Effects

[00:00:00] [Music]

[00:00:00] welcome to this premiere pro tutorial on

[00:00:00] effects i'm luisa winters

[00:00:00] let's start by opening the project named

[00:00:00] o7 effects included with your project

[00:00:00] files

[00:00:00] if you have not downloaded these

[00:00:00] please go ahead and do so now

[00:00:00] now that we have the project to open

[00:00:00] let's switch to the effects workspace

[00:00:00] for this click on the workspace switcher

[00:00:00] button and choose effects if you are

[00:00:00] already on the effects workspace you can

[00:00:00] click on the button again and choose

[00:00:00] reset

[00:00:00] to saved layout

[00:00:00] let's see where our panels are now

[00:00:00] notice that the effects panel is here on

[00:00:00] the top right hand side and we have

[00:00:00] other panels available in here such as

[00:00:00] the essential graphics panel lumetri

[00:00:00] color and others

[00:00:00] now let's move the playhead on top of

[00:00:00] the last clip and let's select this clip

[00:00:00] we're going to apply the crop effect to

[00:00:00] this clip with the clip selected go to

[00:00:00] the effects panel and in the search

[00:00:00] field type the word crop

[00:00:00] we now see the crop effect in here

[00:00:00] inside of the transform folder

[00:00:00] let's add that effect to the selected

[00:00:00] clip

[00:00:00] click on the effect name and drag it to

[00:00:00] the clip but because the clip is

[00:00:00] selected all you need to do is double

[00:00:00] click the effect and that's it

[00:00:00] in the effect controls panel let's

[00:00:00] change some settings

[00:00:00] let's set the right value to 20

[00:00:00] and now set the edge feather to 200

[00:00:00] what this does is create a smooth

[00:00:00] transition between the clip and the

[00:00:00] background

[00:00:00] let's toggle the effect on and off so

[00:00:00] that you can see the difference

[00:00:00] to toggle the effect on and off click on

[00:00:00] this icon here and we can now clearly

[00:00:00] see what the effect is doing

[00:00:00] now let's use transitions but first what

[00:00:00] is a transition

[00:00:00] a transition is a way that editors have

[00:00:00] to go from one clip to the next

[00:00:00] transitions can be fades and dissolves

[00:00:00] or even wipes

[00:00:00] i'd like to think that the most common

[00:00:00] transition is the straight cut

[00:00:00] but in this video we will be using cross

[00:00:00] dissolves across dissolves is when two

[00:00:00] adjacent clips fade out and in at the

[00:00:00] same time in premiere pro if we use a

[00:00:00] cross dissolve on one clip only the clip

[00:00:00] fades in from transparent let's try it

[00:00:00] i'd like starting programs with a quick

[00:00:00] cross dissolve so that the first clip

[00:00:00] fades in

[00:00:00] let's move the playhead to the beginning

[00:00:00] of the program and play

[00:00:00] [Music]

[00:00:00] see how it just starts

[00:00:00] i'd like to change that i'd like it to

[00:00:00] fade in

[00:00:00] to add the cross dissolve let's search

[00:00:00] for it in the effects panel

[00:00:00] start typing the word cross dissolve and

[00:00:00] before you're done typing you'll see it

[00:00:00] here

[00:00:00] click and drag it from the effects panel

[00:00:00] to the head of the first clip

[00:00:00] let's play the beginning again

[00:00:00] [Music]

[00:00:00] see much smoother it's fading from

[00:00:00] transparent but of course it shows as

[00:00:00] black let's play it once more

[00:00:00] [Music]

[00:00:00] let's add a different transition to a

[00:00:00] different part of this program

[00:00:00] let's go to time code 1927 that's 19

[00:00:00] seconds and 27 frames you can type those

[00:00:00] numbers here in the timeline 1927

[00:00:00] and the playhead moves there

[00:00:00] let's add the slide transition in here

[00:00:00] select the word we typed before and now

[00:00:00] type the word slide in the search field

[00:00:00] of the effects panel and now you can

[00:00:00] drag the slide transition to place it in

[00:00:00] between these two clips

[00:00:00] now let's zoom in by pressing the plus

[00:00:00] key

[00:00:00] now let's select the transition

[00:00:00] click on the transition itself to select

[00:00:00] it

[00:00:00] in the effect controls panel let's type

[00:00:00] in a new duration of 15 frames type of

[00:00:00] 15 in here

[00:00:00] now let's click on this drop down menu

[00:00:00] and notice that the transition is set to

[00:00:00] center at cut

[00:00:00] there are two other choices which are

[00:00:00] start at cut and end at cut

[00:00:00] let's choose end at cut

[00:00:00] see how the transition changes but what

[00:00:00] do those things mean

[00:00:00] center a cut means that the edit point

[00:00:00] is at the center of the transition

[00:00:00] start at cut means that the edit point

[00:00:00] and the transition start at the same

[00:00:00] point and of course in that cut

[00:00:00] means that the transition will end at

[00:00:00] the edit point

[00:00:00] let's play the transition set an end

[00:00:00] point here just before the transition

[00:00:00] and an out point here

[00:00:00] right after

[00:00:00] now let's loop the playback to loop the

[00:00:00] playback let's adjust the button display

[00:00:00] here in the monitor panel

[00:00:00] click on this little plus sign to open

[00:00:00] the button editor and let's drag this

[00:00:00] loop button to the interface

[00:00:00] we can now close this and enable loop by

[00:00:00] clicking on the icon

[00:00:00] now let's move the playhead to the

[00:00:00] endpoint we set before

[00:00:00] for that click on this icon and now

[00:00:00] let's just play

[00:00:00] [Music]

[00:00:00] now let's delete the in and out points

[00:00:00] for that right click them and choose

[00:00:00] clear in and out

[00:00:00] so we have seen how to add an effect and

[00:00:00] how to add a transition but what happens

[00:00:00] when you want to add the same effect to

[00:00:00] several clips

[00:00:00] that's where adjustment layers come in

[00:00:00] an adjustment layer it's a clip whose

[00:00:00] effects affect all clips under it let's

[00:00:00] try it

[00:00:00] click on the project panel

[00:00:00] and now choose file

[00:00:00] new

[00:00:00] adjustment layer

[00:00:00] accept the default settings and click ok

[00:00:00] now let's drag this adjustment layer

[00:00:00] from the project panel to v3 in the

[00:00:00] timeline let's do a zoom to fit so that

[00:00:00] we can see all the items here in the

[00:00:00] timeline for that press the backslash

[00:00:00] key on your keyboard

[00:00:00] now let's make this adjustment layer

[00:00:00] long enough to cover all the clips with

[00:00:00] the exception of the last one

[00:00:00] now let's add an effect to the

[00:00:00] adjustment layer

[00:00:00] remember this effect will affect all the

[00:00:00] clips under it which in this case is all

[00:00:00] the clips with the exception of the last

[00:00:00] one

[00:00:00] in the effects panel on the search field

[00:00:00] let's type the word legal

[00:00:00] now to add this effect to the adjustment

[00:00:00] layer you could either drag it or

[00:00:00] because that clip is selected you could

[00:00:00] double click the name of the preset in

[00:00:00] here to add it to the clip

[00:00:00] if we toggle the effect on and off in

[00:00:00] the effect controls panel we see the

[00:00:00] changes that this effect is making

[00:00:00] okay let's keep our project panel

[00:00:00] organized so let's drag the adjustment

[00:00:00] layer to the graphics bin

[00:00:00] this brings us to the end of this video
