option, which is a sad when I click on that, a lot more options will pop up. And these are some of the things that I can change here. For example, you can see that I can change the opacity of my text. So you can see the opacity is changing. Also, I can change the size of my text here so I can make it a little bit bigger. I can also choose what text, what font style I want, what sort of type I want. I can choose many different types like this. I'm just going to go for impact. Depending on what your style is, you may want to have a very different kind of font here. I also want to have it somewhere center, aligned like that. It went that way. Maybe I can click on selection tool and bring it all the way here, like this. All right, now that is done. Now the other thing is this is the appearance, right? Once I click on this option, I'm able to change the appearance of my tags. You can see it's turned black, strong y, and a lot of different things that are happening. Let's keep it at white and this, let it be there. Alright. I'm also able to add some strokes to my text. For example, you can see that on the edge you may be able to see a little bit there. Let's not do that. I can also add a background which you saw previously that I had in my, in my video. There is another way to add a background, because when you add a background, it just covers the area of the text. It doesn't go more than that. I want the background to stretch from here all the way here. And that is what we're going to do. What I want you to do is I want you to go back here, click on this option, and then click on graphics on your menu. Click on new layer. And here you can choose either texts, vertical texts, ellipses, or rectangle. I want to choose that rectangle. When I choose a rectangle, you can see that it appears here, and that is the name also that appears here. So that's shape 1. Let's rename this to background. I have a background and I want to have it underneath my name, which is here. So that way I can just drag it here and you can see it's available here. But if I push it back on top, my name will be hidden underneath. So I wanted here and I can also drag it all the way here if I want, if I'm happy with this, this is this is great. I mean, I'm I'm happy with this or I can drag it all the way here like that, or maybe all the way here, maybe something like that. Now you can see that I'm able to have this. So one my start and I'm able to get my name here. And I can also have like maybe subtexts, which is, which is Assad allele, Baker shaft, YouTuber, a lot of stuff see with a lot of different videos. But here you can see that this is our opacity option for this background layer that we just added here, right? So I can click on this and decrease the opacity a little bit like that. And maybe I want to go all the way to 50 percent. You can just type that here. 50, 50% percent is okay. Now, you see, when I zoom in, this is how my text will appear. This is not bad right now. We also discussed some of the transition effects. This is, this is a video layer. I can add video transitions that we had before. Maybe I can go into slides and let's just click on Slide and drag it all the way here. And then zoom in a little bit and see how this looks. So maybe let's click on this and going to effects here. I want it to be fast. My bad. Maybe I can zoom in a little bit more. Okay. That's that's that's pretty decent. I can hire a hon okay. With this. Okay, so that is what the introductory bit can look like. N There are a lot of when you click on this, there are a lot more options that you can play with when you click on your name or the title. And then you should be able to actually do a lot more things here inside of Premiere Pro, I'm just going to move forward and go to a place where we start discussing our lead II. Here we are, we do on a 30 grams of butter. Okay, what I can do here is perhaps I can click on the Text tool here, and now I can make an adjustment so you can see wherever my play head was, it made that graphic option for me. See you. Okay, let's type here 200 grams butter. And I can go back to my select tool while this is highlighted, and I can bring it somewhere here. Now I'm using impact. Maybe I want to increase the size of my text to let's say 160, like that. Center aligned. Move it back here, somewhere here. Now I can add a stroke if I want, and I can also add a background. You see that now here in your background you have a lot of options. You can make the background a little bit. You can change the opacity of the background, but I want to keep it here like that. You can also increase the size of this background, but this seems to be okay. And also the curve of the edges. You can have it all the way like a rectangle or maybe you can have very smooth edges. That one I played back. We do on 30 grams of butter. Like that. I can zoom in and use my trim tool. Bring it all the way here. Now we have the second one. Now, you can go ahead and create it all the way. I mean, the same way you can just click on the Text tool and have the settings play around with it one more time. But what you can do is you can actually copy this here so you can press Alt on your keyboard if you're using Windows and Option on a Mac computer. And then click and drag this clip here, and then leave your mouse first. And then leave the Alt or Option key. And then you can see you just made a copy of that. You can just keep doing that until you get to all the I can drag it here a little bit like that. Now I can click on this, click on my Text tool, and then I can change this. This is one hundred and one hundred twenty grams. Chocolate. Here's what I have. Now because I did not add any transitions. I can also add the slide effects. So I can just click here and make sure that this slide, if it happens, again, bring it from the side. We do on like that. We do on 30 grams. I can also click on this control C for copy, and then come here and Control V for pasting it on another clip. This is just for the transition effects. If you're using a Mac, it's Command Plus we see, you can see that these are the Euro. Or you can click on this option here and come to effects controls. And you can choose where you want this to appear. I like it to come from the top. Like that, adds a little bit more, I would say flavor to the effect. Really like that. I also want that to happen here. Maybe I can reduce the size a little bit and then change this like that. And then I can go ahead and copy this to all the options that are here in my video. And that way I will be able to create these texts, animations on block different parts of our video. In our next class, we will learn how to export these videos into the format that we want. 17. Class 16: Export your first Cut : We finally come to the part where we export our videos or the timeline that we've been working on, or the sequence that we've been working on into a format that we like. Either we want to upload it on YouTube or a lot of different platforms that are available. Maybe you're working with a client, maybe there's a home video that you want to shoot. Maybe you shot your own cooking video that you had for a very long time and you edited that video. Let's learn whatever we worked here, how to export it. Outside of Premier Pro's, we first began, our interface looked very simple, very, very basic, but by now you should have a very complicated interface. And this is what mine looks like after working on this video, what I've done is I have actually added these title to a lot of different options that we had the ingredients, but I wanted the ingredient bids to have half title. So let's view this before we actually export our, our video. But you know what? Let's just close this. Let's click on this burger icon or these three lines, and then close this panel is gone. And now we can expand this a little bit more and maybe expand this also in our view it a LE lets you wait a little bit more. Now. Okay. My name appears. You can have anything there, Superman, Mario. We do on 30 grams of this where you're using for a while. This is just a normal sugar that I'm using. You will also need how to split off from the leg strap. This is what I have found. You can use any 60 grams of water. You'll also need 140 grams of all-purpose flour. We have 230 grams of water in this bottle and mix it with our chocolate chips and actually lead to melt our water and andragogy. The unknown together as I'm taking the normal pencil, which I am and my kitchen and one of the blocks or some of the B-roll to be added with that. Out of all on top of this, I just want to make sure that while the water is eating, what are actually notes or there are certain. Alright, this is the video that we made and we've been working on this for the past couple of days. And if you have completed this congratulation, you have edited your first video and this is just the beginning of your editing career or editing processes. Or maybe being an influencer, a YouTuber, or anyone that you want to be. You can be anyone, but this is the very basic process that you have to follow for every video creation process. So what we will need to do is I want you to click on your sequence. Our sequence name is 1920 by 1080. Let's change the sequence name to something more appropriate. I am going to go back into my project, click on my sequence box. And here these are some of the other sequences we made. I'm just going to rename this to cooking video intro bit. Now, this is now my sequence them and you can see the sequence name change here. Now I can click here. Now the, the, the shortcut that you need to follow as Control plus M, if you're using a Windows computer and for Mac it's Command plus MB. Once I do that, it'll pop up this video, and this is the output video that we have. And here are some of the options that you will see when it comes to export in right here, the format preset, what will be the output name? I can click on this particular option here and then it will ask me what will be the final name for this video. I already put in a sequence name. Maybe that sequence name was 1920 by 1080. I could change it here, but I'm just going to leave it there. But remember when we discussed our project bin, right, the very first video we discussed, I had a folder called exports and in that I had rough guards. And final, I'm just going to export this into the final option here or final been here. And I'm going to click Save. This is going to save this video into that folder that we created earlier. Other than that, we have formats for you. The format maybe a little bit different, but I always choose edge dot H.264 for my videos. And when I click on this, you can see that there are a lot of other formats also available for us to work with. Mpeg-2 MP3, so many, but most of the websites like YouTube, apple to I2 in movies or other Netflix options will always use S D26. It's very convenient for online streaming platform. So we're just gonna go for H.264. I'm not going to change anything else. Other than that here, this is some fancy term that you don't need to worry about since you're beginning to just started your editing thing. This is a very basic class. Then we have the audio and video option. These two options are the ones that, that will give you a lot more information about your video. Our video is 10 ADP, so you can see 1920 by 1080. That's what we are looking at. I can also choose some other options here in my audio. You can see that I can choose Audio Codec. So AAC, again, use the sample rate. You don't need to worry about it. The basic ones or the ones by default are absolutely Berlin for anyone to work on. Another thing is use maximum render quality. When you click on this, I'm a Premier Pro will do its best based on what your computer's capabilities are to output the best possible quality for this video. Remember what you're watching here, where you're doing here is a reduced version of your original videos so that the software can work. My computer is not that powerful, so Premiere Pro will always adjust that to my computer. And don't worry, I mean, if you're watching this video, I'm sure you have a computer fast enough to edit any sort of video. A few options that we can actually use. I always use, use maximum render quality. This really helps me output a lot of just take out the best out of, out of the 48. So it will help me get a very good output that I want. Other than that, there are options here, sequence in and out. We have work area and customer entire sequence. Its choose, I mean, I am choosing the entire sequence, but you can also drag it here and you can see you can choose the parts which you actually want to render out in your video. So you can actually choose that if you just want this part to be rendered out, you can choose that. But I want to choose the entire sequence, which means the entire video of the entire timeline where the videos actually stopped. That is what I want and this is something that you can actually choose there also, other than that, the estimated size will be about a 109 MeV. This is just an estimated size. By increasing the maximum render output, it may change the size of your final video. But you can actually see some formats like S2, D2, 64. It will tell me what will be the estimated size. Others may not tell me what the actual size of my final video is going to be. And the final thing that we're going to click on Export, when X click on Export, it is immediately going to start working on the video that we are working, you can see I have estimated time of one minute, 56 seconds or now it's actually reducing. So this will actually render out the video for me and we will be able to actually see the final video in that folder that we created earlier. All right, my video, your video was exported successfully. I'm going to go into that folder where our videos are. In this folder, cooking video for PR pro, click on exports final, and this is where our video is. Let's play this video and see how it looks like. We're going to be making videos, making brown, or some people that I know in Ashland gains understanding of how, again, make great leaders are less. Yeah, sorry. You're weak. You want anybody grams of water, 140 grams of any job that you want to think this in case you're wondering, should be using for a 100 grams of sugar. This is just knowledge or that I'm using. You would also need to have these underlying abstract. This is what I found. You can use any or 60 grams of water. You'll also need 140 grams of all purpose flour. We have 230 grams of water again, we're in this file and mixes with our chocolate chips. And basically we need to melt our water andragogy for making get together. They know together as landscaping, normal pencil, which I am my pitching and wherever water on the water and then put that other ball on top of that with just wanna make sure that while the water is eating, our water and chocolate chip cookies are chocolate chips actually announced. This is what the final video looks like. Export your video, play with it, go back to your Premiere Pro, make some adjustments and then export it back. Try some rough curse, try small, small bits, export them out and see how the final video will actually look like in You'll be surprise factor making couple of changes, be creative, do whatever you want to these videos to, to the videos that you actually have lying around in your house for a very long time. We shot with your previous phones. Does not matter what the quality of your video is. What you need to do is you need to become an artist. You need to start working with this canvas in front of you in Premiere Pro and create something which is meaningful. And it's something that helps you enjoy and spend time in a better, better way. 18. Class 17: Final Thoughts : Congratulations on completing your very first edit inside of Adobe Premiere Pro. In this class, we went through a lot of different skills. We talked about folder structure, creating your projects, you know, working on the timeline, working on sequences. What are different types of sequences that you can work on making int pointer now points creating sub clips, working with your clips inside of timeline, adding transition that we talked about, audio transitions. And we also manually created some of the transition. And at the end of the class we exported our project. And congratulations again, you did it. Make sure you share your final projects in the project section here so that other people can watch your creation and learn from you and get a lot of motivation. Remember, it's all about motivating others. Remember this is just the beginning of your editing career. They will be so many things that will come along your way when you start practicing more, it will come more with more practice and use this empty canvas, blank canvas right now in front of you. Use this immature attitude that you have towards video editing to become someone that you always wanted to be, you will always develop a style of your editing when any software that you use, Premiere Pro is just one example. There are lots of other softwares that you can use, but the basic concepts of editing will remain the same. I hope you enjoyed this time learning Premiere Pro and edited your first project inside of Premier Pro. I love spending time with you and this is something that I wish I had when I first started editing. I hope I'll see you in some other class. Till then, take very good care of yourself.
