1 1 S t a rt i n g a n d W o rk i n g w i t h P r o j e c t s A b o u t w o r k i n g w i t h p r o j e c t s A project is a single Adobe Premiere Elements le that combines everything you need to create a movie, including video, audio, effects, and titles.
2 3 S t a r t i n g a n e w p r o j e c t In most cases, you can start a project simply by selecting New Project from the welcome screen or File menu. The default project settings reect the standard video format for your region: NTSC for North America and Japan; P AL for Europe.
2 3 L o c a t i n g m i s s i n g l e s Adobe Premiere Elements doesn’t store original source les in a project—it references the le name and location of each source le when you import it.
4 5 2 C a p t u r i n g V i d e o a n d A d d i n g F i l e s P r e p a r i n g y o u r s y s t e m f o r c a p t u r e Adobe Premiere Elements includes all of the tools necessary to acquire the footage from your DV camcorder so that you can begin assembling your movie.
4 5 C o n n e c t i n g y o u r D V c a m c o r d e r t o y o u r c o m p u t e r T o capture DV video, connect your DV camcorder to your computer by using an IEEE 1394 cable and IEEE 1394 ports.
6 7 C a p t u r i n g v i d e o Use the Capture window to monitor the video and access all of the capture commands. This window includes a video preview area, recording controls, a disk-space indicator , and a timecode display .
6 7 If you are capturing select scenes from the tape, as opposed to capturing the entire tape, capture at least three seconds of additional footage (called handles ) at both the beginning and end of the capture to ensure a margin of error during capture.
8 9 C ap t u ri n g c l i ps w it h o ut u si n g d e v ic e co n t ro l If you do not have a device that can be controlled by Adobe Premiere Elements, you can capture video manually . Y ou can manually operate both the playback device controls and the Capture window controls in Adobe Premiere Elements.
8 9 N av i g at i n g t o a s pe c i c t im e c od e T imecode represents the location of the frames in a video. Camcorders record timecode onto tape. The timecode is based on the number of frames per second (fps) that the camcorder records and the number of frames per second that the video displays upon playback.
10 1 1 F i l e f o r m a t s y o u c a n a d d t o p r o j e c t s Y our choice of footage to include in your movie is not limited to the clips that you capture. Y ou can also use any number of other image, video, or audio les that reside on your computer .
10 1 1 3 E d i t i n g M o v i e s A b o u t e d i t i n g a m o v i e T ypically when editing a movie, you’ll initially create a rough cut—a complete yet relatively crude version of the movie. Y ou arrange the scenes of your movie in the T imeline window .
12 13 W or k i ng w it h th e Mo n i to r wi n d ow Y ou view individual clips or the assembled movie in the Monitor window . The full duration of a clip or movie is represented graphically by the time ruler in the Monitor window . A blue triangle called the current-time indicator marks the location of the current frame within the clip or movie.
12 13 W or k i ng w it h th e T i me l i ne w in d o w Y ou arrange the clips of your movie in the T imeline window . Adobe Premiere Elements lets you customize the T imeline window for your project. Y ou can zoom in and out of the T imeline window , change how the clips appear in the tracks, and resize the tracks and the header area.
14 15 A dj u s ti n g t h e z o o m l e ve l of t he T i me l in e w in d ow The zoom controls in the T imeline window let you change the scale of the time ruler and view the tracks in more or less detail.
14 15 Displaying thumbnail images across the duration of the clip gives you a sense of the progression of the clip. However , do not confuse the boundary between thumbnails as the actual boundary between frames. Think of the thumbnails as a storyboard or sketch of the clip’s content.
16 17 A d d i n g c l i p s t o a m o v i e By default, when you capture video, Adobe Premiere Elements adds the video automatically to the T imeline window .
16 17 Clips after default insertion (top), and after Alt-drag insertion to target track (bottom). Notice second audio track unaffected by Alt-drag insertion.
18 19 T o ov e rl ay a c l ip i n t he m ov ie : Do one of the following: • Ctrl-drag the clip from the Media window or Clip view of the Monitor window to the rst frame you want to overlay . When the pointer changes to the Overlay icon , release the mouse.
18 19 T o ad d c li ps u s in g Cr e at e Sl id e sh ow : 1 (Optional) If you want the media placed at specic points in the movie, add unnumbered markers to the T imeline window .
20 21 Apply Default T ransition Places the default transition (initially set to Cross Dissolve) at each edit (cut). T ransition Duration Species the duration of the transitions when Apply Default Transition is selected. A pop-up menu lets you set the units to frames or seconds.
20 21 3 Add the clip to the movie by using one of the following techniques: • T o insert a clip into a movie, shifting aside clips on other tracks as well, drag the clip to the desired location in the T imeline window .
22 23 T r im m i ng f ra m e s f r om a c l i p There are several ways to build a movie, but all of them involve selecting the portions of source clips you want to include. Y ou rarely use an entire clip. In and Out points dene the rst and last frame of the clip.
22 23 Timeline window during (above) and after (below) trimming. Gray triangle in corner of clip disappears when you trim. For linked clips (video that includes a soundtrack), dragging the edge of one, changes the In or Out points of both clips.
24 25 T r i mm in g f r am es fr o m li n ke d a ud i o a nd v i de o s ep a ra t el y At times, you may want the audio to begin before the video or to extend after the video into the next clip (or vice versa). T rimming linked audio and video separately is called a split edit .
24 25 R et r i ev i n g t r im m e d f r am e s When you trim frames from a clip, you’re actually just setting an In or Out point, which indicates the portion of the original clip that you want in the movie.
26 27 T o re m ov e In a n d Ou t p oi nt s fr o m a so u rc e cl ip : 1 Double-click the source clip in the Media window to open it in the Monitor window . 2 Choose Marker > Clear Clip Marker , and choose an option in the submenu: • In and Out resets both the In and Out point.
26 27 Selecting a range of clips by dragging a marquee R ea r r an g i ng c li p s i n th e T im e li ne wi n do w Y ou can easily rearrange clips in the T imeline window by dragging. By using the same techniques you use to add a clip, you can choose to insert or overlay clips when you move them.
28 29 T o co p y an d pa s te o ne or m or e c li ps : 1 Select one or more clips in the movie, or to select only the audio or video of linked clips, Alt-click the desired clip. 2 Choose Edit > Copy . 3 In the T imeline window , position the current-time indicator at the point you want to paste.
28 29 T o vi e w th e to t al d ur a ti on o f s el ec te d c li ps : 1 Make sure that the Info palette is visible. If not visible, choose Window > Info. 2 In either the Media window or T imeline window , select the desired clips. The Info palette displays the number of items selected and the total duration of those items.
30 31 T o re m ov e a cl i p an d c lo se t he re su lt i ng g ap ( r ip pl e d el et e) : T o remove entire clips, select one or more clips in the movie, and choose Edit > Ripple Delete, or press the Backspace key .
30 31 T o sp l it a s in g le c li p o r mu lt i pl e cl i ps : 1 In the T imeline window , click the Razor tool , and then do one of the following: • T o split a single clip or linked clips, click the point in the track where you want to split the clip or clips.
32 33 T o au t om at ic al l y sy nc h ro ni ze c l ip s th a t we re m o ve d ou t o f sy nc : 1 In the T imeline w indow , righ t-cli ck th e of fset num ber of the clip you want to mo ve or adju st. 2 Choose either Move Into Sync or Slip Into Sync from the context menu that appears.
32 33 4 Drag the edge of the clip, increasing its length to slow it down, or shortening it to speed it up. (When slowing down a clip, you cannot stretch it past the edge of an adjacent clip.
34 35 4 C r e a t i n g D V D s A b o u t c r e a t i n g D V D s DVDs are a great way to share your video with family and friends. Y ou can create auto-play DVDs or menu-based DVDs in Adobe Premiere Elements.
34 35 W or k i ng w it h DV D ma r k er s Once you have nished editing your movie, you can add DVD markers to mark movies, chapters, scenes, and stop points in the DVD. Adobe Premiere Elements creates the DVD menus based on the DVD markers. Note: Do not confuse DVD markers with clip markers and timeline markers.
36 37 U nd e r st a n di n g D V D M a i n M e nu M ar k e rs Y ou manually place DVD Main Menu Markers to indicate the beginning of each movie that you want listed on the main menu of your DVD.
36 37 A dd i n g S c en e Ma r k er s au t o ma t i ca l l y The Auto-Generate DVD Markers command places DVD Scene Markers for you. It gives you three placement options: at each scene, at a specied interval, or at an interval determined by the number of markers you specify .
38 39 A dd i n g D V D m a rk e r s m a nu a l ly When you manually add markers, you can name them as you place them. The name you choose appears as the label for a button in the main menu or scenes menu. On some templates, the menu buttons include thumbnail images of the video to which they are linked.
38 39 6 Click OK. Adobe Premiere Elements adds the marker to the T imeline window underneath the time ruler . A Main Menu Marker is blue; a Scene Marker is green. T o ad d a S to p M ar ke r: 1 In the T imeline window , move the current-time indicator to the end of the video or scene.
40 41 D el e t in g DV D ma r k er s Y ou can delete individual DVD markers or clear all markers from the T imeline window at once. If you have edited your movie since you rst selected DVD menu templates, you may nd it is easier to delete all the markers at once, rather than drag them to new positions.
40 41 C ho o s in g me n u t e m pl a t es f or t he D VD Once you have set the DVD markers for your DVD, you are ready to select the DVD menu template. When choosing a template, don’t worry if the menu doesn’t have enough menu buttons to match each DVD marker in the movie.
42 43 8 (Optional) After you choose a template in the DVD Layout window , you can customize the menu, preview the DVD, or burn the DVD. C us t o mi z i ng t he m en u te m p la t e f o r y o u r p r oj e c t Y ou can change the menu titles, the button text, and the button thumbnail in the DVD Layout window .
42 43 D el e t in g a b u tt o n o n a m e nu After you select the DVD template, you can delete any of the Main Marker or Scene buttons. Because the buttons are tied directly to the DVD markers, deleting a button requires deleting the marker that generated it.
44 45 S wi t c hi n g t o di f f er e n t D V D m e nu t em p l at e s If you decide you do not like your choice of DVD menu, you can easily change to a different template. While you will lose any changes you made to the menu titles, changes you made to button text is not lost.
44 45 C r e a t i n g a n a u t o - p l a y D V D An auto-play DVD contains no menus. Instead, it plays automatically when you insert the DVD into a DVD player . Although it has no menus, you can set DVD markers so that the Next and Previous buttons on the DVD remote control jump to specic points in the movie.
46 47 A b o u t b u r n i n g a D V D If a compatible DVD burner is connected to your computer , you can create a DVD directly from Adobe Premiere Elements. Y ou can play the DVDs that you create in either a TV DVD player or a computer DVD player . Adobe Premiere Elements creates DVDs that conform to DVD-video format.
46 47 B u r n i n g a D V D Once you have previewed your DVD and are satised that it is complete, you are ready to burn the project to a DVD disc. Make sure that the DVD disc you’ve selected is compatible with both your DVD burner and with the DVD player in which you plan to play the DVD.
