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.

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

Hi everyone, in this video I'm going to show you how to re-link your missing audio. Boom, it's back; let me show you how to do it. 

So we want to get this video-- audio back. The last video, remember we made, we did a voice-over. That was just like a for-instance, "Hey, this is what you could do." What's happened for me is it's been another day, I've had my sleep and I've woken up, and there's no more undos, because I've saved and closed everything. So now I need to bring back the audio. 

The way to do it is, it's complicated, it's not complicated, but you're never going to remember. So just know that there's a video in this course you can come back to. So you can get your Playhead above the thing you want to replace, just above it, then you need to say, on my markers I need to mark this clip, and it will set your in and out points. Then you need to say, of this clip I want you to go and find, I want you to match the frame, it's going to go and try and match the original source. So it's opened up my Source Window and it's matched it here, with the in and out points, then you say 'Override', and it will work, mostly. 

Mine work perfectly, yours might not, and if it's not, let's say that-- there's two things that could go wrong, and it's all to do with this Source Patching over here, so I'm going to undo. So what we're saying with override here, is we're saying, you can say, let's say audio, we'll talk about the audio first. If the audio ends up in the wrong place, it's because this patching here is patching to the wrong track. So it ends up here, or say you don't need it there, you need it over here, up to you, you can do it purposefully or by mistake. Watch this, 'Override', it ends up on that track. So just have this wherever you want it to be, then click 'Override'. 

Now the other thing that might go wrong is your Video Patching. Let's say your Video Source Patching is this one here, when I hit 'Override', it's going to go to this third track here. So if I do the same thing, it kind of works, my audio comes back but my video is up here, you're like, "Huh," it's because of this. Now how do you get it, you could say, I want it to be V1, but let's see what happens when that does it. 

If you've done no editing to your video it works perfect, but you see what happens to mine, if I undo, I did all this amazing kind of animation, plus I've done some Lumetri stuff, have I done Lumetri? I haven't, but let's pretend I have, it's going to override it. If I have nothing selected, this little drop down button here is going to say, I want you to override just the audio, because I've got no Source Matching going for the video, click 'Override', there you go. They're not linked, they're still separate so you can hold 'Shift' and click them each separately, holding down 'Shift' and say 'Link' again, so that kind of joined back up. 

I put it in there mainly because I made a mistake, and because it's quite useful to know, and that's also good practice of the Source Patching, this mystical world of the 'v's and the 'a's. Hopefully I made it a little bit clearer about this whole, why I have all this kind of Source Patching, why it's useful. Now that I think of it, there's actually probably an easier way. I'm going to leave this in here too, so I'm going to get rid of this, and over the top of this I do the same thing. I do my 'Markers', I set the 'X' to mark it, then I make sure I go to my 'Sequence', and let's go find-- match that frame in my source, and then just drag the audio part out. That will do it either even easier enough to mess with the Source Patching, then you can link them both up. Let's do that, 'Link', and 'Clear In and Out', because those are ugly, and drive me mad. 

All right, that's a little bonus video when Dan messes up, and how to fix it, but for now let's get back into the regularly scheduled videos.
