Overview

Hi there, my name is Daniel Walter Scott and I am an Adobe Certified Instructor.

I am here to help you learn Adobe Premiere Pro and to show you the tools you need to become a successful video editor. Premiere Pro is the industry standard used by professional designers to create stunning, high class videos and, after completing this course, you too can become a confident, skillful and efficient creator of stunning videos. 

This course is aimed at people who are completely new to Premiere Pro. 

If you are self taught using Premiere, this course will show you techniques you never dreamed were necessary or possible and will show you efficiencies to help speed up your workflow.

The course covers many topics - all of them on a step-by-step basis. We will use real world video editing examples to work through:
  • An interview
  • A wedding video
  • A short commercial
  • A documentary
  • Social media advertising videos
  • YouTube ‘how to’ videos
  • Talking head footage mixed with screencasts and voiceovers

We will work with text, animation, motion gfx, special effects and we will add music to our video.

We will learn how to do colour correction, colour balancing and also how to create amazing video transitions within our movie. Technical ‘guru’ topics such as HD v 4K, frames per second, exporting work, fixing up bad audio, balancing and synching audio will all become manageable tasks for you. Best of all...I will show you amazing shortcuts and techniques to speed up your workflow.

Throughout the course we will work on mini projects and I will be suggesting assignments which will add value to your portfolio.

Start your Premiere Pro training now and fast track your career as a video editor.

Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor

I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.

Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.

Transcript

All right, it's a reasonably easy one, there was a little bit of a squirly thing in there, to kind of test your reflexes, and your adaptability, hopefully you got it going. 

So I asked you, you could do it per text and per shape. There's the opacity there, but in this case I wanted to do it for the video and opacity. Decided, have to do it twice, so I'm going to twirl this down, and I'm going to get to the beginning here. This is the weird one, you're like, "It's already gone, did I turn that on?" How do they get on, that is one of the weird questions in Premiere Pro. There is a huge big dialog. If you go to uservoice.com, if you look online, and look for "Why is this on?" you will see a lot of like, serious Premiere Pro nerds complaining about it. Sounding, "Just turn it off, why is it on, nothing else is on." So it's one of those kind of weird things where, yeah, just is, you have to turn it on. 

So we've got it set to 0, and then it's going to come in for a little bit. I'm going to drag it up, just type it in. How long, that far, maybe further apart. We're going to get to fade out as well. So I'm talking, talking, talking, get to the end here. So just before the end, remember, set a keyframe, leave it at 100, get to the end. Gone to the end, and then set 0. That should do it, let's give it a preview. 

I'm just going to scrub it. I'm going to use our shortcut, so we're going to use 'L', and we're going to go double L, triple L, just to speed it up. There we go. Yes, you could use Cross Dissolve in that case, but we're practicing using keyframes, and I wanted to get you to share the, random, did I turn this on, why is this already on again, Opacity Slider. 

All right, on to the next video, well done by the way.
