Welcome back for the second of three installments on Adobe Premiere!
For the second session, I looked at video layering, alternate cutting methods, rearranging clips, creating background textures, and censoring effects.
In the video laying, I had a clip of my daughter Grace singing about our dog Sandy. So I inserted her video clip in layer 1, found the clip of the dog, and inserted the section I wanted in video layer 2. Doing this obscured the video of Grace and replaced it with the video of the dog, but the audio of her singing remained.
The section on making alternate cuts was useful because it showed how to make a second or even third alternate video edit. This would be helpful when you want to compare different edits and effects, but don't want to start over a new project. I think this will be handy! You can see in my screenshot that I copied sequence 6 and renamed it sequence 7.
The rearranging clips in the timeline was very useful because it showed my the keyboard commands. Cmd + dragging and moving, moves my clip and inserts it into a new place, without replacing existing text. Cmd+Opt = reordering clips, and of course you can just move clips into unused video layers to move them around. This may be the easiest and quickest way to rearrange my clips in the timeline if needed.
In the effects area, I was a little frustrated because what he was showing in the tutorial didn't exist in my version of Premiere. He was showing how to create different backgrounds using the video effect - generate. This folder did not exist in my version. He showed you can make a black video and insert it into your timeline, and apply this generate effect onto it to create a new background. This looks like it would be handy...
The last effect I looked at in this session was called censor editing. This is used to blur out an object or in this case a face. It showed how to use the effect called: 8-point garbage effect. You simply use your points to only show what you want to mask out, copy your video clip into layer 2, and apply this effect to the clip in layer 2. Next you find the effect of blurring and apply it to the masked effect in the second layer. I thought doing something like this would be much harder!
