Media artist Dave Gare used Adobe Premiere as a "sketch pad" to get ajump-start on his Adobe After Effects work. "It's easier to sketch out howyou want things to work in Premiere," he says. In Premiere, he assembledthe raw footage and marked where effects should appear. The timelinemarkers are preserved when the file is imported into After Effects, so it'seasy to animate effects to the imported markers. Dave created a radiowave effect, but you can use a similar process to create all kinds of effects.
S e t a t im e lin e m a r k e r i n P r e m i e r e .Assemble your footage in Premiere, and then move the edit line marker inthe timeline to the point where you want the animation to begin. ChooseTimeline > Set Timeline Marker > Unnumbered and double-click the newtimeline marker. In the Markers dialog box, enter a name in the Commentsfield so that you can identify the marker easily in After Effects.
You can also use the Markers dialog box to enter a title name (if you'recreating a DVD or a QuickTime file that uses chapters) or a Web link. Theinformation will travel with the time marker into your After Effects project.Or you can add or edit the information in After Effects.

Project window. After Effects opens the Timeline window, where it displayseach clip on its own layer, with timeline markers on a separate layer.
You can also import a Premiere project file by dragging it into the Projectwindow in After Effects.

Create timely video effects: Tutorial
r e a t e t im e l y v id e o e ffe c t s p a g e
Ap p l y a n e f f e c t .Use the Effects palette to locate and apply an effect quickly: ChooseWindow > Effects to display the palette. Type the name of the effect youwant, or a partial name (for example, if you want to apply the RadioWaves effect, type "waves" here). After Effects refines your choices as youtype. When you see the effect you want, drag it to the layer you're
applying it to.
For some effects, such as the Radio Waves effect Dave used, it's easiest tocreate a new layer that begins at the timeline marker, and apply the effectto it. (He chose Layer > New > Solid, then clicked Make Comp Size so thatthe new layer was the same size as the composition. The solid layerbecame transparent when Dave added the Radio Wave effect.) Someeffects need to be applied directly to footage in your composition, or to anadjustment layer. In those cases, use the timeline marker as a guide forkeyframing the effect's attributes. See the After Effects user guide andOnline help for more information about applying effects.

Cu s t o m iz e t h e e f fe c t .Adjust the settings for your effect in the Effect Controls palette. You canalso customize an effect by scrubbing the hot-text values in the Timelinewindow, but the Effect Controls palette gives you easier accessespeciallyuseful when you're working with complex effects such as Radio Waves,which include dozens of options and parameters.
P r e v i e w t h e e f fe c t .Click the Play button in the Time Controls palette, or scrub the time rulerto preview the effect.
It's useful to preview a composition several times as you fine-tune aneffect. The RAM Preview feature lets you see the results immediately,without needing to wait for it to render.

There are two ways to control fading a clip. Which one you use depends on
which track holds that clip. If the clip is in the 1A and 1B Video track,
transitions easily take care of the job.
But when the clip is in a superimpose track, such as Video 2 or higher, you
can't use transitions. In those cases, use transparency to achieve the same
effect. This tip tells you how it's done.
In our example, we already have some clips and transitions set up in the
Video 1A and 1B tracks, so we don't have to do any more work on those.
We have also superimposed another clip, placing it on the Video 2 track.
We're going to work just in the Video 2 track to make it fade in and fade out
repeatedly over time.
1. Set up your clips.
Open your project and set it up with at least one clip superimposed (in
Video 2 track or higher) over another clip.

3. Add another control handle.
Still in the Timeline, click anywhere along the fade line to create another
handle, which appears as another small red square.
4. Make the text fade in from zero.
Move the pointer over the first control handle on the fade line, at the far left
end, until it turns into a pointing finger icon. Drag the handle straight down
to the lower edge of the track, which changes the opacity to 0%. Do not
drag the control handle outside of the track, because this removes it from
the fade line.
For a sneak peek at the results, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac
OS) and scrub.
5. Add more control handles.
Click in different places along the fade line to add several more control
handles. Add as many as you want, to suit your project. If you change your
mind and want to remove a handle, drag the handle outside the upper or
lower margins of the track.

6. Adjust transparency levels.
Drag the new control handles to change their opacity levels. You can also
drag the handles left and right to reposition them, if needed.
Tip: To set a precise intermediate opacity level, hold down Shift as you
drag a handle. A small window appears, showing you the exact percentage
of opacity. In this case, dragging below or above the track does not remove
the handle from the fade line.
7. Preview the clip.
Hold down Alt (Windows) or (Option) Mac OS) as you scrub across the
Timeline ruler.
Congratulations! You just added another technique to your collection of
skills, which you can use to create black fade-in/fade-out transitions and
other cool effects. For more ideas on how to use these techniques with
video, still, and audio clips, see the Adobe Premiere Classroom in a
Book.

Edit clips before the rough cut: Tutorial
d it c lip s b e fo r e t h e r o u g h c u t p a g e : 1 2 3
You can trim unwanted frames from your clips before you add them to the
Timeline. This is a great time-saver if you plan to use multiple instances of
the same clip. When you add new copies to the Timeline, all the In and Out
points are the same as the ones for the original, trimmed copy .
1. Open the clip.
In the Project window, find the clip you want to edit and drag its icon to the
Source view in the Monitor window.
Tip: If you don't see the Monitor window, choose Window > Monitor.
2. Locate a good starting point.
Advance the clip until you locate the first frame you want to appear, using
any method:

plit the screen to show two clips: Tutorial
p lit t h e s c r e e n t o s h o w t w o c lip s p a g e : 1 2 3
Want to divide the screen to show two clips side by side? Or to show a
movie within your movie? You can use transparency settings in Adobe
Premiereto create these results. Try out this technique with any two clips
you have handy.
1. Superimpose one clip over the other.
Drag one clip from the Project window to the Video 1 track in the Timeline
and another clip to the Video 2 track (or higher). In this example, we're
working with clips on the Video 1 and Video 2 tracks.
Tip: If your Timeline is in A/B Editing view, don't try to use the Video 1B
track for the second clip. You'll use that track when you want to achieve
other effects, such as creating interesting transitions between clips.
2. Preview the clips.

Hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you scrub (drag through
the Timeline ruler). As you scrub, watch the combined clips, video effects,
and transparencies in the Monitor window Program view. However, in this
example, you see only the clip in Video 2, because it completely blocks the
Video 1 clip.
Tip: If you want to preview the Video 1 track, click the eye icon in the Video
2 track to hide that clip. Just remember to make the Video 2 track visible
again before continuing.

4. Finish adjusting the superimposed clip.
Drag the bottom right point in the Sample area about halfway up the right
edge of the frame. Now the entire bottom half of the clip is hidden.
5. Preview the transparency effect.
Still in the Transparency Settings dialog box, click the page peel icon under
the Sample area. The Video 1 track now appears in the bottom half of the
screen. Click OK.

Arrange clips on a storyboard: Tutorial
Ar r a n g e c lip s o n a s t o r y b o a r d p a g e : 1 2
A storyboard makes it easy to visualize your movie plan before you start
shooting. The AdobePremiere 6.0 storyboard serves a similar purpose,
making it easy to arrange your film clips before you do the fine-tuning.
When your storyboard work is complete, it takes just one simple step to
either transfer the entire storyboard contents to the Timeline or export it to
video.
1. Create a storyboard and add clips.
Open a project that has clips in the Project window, and choose File > New
> Storyboard. Select clip icons from the Project window and drag them into
the Storyboard window.

Arrange clips on a storyboard: Tutorial
Arrows point from each clip to the clip that follows it. Instead of an arrow, a
circled X marks the final clip in the storyboard.
Tip: To move multiple clips, use Shift+click, Ctrl+click (Windows), or
Command+click (Mac OS) to select individual files.
2. Change the Storyboard view.
Choose Window > Window Options > Storyboard Window Options and
select the icon size you want to use. Click OK.
The amount of information that appears with the icons varies with icon size.
Larger icons show the length of the clip and any comments you typed in
the Project window.

you are satisfied with the order, choose File > Save, type a name, and
save your storyboard in any convenient folder.
4. Preview and edit individual clips.
In the Storyboard window, double-click the icon for one of the clips to open
a Clip window. Use the controls in this window to play, move frame by
frame, work with markers, set In and Out points, and so forth.
When you finish, choose File > Save.
At this point, your work on this movie sequence is about half done, even
before you commit the clips to the Timeline.
5. Move the clips to the Timeline.

Arrange clips on a storyboard: Tutorial
Choose Project > Automate to Timeline to open the Automate to Timeline
dialog box. Select the options that you want, and then click OK.
We used the default settings in our example:
Contents: Whole Bin (to import all clips on the Storyboard, but not all clips
in the Project window bin)
Placement: Sequentially
Insert At: Beginning
Clip Overlap: 15 frames
Use Default Transition: selected
Perform Audio Cross Fade and Ignore Audio: not selected
Tip: You can also export to video directly from the Storyboard window. To
do this, select the Storyboard window. Choose File > Export Timeline >
Print to Video, and select options in the Print to Video dialog box. This
prints a video of the clips that are in the Storyboard but does not includeany other clips that may be in the Timeline.
6. Preview your project.
Press Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you scrub (drag along the
Timeline ruler).
Congratulations! You've just learned a slick technique for visualizing yourmovie before making your first rough cut.

Reversing Transitions: Tutorial
R e v e r s i n g Tr a n s it io n s p a g e : 1 2
Reversing the order or the direction of clips in a transition can multiply the
number of creative ways you can use a transition. All you need to recreate this
sophisticated sequence is an Adobe Premiereproject containing multiple
clips and a transition applied to them.
We recommend that you use the A/B Editing workspace for this tutorial (choose
Window > Workspace > A/B Editing) so that you can see the transitions between
the Video 1A and 1B tracks more clearly.
1. Reverse the track order of a transition.
First, preview the existing transition by pressing Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac
OS) as you drag the edit line.
Select the transition in the Timeline and choose Edit > Copy. Click in the empty
area after the transition and choose Edit > Paste. Click the new transition's Track
Selector to make the arrow point up.
In this example, which uses the Sliding Bands transition, making the second
transition's track selector point up causes the transition to start with the clip on
Video 1B and end with the clip on Video 1A. That is, the Video 1A clip changes
into the Video 1B clip and then back to the Video 1A clip.
Tip: If you cannot see the transition's Track Selector arrow, select a smaller unit
from the Time Units pop-up menu at the lower left of the Timeline window.

Reversing Transitions: Tutorial
2. Reverse the direction of a transition.
Click in the empty area after the transition and choose Edit > Paste. Double-click
the third instance of the transition; in the dialog box that appears, click the
Forward/Reverse Selector to the right of the animated icon. Then click OK.
Clicking the Forward/Reverse Selector reverses the direction in which the
transition progresses.
Tip: Other controls are available near the animated icon in the dialog box. The
four triangles are Edge Selectors that determine the edges the transition will use.
The Anti-Aliasing selector to the lower right of the animated icon softens the
edges of a transition. While these controls aren't necessary for this tip, you can
experiment with them on your own.

3. Complete the transition sequence.
Select the third instance of the transition and choose Edit > Copy. Click in the
empty area after the transition and choose Edit > Paste. Click the fourth
transition's Track Selector to make the arrow point up.
The completed set of four transitions create the following sequence: Video 1A to
Video 1B to Video 1A with the Sliding Bands transition going to the right, then
Video 1A to Video 1B to Video 1A with the Sliding Bands transition going to the
left.
4. Preview the completed effect.
Press Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you drag along the time ruler.
Pressing Alt or Option previews both the clips and the transitions. For more
information about transitions, see the Adobe Premiere Classroom in a Book.
Tip: You can enhance your work further by combining this technique with other
features. For example, in the final version of this project we applied the Color
Balance filter to change the color of the eye clip.
