There are principally two foremost methods to edit video. You both begin with an empty timeline and add clips after setting out and in factors within the supply monitor. Or you throw a number of clips within the timeline, and trim off the undesirable components utilizing prime and tail modifying within the timeline.
Top and tail modifying is quicker, since you carry out fewer operations on each clip.
How to prime and tail edit in Premiere Pro
First, choose the clips you want, and add them to the timeline. I like to recommend that you just do that utilizing the storyboarding method I defined in one other insider tip. (Link to the tip on storyboarding).
Place the playhead in the beginning of the primary clip, and relaxation three fingers in your proper hand on the J, Okay, and L keys, and two fingers in your left hand on the Q and W keys.
Play again and navigate your timeline utilizing the J, Okay, and L keys. Park the playhead the place you need the in level of a clip and hit Q to trim off the highest. Park the playhead the place you need the out level of a clip and hit W to trim off the tail. Just one keyboard hit per operation!
Rinse and repeat till all clips have been trimmed.
