Digital Video Tools for Adobe Premiere 1.5 Lesson 4
Selection Tool • You can change a clip's In point or Out point by simply dragging its edge in the Timeline window. • Move Tool • To edit the In point, drag the left edge of the clip once the Trim-in icon appears. • To edit the Out point, drag the right edge of the clip once the Trim-out icon appears.
Track Select Tool • When you want to perform an action that affects a clip as a whole, such as applying an effect, deleting a clip, or moving a clip in time, first select the clip in the Timeline window.
Ripple and Rolling Edit • When you want to adjust the cut, or edit point, between two clips, use variations of simple trimming known as rolling edits and ripple edits. By using specialized tools, you can make adjustments in a single action that would otherwise require multiple steps to accomplish.
Rate Stretch • You can set a clip's speed either by dragging in the Timeline window or by using a menu command. Both methods allow you to change the speed to fit a particular duration. The menu command lets you specify a speed in terms of a percentage, and a Reverse Speed option plays the clip in reverse at the speed you specify. When you change the speed of a clip containing interlaced fields, you may need to adjust how Adobe Premiere Pro treats the fields, especially when the speed drops below 100% of the original speed.
Razor • You can split a clip in the sequence by using the Razor tool . Splitting a clip creates a new and separate instance of the original clip.
Slip and Slide • Just as ripple and rolling edits allow you to adjust a cut between two clips, the slip and slide edit tools are useful when you want to adjust two cuts in a sequence of three clips.
Pen Tool • Use the pen tools to create an object of any shape, including straight lines at any angle or smooth flowing curves.
