Video Editing with Premiere Pro - from Beginner to YouTuber

via Skillshare

Overview

In this class, you'll learn everything you need to get started with Adobe Premiere Pro, and how to edit like a YouTuber. We'll work together to create a YouTube-style video following a 3-part workflow.

  1. Footage review - We lay our footage out into a timeline to allow us to analyse and see what potential ways we can construct our video. And we'll learn a tonne of keyboard shortcuts on the way to make the process as efficient as possible. 
  2. Final composition - With both a-roll and b-roll loosely clipped and laid out in front of us, we make a plan to create a compelling and engaging video that will do well on YouTube.
  3. Cherry on top - We'll add background music to sound more pro, video and audio effects & colour grading to make our video complete!

If you're a complete beginner to Premiere Pro, we'll ease you in with the basic fundamentals before getting fancy with effects and keyframe animations.
