Here's a quick tutorial on how to create Instagram Stories in Adobe Premiere Pro! As you may have seen it on my Instagram channel I often use videos I recorded with the Sony or the Mavic in my story so I put together how I create them in Premiere Pro, how to render the video and also how I send it to my phone in best quality. —Christian Maté Grab

Make your Instagram Stories more cinematic by sharing video edited and color graded in Premiere Pro. In this tutorial, Christian Maté Grab shares his method for creating Instagram Stories in Premiere Pro. He opens up his Sequence Settings at 0:33 to show you his vertical video dimensions for his stories. (Yes, vertical. It's a legit format now. Get over it.) He edits his Instagram stories in a 9:16 sequence that's 900x1600 pixels. As a bonus, Christian does some quick color grading in the Lumetri Color panel at 1:20. 

At 1:58 Christian reveals his settings for exporting video to Instagram. Pause the video to read his settings as he scrolls through them. One key thing to point out is Christian uses a 15 Mbps bitrate and encodes his videos at Maximum Depth and Maximum Render quality.

Lastly, at 2:35 Christian shows how he uses Apple's Air Drop to transfer the video from his Mac to his iPhone to post to Instagram Stories.

Learn the ins and outs of Dynamic Link between Premiere Pro and After Effects in this Cinecom.net with host Jordy Vandeput. First, at 1:36 Jordy shows how to import a Premiere Pro sequence into After Effects so that it appears as one Dynamically Linked clip, when a change is made to the sequence in Premiere Pro, the clip will update inside After Effects. This a good workflow for color grading in particular. At 3:51 Jordy demonstrates the more common Dynamic Link workflow of Replace with After Effects Composition. This sends selected clips from Premiere Pro to After Effects, and replaces them with a Dynamically Linked clip. Assuming you're finished with your After Effects work, Jordy shows how to Render and Replace the Dynamically Linked clip at 7:12.

There's always a level of ambiguity around beta software, and Adobe's Team Projects no different. How does it work? Who's it for? This Screenlight blog post written by Adobe Certified Trainer, Nick Harauz, answers those questions in one of the most definitive Team Projects tutorials to date. Specifically, this post focuses on collaborating with Team Projects in Premiere Pro, not After Effects. (Remember, Team Projects does not support Dynamic Link with After Effects at this time.) Nick covers everything you need to know to get started with Team Projects: creating a Team Project, sharing, media mapping, conflict resolution and version history. He also has a section on Ingest settings, which includes how to setup a proxy workflow in Team Projects.

Working with multiple team members in post- production has been simplified with Team Projects. The new feature is available in the latest release of Creative Cloud. To use it, you’ll need a Creative Cloud account for Teams or Enterprise. Once you’re setup, Premiere Pro, After Effects and Prelude allow for multiple video editors, producers and motion graphic designers to work simultaneously in each application sharing various versions of there work. —Nick Harauz, Screenlight Blog

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

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
