All language subtitles for 1. Setting Up Your First Amazing Project

Have already Welcome back.

It is Bradgate brownies and dot tv.

We're going to get straight into this and we're going to start our very first project together in Adobe

Premiere Pro Se see.

Now I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2019.

If you're using a previous version that's completely OK.

The lay out is going to be a little bit different but it's going to be pretty much the same stuff.

So let's do this.

How exciting we're going to load up the software first and then we're going to do this together.

And by the end of this little lecture you'll you'll have very good familiarity with the basics of the

layout of the workspace of the software.

So then we're going to go straight into an actual project and we're going to work with a real project

because it's not very fun looking at a blank canvas.

All right so you'll see this screen when your software third first slides up and if you're like it doesn't

look like this.

Don't despair it's pretty much the same in previous versions.

To this just the layout is a little different.

So you'll see here a list of recent projects that you would have worked on.

So in my case I've worked on a bunch of recent projects.

This is really really cool it's like a short cut kind of window where you can select the most recent

project just makes a lot easier to find projects that you worked on.

For example I'm working at part five of my USA travel series.

I just click on that and it just takes me straight to the project.

It's super easy to say we have any open project and then you know try and find that right.

But in this case we're together getting a new project.

When I click on that and this amazing box is going to pop up we're going to put in a name for a project

we call it.

I don't know Brad's travel videos.

OK.

So going to give our project a name and then we're going to give it a location so we're going to go.

So it's like Walda.

And so that's where our project is going to be stored.

Now if we move further down we've got General scratched discs and ingest settings three tabs.

Now we're just starting out an absolute beginner.

We don't really care too much about scratched discs and going through all of this and whatever just

settings you know we'll talk about that later.

Just leave these two tabs alone.

Just stay on general and if you move further down we've got video rendering and playback and you'll

see him render up so we can actually select what render engine we're going to use.

So in my case I've got three options.

In your case you might only have software right.

You might only have one option and that's OK because you only can work with what you have.

So software is the option that some people have and that's fine.

But if you have the option to select g.p acceleration then definitely select GP exhiliration And the

reason being is because.

And real quick because you know it's just going to make working with projects faster.

You know it's going to make rendering faster because you're utilizing the performance capabilities of

your graphics card.

Whereas if you're using software only then things are going to be a little bit slower.

So if you can see like g.p acceleration we move further down we've got three options here.

Time code or audio samples and.

They are by default These are selected timecode just leave these as they are timecode audio samples

and then remain on DV and then click OK and then we're going to move into the workspaces are going to

spend like a couple of minutes talking about the workspaces and then we're going to go into a real project

because I remember you know when I first loaded up the software years ago I was like What do I do this

is confusing like what does what do I do.

What do I do.

Just very very basically.

First and foremost if you're a liar it doesn't look like what you're seeing right now on your screen.

Then go up here go to window workspaces and click on editing and when you click on editing it's going

to restore your life out to the editing format that Adobe has stored.

So in my case this is know what we have we have four major boxes and we'll talk about what those boxes

are.

But then what happens is when you start moving things around for example you know to say for example

we move this window over here and this window over there and then we like what are we.

You know this is confusing what have I done.

Then you go window workspaces and then you go to where it says reset to say layout and then it takes

you back to where you started.

OK.

So what are these windows.

Very quickly.

So we've got four major Windows.

And when you click on them a little blue box appears around a window it just tells you that that's the

current window that you're working in.

So if you click down here blue box down here blue box and you can adjust these windows by just moving

your cursor in between the two boxes if you want to make one box wider or narrower.

You can do that.

You can do this right.

This will make much more sense to you with a real project right just like that.

Now on the top left hand corner we've got our big first major window which is the source monitor box.

Now it says up here source right.

So smart it to box.

Here we go to our program window here says program up here down the bottom left project window here.

This is where we're going to be importing our video is your photos all music and all that kind of stuff.

Our GoPro footage and drone footage and all that kind of amazing stuff is all going to go down in here

to double click on this.

It's going to bring up this little window and we can just import what we want.

So I'm like OK well I want to import on this one.

So I click on that.

We'll talk about importing files later in more detail.

But this is pretty much it.

So then we've got like you know a little video clip here.

And if I double click on this then it's going to show up in the source monitor box.

So then I can just scrub this long just like that and I can literally just see what's going on here

in this clip right now we've got our timeline window over here just in here.

Now what I can do is I can drag this clip into the timeline window and it's going to create a nice little

time on for us.

Now I'm not going to sit here and go all this.

So this is this does this and this does that.

And this one does this.

And then you got the pen tool and then the top two.

And then you've got this I mean I'm not going to bore you like that we're going to get to a real project

and we're going to talk about this in a practical sense.

But real quick just to recap with our time on window program window as small as a box.

Now project here.

And then before I close off this you can actually if you have a look at these windows here for example

top left hand corner we get our source monitor box.

We've got these tabs here and we can actually click on these tabs and bring up other options.

So we have an audio clip mix here.

And you know whatever and we can click on them and change them back to source.

OK.

Or we can shift the order like that.

OK.

And over time you play around with it and you will have your own preferences and whatever else.

But you can if you moved and he can do the same thing.

So you can go Media Browser libraries info blah blah blah.

And if you click on the two little arrows and you have the same options here as well click on the original

project window like that.

OK.

So one other thing I want to show you this happens a lot of people when they first got out.

This happened to me when I first started out and it took me a long time to figure out how to undo that

damage.

You could actually move these windows around.

Now obviously we can resize them we talked about that pretty straight forward.

You want to make things bigger smaller.

You want to make it so you have a very big area to work in.

Because this is the area that are going to be working on your video right in here.

You want to make it as big as possible and have a very small monitor program monitor screen where you

want to make it super big because you want to see all the details just like that.

Well what you can do is you can actually move these boxes around with these windows around.

So if you click on for example the project window here you can click on that and drag it somewhere else

to see where it's shaded.

Well that's where you can move it to.

So if we go Oh look I want to drop it here.

This is what happens.

So now a project window has moved up here.

Right.

And then if we're like you able and what the effects controls to be here.

All right.

That's really messed up.

And if want the clip makes it to be here and I want the I want the audio monitor box on.

So just say look at this thing.

No no I don't want this.

I hate this.

Take me back to where I was then.

All I need to do is get a window workspaces window workspaces and then you can go to

reset to save lay out it'll take you back to the beginning.

Now you might go oh great I actually want to create my workspace.

You might want to customize it.

You might go with that.

They're there that I'm just completely messing this up there they're great.

This is amazing.

I love this.

I want to save this until you know until the day I retire from using the software you know window workspaces

window workspaces and then you click on Save As new workspace.

You click on that and you'll go to my amazing new workspace just like that.

Whoops there we go.

Can't spell Penta.

So now I've saved that specific layout.

So if I have a friend or someone using my software but I like it different to this then I can just revert

back to mine my lay out what I've got my laptop back for example.

So in my case I have got my own workspace up here Brads or some other explosive I click on this you'll

see exactly how I have my layout.

That's how I like my layout.

Right.

And everyone's different.

You know there's no right or wrong way.

You just have it the way you want it.

I like to have like my Kulas stuff up here in central graphics and this is how I like it.

Yeah.

So what you can do is you can play around with this in your own time.

We're going to go straight to a real project and play with a real project in the next lesson.
