-TIMELINE-[THE (PREMIERE PRO) PANEL GROUP]

Video tracks play as a stack, so a clip on an upper video track will appear in front of a clip on a lower video track when you play the sequence in the Program Monitor

Audio tracks play together, so you can create a soundtrack mix by positioning multiple audio clips on different tracks.

You can enable and disable individual tracks when you want to work on a particular part of your sequence

Selection is important in the Timeline panel, so if things aren’t working out as expected, double-check that you have the right clip selected

There are several tools to use in the Timeline and Program Monitor panels, but you will generally use the Selection tool, which is at the top of the Tools panel

*TIMELINE FUNCTIONS* –>

*BUILD SEQUENCES*

*APPLY ‘SPECIAL FX’*

*CHANGE ‘SOUNDTRACK’*

*USING ‘NUMERIC KEYPAD’ IN ‘APP TIME-LINE PANEL’*

*when no ‘clip’ is selected, changes will be reflected in the ‘playhead’*

*on your ‘numeric keypad’, press the ‘plus sign’*

Select multiple clips by clicking them while holding down the Shift key.

Use the Track Select Forward tool to select every clip from where you click to the end of the sequence.

Undo your changes by pressing Control+Z (Windows) or Command+Z (macOS)

Move clips

To change the order of clips in your sequence, drag a clip to a new position, leaving a gap and overwriting whatever is there when you drop it.

Hold Control (Windows) or Command (macOS) while dragging a clip to insert the clip at its new location and push existing clips to the right.

To select just the video or audio part of a linked clip, right-click the clip and choose Unlink.

You can turn video and audio linking off or on for the whole sequence by clicking the Linked Selection button at the top left of the Timeline panel.

Use the Razor tool to divide a clip into 2 pieces you can move separately.

You can extend or shorten the part of the clip included in the sequence, as long as there is footage available in the original clip.

Drag the ends of clips as if you were resizing a window to extend or shorten them by trimming.

You won’t be able to trim a clip over an adjacent clip.

Use the Ripple Edit tool to trim clips without leaving a gap or to push adjacent clips later in the sequence.

Use the Rolling Edit tool to adjust the timing of an edit between two clips, extending one clip by the same amount you shorten the other.

Remember to choose the Selection tool when you have finished using the trimming tools

Make sure clips remain in sync

To lock tracks, click the padlock icon on the track.

No changes can be made to tracks that are locked.

To change the playback speed, or precisely adjust the duration of a clip in a sequence, right-click the clip and choose Speed/Duration.

In the Clip Speed/Duration dialog box, choose a new playback speed as a percentage, and choose a Time Interpolation option

This sets the way Premiere Pro renders the new playback speed:

Frame Sampling

gives the best playback performance but not the smoothest playback

Frame Blending

is better quality but takes more work for your computer to play

Optical Flow is the highest quality

For this option to play back in real time, your computer will need to pre-process the appearance of the video at the new speed.

Pre-processing is called ‘rendering’

If you see a red line along the top of the Timeline panel, you will probably need to render the sequence to preview that part of your sequence smoothly.

This doesn’t affect your final output, just your previews.

To render effects in your sequence, make sure the Timeline panel is active (with the blue outline) and choose Sequence > Render Effects In to Out.

In the Tools panel, click and hold your mouse button on the Ripple Edit tool to display the Rate Stretch tool.

The Rate Stretch tool allows you to trim clips to change the playback speed — perfect for exactly filling a gap with a clip.

Trim with the Rate Stretch tool by dragging the ends of clips,

and the playback speed will change by exactly the amount needed to achieve the new playback duration.

Choose the Selection tool when you have finished working with the ‘rate stretch tool’

(in ‘timeline panel’, right-click on a clip and choose ‘speed/duration’)

(by default the speed is 100%)

(reduce speed by half by inserting 50%)

(then in bottom dropdown menu, select “ripple edit – shift trailing clips)
