Digital Video Using Premiere Elements
Video Media Source • Web Site • Clip art • Webcam • Mobile phone • POV Camera • Handy Cam • High end video camera
Do I need to edit? • Teacher Tube, YouTube - just upload! • MS Movie Maker • Within PRE: • Guided Edit – Instant Movie (themed) • Sceneline – simplified view of clips • Timeline – full view at frame level • Quality of original video (mobile, webcam, DV cam, HD cam) • Number of clips, time for editing • Learning curve • How videos are to be used
Video structure & files • Video has images and audio files • Many file types and ‘packages’ • MPEG, MOV, AVI, WMV, 3GP • High quality = very big files (Gigabytes) • DVD = 4,7GB or 9.4GB (double layer) • BlueRay HD = 25GB • Web quality = smaller files (Megabytes) • Much web video is Adobe Flash (.flv)
Video in a Web Page • Flash file – uses its own player • Embedded – uses code to get video from another site • Download – file held on site and downloaded to computer • Streaming – video delivered on demand to a viewing device

Important Concepts • Quick edits are possible • Does not degrade original files just uses markers • Needs a powerful PC especially if HD • HDD space if longer than a few minutes • Overscan if video used for TV (use safe margins) • Significant edit time for longer video • Significant rendering time for longer video • Original sound, narrative, music to consider • Easy to output to many formats
