Importing & Rendering in Adobe Premiere

Video Transcript

"This is Kyle with Expert Village and we covering some of the very very basics for people who haven't used an editing program. First of all you want to be able to go down and you go to file and go to your import button. There you are going to look for the file that you want. We are going to look for this little clip here, it's Midnight Storm and you just hit open. You pull it in and now it appears in your project box. Now what you want to do is drag it down to the time line and that is the main two places. The top left is your project box and down at the bottom on your time line. You are going to use that feature a lot because you've got to import everything that you want to edit. So whether you shoot video by the tape and you import it by the tape or you just import it one at a time. Like this is a loop. I am going to drop and drag, drop and drag it a few times. It just creates a seamless because it was created like that. Now if you notice it is a little bit jumpy on the preview monitor. It depends on the computer and the settings that you have it on but notice that there is a little red line above the time line window. This little red line is where it needs to be rendered. So you don't want to just hit the enter button and render or you will try to render everything. So you want to double click on the gray line and this bar will come up. Pull the bar right in over the part you want rendered and then hit the enter button. Now when you hit, it will render just that small little clip and you will be able to set back. Rendering is a slow process you will learn in editing. You've got to render everything all the time. Even on real time systems you are constantly rendering effects, files or multiple layers but that 's okay. As soon as it gets through here, then you will be able to preview it in a more smooth fashion as you would see it on your monitor. "
