Part One
1. Transitions (16 min.) There are lots of 'em, not just a dissolve. We'll
play with a few, and see how to adjust the setttings for duration,
borders, fill-color, etc.
2. Motion (15 min.) Make
text or images spin around in circles, do somersaults, or glide
across the screen with the greatest of ease. Any direction.
Any shape or color.
3. Opacity (5 min.) Your
clips can be made transparent, so we can "see through them"
to other layers on the video tracks below.
Part Two
1. Title Designer (16 min.) You can make titles, graphics, rolling credits. This is a sophisticated and
elaborate tool in Premiere Pro that comes with a wide range of
templates to help you create professional layouts and designs.
2. Project
Settings, Device Control (7 min.) Some more of the technical
stuff. Don't really want to learn about it. Have
to.
3. Capture Window (8 min.) Transferring your footage
from camera to computer used to be a monumental task. Premiere's
capture window makes it easy to manually record clips to your
hard drive (although there are several "automated methods"
you can also use).
4. Project Two (14 min.) We'll
put together a 15 second opening for a lecture/seminar, using
motion, video effects, transitions, and titles. This is the fun
part. This is why we're here.
Part Three
1. Sequences (3 min.) In
earlier versions of Premiere, we were limited to one Timeline
per project. Now we can have multiple Timelines, or Sequences,
in any project -- which makes it much easier to manage the long
ones. Then bring them all together when you're ready to
play the finished scene.
2. Add
Tracks, Slow Motion, Markers (10
min.) There's
no shortage of video or audio tracks. Although you won't
need more than five or ten in most cases, there are a hundred
of them at your disposal. Also, we check out slow-motion
capabilities, and Markers.
3. Record Audio (10 min.) How can you record music
or sound effects from a CD into Premiere? Well, first you
have to convert it to another format. Here's a few ways
to do it.
4. Project
Three (25 min.) This one goes on for awhile, over an hour (it's continued
on the next disc).
