Learn how to reframe and add movement to your shots in this visually dramatic Premiere Pro tutorial from Christian Maté Grab. Christian uses 4K footage but your footage doesn't have to be 4K.

As Christian explains at 0:50, the trick is having footage that is larger than your sequence size, giving you the extra resolution to animate the image without any quality loss. With more and more cameras offering 4K (including mobile devices!) this is an lesson for creating faux camera movements or angles in Premiere Pro.

Sean Schools

Tutorials, Color

In a very bold tutorial, Ian Sans of Learn How To Edit Stuff shows off his best practices for color grading in Premiere Pro. At 2:03, Ian begins his journey through the Lumetri Color panel, starting with the Basic Correction tab and going all the way through Vignette. While balancing the shot, Ian makes it clear that color grading is subjective, but if you want to be more "scientific", he suggests using the Waveform Lumetri Scope at 4:27. Ian skips the Creative tab and comes back to it at 12:57, and recommends applying Creative tab adjustments to an adjustment layer.

This week, let's learn how to color correct in Premiere! It's not necessarily easy... but it's easily necessary. —Learn How To Edit Stuff

Jan 23 VideoRevealed: Exporting EDLs from Adobe Premiere Pro

Sean Schools

Tutorials, Editing

You won't run into EDLs very often these days. But in case you do, here's a Premiere Pro tutorial to guide you. EDL stands for Edit Decision List, and Colin Smith of VideoRevealed shows how to export an EDL out of Premiere Pro. EDLs are primarily used for handing off an edit to finishing house or colorist. The problem is EDLs are very limited, as Colin explains starting at 1:07. You have to account for these limitations before you begin your assembly. At 3:10 Colin begins diving into the actual EDL export settings.

This is another requested tutorial on how to export an EDL (Edit Decision List) out of any Premiere Pro Timeline. With EDLs only supporting a single video track and four audio tracks, you have to plan how your edit will be setup to export correctly. —VideoRevealed

Shake up your edit with this earthquake/camera shake transition tutorial from Justin Odisho. In this video, he will show you how to use the Directional Blur effect in Premiere Pro to hide a cut from one clip to another. As Justin says at 1:40, the key to is using an adjustment layer to animate the effect across edit points. He also uses footage that was shot with quite a bit of shake, which makes this transition style very appropriate.

Jan 23 Justin Odisho: Fast Forward Effect in Adobe Premiere Pro CC

Sean Schools

Tutorials, Effects

Speed ramping is a great way to condense long clips and add visual interest to your footage. It works very well with moving shots, and it can used as a transition element as well. In this Premiere Pro tutorial, Justin Odisho shows how to keyframe the speed of a clip to create a fast forward effect. As Justin points out at 0:18, using high frame rate footage makes this technique all the more smooth and dramatic. Another tip: if you want to use the Warp Stabilizer effect, you have to apply it to the clip and nest it before adding speed keyframes.

In this Fast Forward Effect Adobe Premiere Pro Tutorial, I will demonstrate how to speed up slow motion clips in short quick bursts in CC 2017. This Time remapping effect allows you to sync bursts of camera movement to music or sound effects for an interesting video edit. —Justin Odisho
