Good presentation ! I would like to put THE END at the end of my video. First by rolling and the stopping in the middle of the screen. I upgraded to Pr 2023 recently. In CS6 , it was easy...Can you guide me ??
I have to check the latest update, but I don't believe Premiere can do that. The only way to do it would be to do a credit roll, and then put "the end" on a separate still title card.
I was going to do an outdoor still photo shoot with my Canon R6 on a hot evening and the camera froze up. No viewing on the rear screen and no response from pressing any buttons. Called Canon repair and they suggested that I send it in for repair. After not hearing from them, I got through to a phone support person who found my camera's repair order (I didn't know if it safely arrived). All they would tell me is that I need to pay $425 so that a technician could be assigned. I had no choice but to pay over the phone. A side note. In doing wedding photography for years (many hot days) using 5D series bodies, I never had a camera melt down.
i had some issues with editing recently because of my set-up and have finally learnt the way to protect myself from those issues thanks to this video! thanks.
2 years out from your post, but hopefully you're still considering. I'm shooting music camp performance videos and using both Osmo action cameras and my Sony AR7IV. The color on the Sony is much less warm than that on the Osmos. How do I get Premiere Pro to match the color settings. Other videos on the subject have confused me, so I'm hoping you can simplify.
If you find something white in both videos, and use the eyedropper in the Lumetri color panel, that will get both of them pretty close. More info here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Su6kk_ZBBgc.htmlsi=vxejxq0UJI2vqoKo
Nobody explain like the way you explain it. I bought my camera 4 months before, but I could know the option to turn on and off easily in this way today only. 😂. Thank you so much. Excellent. All the RU-vidrs are talking bla bla bla for half an hour without answer.
Does this model allow for active line monitoring? It seems prudent to actively monitor what is being recorded. I've had some avoidable and nasty surprises only discovered during review.
The length of time it takes the H4N to boot is dependent on the size and type of SD card installed. No SD card - super quick. Slow large SD card - it takes minutes.
This is literally one of the best tutorials I've watched. I'm so glad I found it right before I started my video editing journey. This is going to save me SO much time and frustration. Thank you!
What is the bar that turns green as it plays back? Becuase I have an audio file in my composition that I simply want to match words to; but the playback doesnt play across the whole song file, it only plays 20-30 seconds and stops. How do I fix this so that the playback plays either until the end of the composition(which is the end of the song) or until I press stop so I can make an edit or something ?

I have the function on a shortcut to IMMEDIATLY turn it off when opening a new timeline or project. It´s pretty annoying as a default, but when it comes to grading it can be usefull. I don´t want to jump back and forth with my curser between timeline and Lumetri. So by turning it on, I can jump from clip to clip with a shortcut und the playhead selects the clip to work on the next without taking the eyes off of the lumetri window.
I'm undertaking my first documentary on a tribute artist to a very famous country singer. It focuses on the artist's achievements, from being a youngster to winning a European music award in 2023. Your 3 stages don't fit as you've described. I've live footage of performances, two long interviews, and 3 short ones, is there a format to follow other than the 3 stages?
OMG Merie it was awesome ! Not just a beautiful lady but very nice and smart ! I’m improving my editing skills in premier pro and it came sooo handy !! THANKS 🙏🏼
