As this is a new project, click on the ‘new project’ button.

After Premiere has loaded it will ask for the name of the project as well as information regarding the quality of the video and where the video will be saved.

To upload media for the project, click on the “Get Media” button.

It is easier to download media when it is already saved on the computer.

Select the file(s) you want to use in this animation/video and click on ‘open’.

Once uploading is complete, the selected file(s) will appear under “Project”.

Drag the clip from the project board to the “sceneline”.

To select the time at which your video/animation starts, drag the “in-point/marker” to the time that you want the file to start playing.

You can also choose the time at which the film ends by dragging the “end-point/marker” in towards the clip.

If you want to divide the clip into to two separate clips, the “split clip” tool can be used to divide the clip into two at the preferred time.

If you click the “properties” button, a list of effects terminology will appear.

Motion controls the movement within the clip frame, i.e. the size of the frame (zoom in and zoom out) and how the frame moves (left, right, diagonal, etc.) This is not to be confused with the actual subjects in the clip.

Opacity controls the contrast of picture and is useful for Fade Ins and Outs, especially when creating a stop-frame-animation where a lot of pictures are involved and the option of clicking on the “fade in’ button, is not possible.

Clip Volume sounds self-explanatory, however, this function is particularly useful when an individual clip needs to be louder/softer than the rest. This function cannot just be achieved by changing the main video volume.

Balance affects the clarity of subjects/objects in the image/video, making certain parts blurry/hazy and other clear.

Removing an eye from one of the effects will hide the effect and it will no longer be visible on the clip/image.

Don’t forget to continuously save your

work!
