1. Learning Audio/Video Production
CHAPTER 7: Getting Started with Adobe Premiere Pro

2. Defining the Standard Digital Video Workflow (p. 245)
Each stage of the workflow requires a particular kind of attention and different tools.
Some projects call for more time spent on one stage than another.

3. Defining the Standard Digital Video Workflow (p. 245)
Workflow Steps:
Acquire the video.
Capture (transfer or ingest) the video to your hard drive.
Organize your clips.
Combine the parts of the video and audio clips you want as a sequence and add them to the Timeline.

4. Defining the Standard Digital Video Workflow (p. 245)
Place special transition effects between clips, add video effects, and create combined visual effects by placing clips on multiple layers (tracks).
Create titles or graphics, and add them to your sequence in the same way you would add video clips.
Mix your audio tracks to get the combined level just right, and use transitions and effects on your audio clips to improve the sound.
Export your finished project.

5. The Workspace Layout (p. 247)
Each workspace item appears in its own panel, and multiple panels can be combined into a single frame.
Some items with common industry terms stand alone, such as Timeline, Audio Clip Mixer, and Program Monitor.

6. The Workspace Layout (p. 247)
Launch Premiere Pro:
Click: Open Project
Open: DIM.prproj (from downloaded folder)

7. The Workspace Layout (p. 248)
The main user interface elements are :
Timeline panel: This is where you'll do most of your actual editing. You view and work on sequences in the Timeline panel.
Tracks: You can layer—or composite—video clips, images, graphics, and titles on an unlimited number of tracks.
Monitor panels: You use the Source Monitor (on the left) to view and select parts of clips (your original footage).
Project panel: This is where you place links to your project's media files.

8. The Workspace Layout (p. 248)
Media Browser: This panel allows you to browse your hard drive to find footage. It's especially useful for file-based camera media.
Effects panel: This panel contains all the clip effects you will use in your sequences, including video filters, audio effects, and transitions.
Info panel: The Info panel (docked, by default, with the Project panel and Media Browser) presents useful information about any asset you select in the Project panel or any clip or transition selected in a sequence.

9. The Workspace Layout (p. 249)
History panel: This panel (docked, by default, with the Effects and Info panels) tracks the steps you take and lets you back up easily.
Audio Clip Mixer: This panel (docked, by default, with the Source, Metadata, and Effect Controls panels) is based on audio production studio hardware, with volume sliders and panning knobs.
Tools panel: Each icon in this panel represents a tool that performs a specific function, typically a type of edit in a sequence.

18. Using a Tapeless Workflow (p. 277)
A tapeless workflow (also known as a file-based workflow) is the process of importing video from a tapeless camera, editing it, and exporting it.
Premiere Pro CC does not require the media from tapeless formats to be converted before editing.
Timecode is a universal standard for counting hours, minutes, seconds, and individual frames of video.

19. Using a Tapeless Workflow (p. 277)
Follow these guidelines:
Create a new folder for each project.
Copy the camera media to your editing hard drive with the existing folder structure intact.
Be sure to transfer the complete data folder directly from the root directory of the card.
For best results, you can use the transfer application that is often included by the camera manufacturer for moving your video clips.

20. Using a Tapeless Workflow (p. 277)
Visually inspect the data to ensure that all media files have been copied and that the card and new copied folder sizes match.
Clearly label the copied folder of the media with the camera information, including card number and date of shoot.
Create a second copy of the cards on a physically separate, second drive.
Ideally, create a long-term archive using another backup method.

21. Finding Assets with the Media Browser (p. 278)
Correction:
#1-3: Open New Project
Project Name: Ch07_04xx.prproj

22. Finding Assets with the Media Browser (p. 278)
Correction (cont’d):
Apply: Try It! Directions from pp (previous PDF) to Ch07_04xx.prproj

23. Finding Assets with the Media Browser (p. 278)
Using the Media Browser is an easy way to locate and import assets in Premiere Pro.

24. Shortcut keys (p. 279) Preview clips with shortcut keys:
L to play a clip
K to stop playback
J to play backwards
J or L multiple times to increase playback rate

25. Scratch Narration track (p. 282)
Sometimes, even the slightest change in your workflow can save you dozens of hours on a project in Premiere Pro Even if you’ve been using Premiere Pro for a while, you can surprise yourself by learning something new Personally, I didn’t know about allocating memory until two years after I started editing in Premiere.

26. Dbl-Click: “First Sequence” …to get out of the Graphics Sequence
Open a sequence, #4 (p. 283)
Warning:
Dbl-Click: “First Sequence”
…to get out of the Graphics Sequence

27. Working with Bins (p. 286)
Bins allow you to organize clips by dividing them into groups.
You can have multiple bins inside other bins, creating a folder structure as comprehensive as your project requires.
Bins exist only inside your Premiere Pro project file to organize your media within your project.
You won't find individual folders representing project bins on your hard drive.

28. Working with Bins (p. 287) Save Ch07_05xx.prprj and take screenshot
Command+Shift+3
Screenshot saves on desktop
Screenshot should include all bins in Project Panel and narration audio track in Timeline
