If you're looking for some simple distortion transitions in Premiere Pro, Justin Odisho has you covered. He creates this fisheye / pincushion transition by applying and animating the Lens Distortion effect on an adjustment layer centered above the edit point between two clips. This is a cool looking transition that can add a lot of style to your edits. And it's very easy to do.

In this Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2017 Tutorial, I will demonstrate how to create a fisheye or pincushion distortion transition effect using lens distortion effects and adjustment layers. —Justin Odisho

Still recovering from a blown mind. The majority of this The Video Course tutorial is inside After Effects. The host, Kevin Anson, walks through the entire process of designing and animating a lower third that can be reused in Premiere Pro to reveal your text. This is not a Dynamic Link workflow or an AE Template. This lower third is rendered out of After Effects as a standalone asset. Kevin generously provides the project file for free below.

We could all use another self right? In this YouTube tutorial, Casual Savage teaches how to create the clone effect in Premiere Pro. This is done by layering your locked-off camera footage, cropping or masking the top layer (Casual Savage uses the Linear Wipe effect) and feathering the edges so it looks like one seamless shot. Now it's just a matter of deciding which self has to go to work while the other stays home.

In this video, I will be showing you how to clone yourself in Adobe Premiere Pro CC. —Casual Savage

Josh Olufemii is the artist behind Olufemii Tutorials. In this video, Josh shares his thoughts on deflection, which is not a specific transition or effect in Premiere Pro. It's a technique. Josh defines deflection as a visual distraction while transitioning from one clip to the next. He lists several forms of deflection, such as speed ramping, overlaying, and popping shapes. Most importantly, Josh says these visual elements must be accompanied by an audio effect for maximum impact. This tutorial has a lot of interesting concepts. Well worth the watch and consideration.

Screenlight: The Definitive Guide to Adobe Premiere Pro's Media Cache

Screenlight: The Definitive Guide to Adobe Premiere Pro's Media Cache

Premiere Pro's media cache is mysterious. Even today, I have to remind myself not to be afraid of it. Thankfully, there's this new guide from Screenlight, a blog post written by Premiere Pro trainer Jason Cox. He defines the media cache as a collection of "helper files" for Premiere Pro. Jason goes on to explain the different types of files and how to manage them. Great post!

Video editors deal with a lot of files. Beyond the of thousands of media files, render files, autosaves, and backups, the last thing we want to think about is additional… anything. But the dirty secret is, there are probably files on your system right now, devouring precious hard drive space and you have no idea they’re there! ::cue dramatic music:: Welcome to Premiere’s Media Cache! —Jason Cox, Screenlight Blog

Rocketstock: Video Codecs and Image Sequences with Alpha Channels

Rocketstock: Video Codecs and Image Sequences with Alpha Channels

Sean Schools
Tutorials, Workflow

To beginners, "Alpha channel" sounds like a sci-fi term, like some kind of video 4th dimension. Simply put, it's transparency, something that can be seen through. For example, if you have a graphic that you want export and overlay on top of your video, you need to export it in a format that allows everything but the graphic to be transparent. Otherwise your graphic will be surrounded by black video. This Rocketstock blog post by Michael Maher is a quick look at some of the codecs and image formats that support an alpha channel. These formats can be used when exporting out of Premiere Pro or Adobe Media Encoder.

Creating an overlay or title sequence that you want to make sure keeps the alpha channel on export? Here are some of the best video codecs and image sequences that will make layering clips a breeze. —Michael Maher, Rocketstock blog
