Premiere Pro Tutorial

 

Exclusive Adobe Premiere Pro Tutorials for ACE Members
Two new Premiere Pro video tutorials are now available. Go to ACE Members Only.

  • Premiere Pro: Editor to Editor, highlighting fundamental features and ways you can customize your workflow for greater speed and efficiency. In the video,  Vashi Nedomansky, ACE, will walk you through Premiere Pro’s fundamentals like keyboard shortcuts, general settings, basic editing and audio. He’ll also touch on features and workflows unique to Premiere Pro that he uses to make editing more efficient, such as Lumetri color correction, Pancake Timeline, and Split Screen.
  • Premiere Pro Basics: Adobe product expert, Karl Soule, provides an in-depth look at some of the critical and often-used settings and features in and talks through editorial best practices in the app. Karl will show you how to get started in Premiere Pro, customizing your application settings and preferences, best practices for setting up projects, basics of Premiere’s UI & panels, and importing and exporting media.

If you’re new to Premiere Pro, or even if you already use it, these two tutorials offer tons of practical information and tips. And remember, Adobe is offering ACE members 12 free months of Premiere Pro, and one-on-one training (these days, via videoconference). Email ACE@adobe.com for more information.
