Basic Editing in Premiere Pro


This is a very hands-on & practical course, covering the basics of editing. Maybe you’ve looked at editing software and been overwhelmed by all the options, or you’ve cut a video before but are looking for guidance so your project runs smoother start to finish, this is the course for you. It covers:

Organizing Media

  • Creating a system
  • Where to save Media vs Project Files
  • Common elements folder

Organizing a Project

  • What is NLE, and how does it work?
  • There’s a lot of $#!+ on-screen, what does it all do? (and what can I ignore?)
  • Naming a project, bins, and sequences
  • Setting up and organizing a sequence
  • Creating a project template (for series)
  • Importing/Labelling footage
  • Synchronizing footage (manually and via automation)

Editing

  • Creating a sequence & making a cut
  • Layering tracks, nesting tracks
  • Adding audio/SFX/Music
