USING ADOBE PREMIERE PRO CS4

Workflows and system setup

Last updated 11/6/2011

Refine the sequence by manipulating clips in a Timeline panel, with either context-sensitive tools or tools in the Tools
panel. Use the specialized Trim Monitor to fine-tune the cut point between clips. By nesting sequences—using a
sequence as a clip within another sequence—you can create effects you couldn’t achieve otherwise.

Add titles

Using the Premiere Pro full-featured Titler, create stylish still titles, title rolls, or title crawls that you can easily
superimpose over video. If you prefer, you can modify any of a wide range of provided title templates. As with any clip,
you can edit, fade, animate, or add effects to the titles in a sequence. (See “

About the Titler

” on page 237.)

Add transitions and effects

The Effects panel includes an extensive list of transitions and effects you can apply to clips in a sequence. You can
adjust these effects, as well as a clip’s motion, opacity, and Variable Rate Stretch using the Effect Controls panel. The
Effect Controls panel also lets you animate a clip’s properties using traditional keyframing techniques. As you adjust
transitions, the Effect Controls panel displays controls designed especially for that task. Alternatively, you can view and
adjust transitions and a clip’s effect keyframes in a Timeline panel. (See “
