    Also, the project file contains the data from all of your editing decisions, such as the In and Out points for trimmed clips and the parameters for each special effect. Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 creates a folder on your hard disk at the start of each new project.

  • Page 28: Open A Project

    Adobe Premiere Pro for Windows can open project files created with earlier versions of Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Premiere 6.x. You can open only one project at a time. To transfer the contents of one project into another, use the Import command.
  • Page 29 Offline All Note: Do not delete source files while you are using them as clips in an Adobe Premiere Pro project unless they were captured using device control and you plan to recapture them. After you deliver the final movie, you can delete source files.
  • Page 30 Realtime Playback, Export, 24P Conversion Method, and Desktop Display Mode options. You can also choose whether to disable video output when Adobe Premiere Pro is in the background, and whether to enable aspect ratio correction on external devices.
  • Page 31 (See scanning” on page 125) Adobe Premiere Pro can display any of several formats of timecode. You may want to see Display Format (Video) the project’s timecode in a film format, for example, if you are editing footage captured from film; or in simple frame numbers if your assets were imported from an animation program.
  • Page 32 Desktop editing mode for the web or for some presentation software. If your project will contain high-bit-depth assets generated by programs such as Adobe Photoshop, or high-definition camcorders, select Maximum Bit Depth to make Adobe Premiere Pro make use of all the color information in those assets when processing effects or gener- ating preview files.
  • Page 33 Uses still images efficiently in sequences. For example, if a still image has a duration of 2 seconds in Optimize Stills a project set to 30 fps, Adobe Premiere Pro creates one 2-second frame instead of 60 frames at 1/30 of a second each. Deselect this option if sequences exhibit playback problems when displaying still images.

  • Page 34: Aspect Ratios

    You set the frame and pixel aspect ratios for an Adobe Premiere Pro project when you create it. Once they are set, you cannot change them for that project. You can, however, use assets created with different aspect ratios in that project.
  • Page 35 16:9 frame behind the narrower 4:3 frame so that important action is visible in the 4:3 frame (called pan & scan). In Adobe Premiere Pro, you can implement either technique by using Motion effect properties such as Position and Scale.
  • Page 36 0.9 (nonsquare). DV pixels, which are always rectangular, are vertically oriented in systems producing NTSC video and horizontally oriented in systems producing PAL video. Adobe Premiere Pro displays a clip’s pixel aspect ratio next to the clip’s image thumbnail in the Project panel.
  • Page 37 You can use the Scale control to set the size of the asset’s frame within the project’s frame. However, to preserve the asset’s frame aspect ratio, Adobe Premiere Pro often needs either to crop the asset or to frame it within black bars.
  • Page 38 The project settings preset you choose when you create a project sets the frame and pixel aspect ratios for the project. You can’t change these after you save the project file, but you can change the pixel aspect ratio that Adobe Premiere Pro assumes for individual assets.

  • Page 39: Special Projects

    When you are done editing, you can use the Adobe Media Encoder to export the 24p movie from Adobe Premiere Pro to Adobe Encore CS3. You can open it in Encore, author your DVD, then master and burn the project as a 24p MPEG-2 stream.

  • Page 41 Disable 24p pulldown to simulate film-video transfer By default, Adobe Premiere Pro uses a 24p pulldown scheme to playback 24p DV footage at 29.97 fps in a project based on one of the NTSC presets. You can disable the pulldown scheme to give your movie the look of a film trans- ferred to video or broadcast, without frame interpolation.
  • Page 42 You can edit widescreen footage shot in DV, HDV, or HD formats. To display and play back widescreen assets correctly, you must set your project settings to accomodate widescreen assets. When you are done editing your movie, use Adobe Media Encoder to output 3GP files with the correct audio and video characteristics for the target device.

  • Page 43: Workflows

    Workflows Basic workflow Whether you use Adobe Premiere Pro to edit video for broadcast, DVD, or the web, you’re likely to follow a similar workflow. For a video about the basic workflow, see www.adobe.com/go/vid0230. 1. Shoot video with Adobe OnLocation Adjust the video signal coming from your camcorder before you shoot, and then shoot directly to your hard drive with Adobe OnLocation, the signal monitoring application bundled with Adobe Premiere Pro.

In the Project panel you can label, categorize, and group footage into bins to keep a complex project organized. You can open multiple bins simultaneously, each in its own panel, or you can nest bins, one inside another.
  • Page 46 5. Add titles Using the Adobe Premiere Pro full-featured Titler, create stylish still titles, title rolls, or title crawls that you can easily superimpose over video. If you prefer, you can modify any of a wide range of provided title templates. As with any clip, you can edit, fade, animate, or add effects to the titles in a sequence.
  • Page 47 ADOBE PREMIERE PRO CS3 User Guide Titler 6. Add transitions and effects The Effects panel includes an extensive list of transitions and effects you can apply to clips in a sequence. You can adjust these effects, as well as a clip’s motion, opacity, and Variable Rate Stretch using the Effect Controls panel. The Effect Controls panel also lets you animate a clip’s properties using traditional keyframing techniques.
  • Page 48 For track-based audio adjustments, the Audio Mixer faithfully emulates a full-featured audio mixing board, complete with fade and pan sliders, sends, and effects. Adobe Premiere Pro saves your adjustments in real time, on the fly. With a supported sound card, you can record audio through the sound mixer, or mix audio for 5.1 surround sound.
  • Page 49 9. Export Deliver your edited sequence in the medium of your choice: tape, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, or movie file. Using the Adobe Media Encoder, you can customize the settings for MPEG2, MPEG4, Adobe Flash Video, and other codecs, to the needs of your viewing audience.

  • Page 50: Cross-Platform Workflow

    You can burn the project to disc, or you can save it to a DVD image file, a set of DVD folders, or DVD master files on DLT tape. Alternately, you can export a DVD-compliant MPEG-2 file from Adobe Premiere Pro that you can use to author a DVD in most DVD-authoring applications.

  • Page 53: Chapter 4: Setting Up, And Bringing In Assets

    About setting up your system To use the full range of features in Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, you’ll probably need to connect additional equipment to your computer. Most editing workflows, for example, require connections with a camcorder or VTR, a television monitor, and sometimes a device controller.
  • Page 54 Start Adobe Premiere Pro, and, on the Welcome screen, click New Project. In the Load Preset panel of the New Project dialog box, select the DV or HDV preset that matches the format of your source footage. Browse to a location, and type a name for the project file. Then click OK.
  • Page 55 In the Load Preset panel of the New Project dialog box, select the SDI or component preset that matches the format of your source footage. Adobe Premiere Pro does not provide these presets. They are provided by the manufacturers of SDI and component capture cards and devices, and must be installed with those cards and devices.
  • Page 56 Specify scratch disks to improve system performance When you edit a project, Adobe Premiere Pro uses disk space to store files required by your project, such as captured video and audio, conformed audio, and preview files that you create manually or that are created automatically when exporting to certain formats.
  • Page 57 • Set up scratch disks on one or more separate hard disks. In Adobe Premiere Pro, it’s possible to set up each type of scratch disk to its own disk (for example, one disk for captured video and another for captured audio).

  • Page 58: Bringing Assets Into A Project

    (for example, FireWire or SDI), can capture digital video from tape and save it to disk as files that you can then add to your project. You can use Adobe After Effects to start Adobe Premiere Pro and start the capture process.

  • Page 59: Capturing And Digitizing

    You can capture audio and video from a DV or HDV device by connecting the device to your computer with a FireWire cable. Adobe Premiere Pro records the audio and video signal to the hard disk and controls the device through the FireWire port.

  • Page 60: Capturing Hd Video

    They connect to your source device through RS-232 or RS-422 ports, enabling you to control the device through Adobe Premiere Pro’s Capture panel and to perform batch capturing. Refer to the instructions included with your camcorder and digitizer/capture card. For information on troubleshooting analog video...
  • Page 61 About capture card settings Some of the capture settings you see in Adobe Premiere Pro may be from the plug-in software that came with your digitizer/capture card. Because of the differences among brands of cards, specific options and supported formats can vary.

  • Page 62: Capturing Content For Dvd

    If the digital device offers device control, capture or log footage using the Capture panel’s controls, as you would with a digital source. To help determine the effects of your compression settings on the data rate of the captured video, use the Adobe Premiere Pro Data Rate graph. (For more information, see rate”...

  • Page 63: File Size Limits

    File size limits Adobe Premiere Pro does not limit the size of files. However, your capture card, operating system, or hard disk may set such a limit. Check your capture card and hard disk documentation for information on support of large files.
  • Page 64 Capture panel to log each clip and then use the Batch Capture command to record logged clips automatically. Adobe Premiere Pro controls devices through its built-in support of IEEE 1394 (FireWire, i.Link) and its support, on Windows only, of compatible RS-232 and RS-422 controllers. Regardless of type, if your device isn’t automati- cally recognized, you need to set it up.
  • Page 65 Set up a device for device control Adobe Premiere Pro supports the control of devices such as camcorders and VTRs. It controls DV and HDV devices by way of IEEE 1394 (FireWire, i.Link) connections and, on Windows only, serially controlled devices by way of RS-232 or RS-422 controllers that might be installed on a given computer.
  • Page 66 Capture without device control If you do not have a device that can be controlled by Adobe Premiere Pro, you can capture video manually. You have to operate both the playback device controls and the Capture panel controls in Adobe Premiere Pro.
  • Page 67 In the Capture panel, make sure that the device is online, as indicated above the preview. Insert a tape into the device. Adobe Premiere Pro prompts you to name the tape. Be sure not to give any two tapes the same name.
  • Page 68 Time/Date stamp, such as those caused when you press the camera’s pause button while recording. When Scene Detect is on and you perform a capture, Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 automati- cally captures a separate file (Windows) or creates a master clip with a subclip (Mac OS) at each scene break it detects.

  • Page 69: Batch Capturing

    Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 will capture a separate file for each scene it detects (Windows), or it will capture a master clip for the duration of the capture, with a subclip for each scene, placing all subclips into a new bin (Mac OS).
  • Page 70 In the Capture panel, make sure that your device is online, as indicated above the preview. Insert a tape into your device. Adobe Premiere Pro prompts you to name the tape. Be sure not to give any two tapes you log the same name.
  • Page 71 Click the Log Clip button in the Timecode area of the Logging pane to log the clip you identified. Name the clip when prompted. Adobe Premiere Pro logs the clip by placing an offline file for it in the Project panel.
  • Page 72 For example, if a clip’s settings specify capture at a frame size of 720 x 480 in a project with a frame size of 320 x 240, Adobe Premiere Pro captures the clip at 720 x 480 unless you change its default.
  • Page 73 Each clip’s Status must be Offline. Verify the status in the Project panel List view. If a clip is not offline, select it in the Project panel and choose Project > Unlink Media. If you select multiple clips and some are online, Adobe Premiere Pro captures the offline files only.
  • Page 74 When you import a batch list, the order of fields in the list must be as follows: tape name, In point, Out point, clip name, and comment. When you export offline files as a batch list, Adobe Premiere Pro orders the fields as follows: tape name, In point, Out point, clip name, log note, description, scene, and shot/take.
  • Page 75 For Tape Name, type the name of the tape containing the source video for the offline clip. For File Name, type the name of the file as you want it to appear on disk when you capture it using Adobe Premiere Pro.

    In editing, if you log a capture In point such as 00:00:01:09 but that number occurs on the tape two or three times because of timecode restarts, Adobe Premiere Pro can’t be certain which 00:00:01:09 is the place to start its capture.
  • Page 77 Note: Scene Detect recognizes the starting and stopping points for each shot by looking for jumps in the timestamps. Because copying a tape this way creates a single clip with a continuous timestamp, you can’t use Scene Detect when you capture the copy in Adobe Premiere Pro. Capturing timecode The timecode of source video is captured when you use device control.

  • Page 78: Enter Timecode

    As you capture and edit video, you enter timecode values many times. For example, you enter timecode values to set In and Out points for clips and to navigate the Timeline panel. Adobe Premiere Pro provides many ways to enter timecode.

    You can complete an offline edit of, for example, an HD project with Adobe Premiere Pro and then export your project to the Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) or EDL for transfer to an editing system with more powerful hardware.

  • Page 80: Importing Files

    Import files You can import video, audio, and still files in a variety of file formats into an Adobe Premiere Pro project. You can import a single file, multiple files, or an entire folder. Frame sizes cannot exceed 4096x4096 pixels.
  • Page 81 Bridge” on page 45 File formats supported for import Adobe Premiere Pro can import a number of video and audio formats. It also supports 10-bit color depth, sometimes useful for editing standard and high-definition footage. File format support is provided by plug-in software modules. Most of these software modules are installed automat- ically with Adobe Premiere Pro.
  • Page 82 Supported still-image and sequence file formats Adobe Premiere Pro supports 8-bit per-channel (4 bytes per pixel) and 16-bit per-channel (8 bytes per pixel) still- image files. It converts images with lower bit-depths to 8-bits per channel and images with higher bit-depths to 16- bits per channel on import.

  • Page 83: Importing Digital Audio

    You can use CD audio (CDA) files in a project, but before you can import them into Adobe Premiere Pro, you need to convert them to a supported file format, such as WAV or AIFF. You can convert CDA files using an audio appli- cation such as Adobe Audition®.
  • Page 84 • Set the pixel dimensions to the resolution you will use in Adobe Premiere Pro. If you plan to scale the image over time, set image dimensions that provide enough detail at the largest size the image has in the project.
  • Page 85 • Save the file using the correct naming convention. For example, if you plan to import the file into Adobe Premiere Pro on Windows, use a three-character filename extension. • When you prepare still images in applications that support color management, such as Photoshop, colors may appear more consistent between the application and Adobe Premiere Pro if you prepare images in a video-friendly color space, such as sRGB or NTSC RGB.
  • Page 86 Converting layers into a sequence makes it easy to set up graphics using layers in Photoshop or Illustrator. When Adobe Premiere Pro converts layers to a sequence, the sequence is imported into the Project panel as a bin; each layer in the file becomes an individual clip in the bin. Each clip’s name consists of the layer name followed by the name of the file that contained it.
  • Page 87 Importing earlier Adobe Premiere Pro projects You can add the contents of an Adobe Premiere 6.0 or 6.5 project, or the contents of a project made with an earlier version of Adobe Premiere Pro into an open Adobe Premiere Pro project, on Windows only. The imported project’s clips and sequences are added to the Project panel in a bin named after the imported project.
  • Page 88 (Optional) Copy the entire contents of one or more P2 cards, XDCAM or XDCAM EX media to a hard disk. Though it is possible to import assets into Adobe Premiere Pro directly from a these media, it is usually more efficient to copy the contents of any of them to a hard disk before importing.
  • Page 89 Adobe Premiere Pro imports all of the spanned clips within a single shot as a single clip. It will import all the clips within a shot on a card when you select any one of them, provided none of the spanned clips is missing and the relevant XML is present.

  • Page 95: Working With Assets

    About clip properties Adobe Premiere Pro includes clip analysis tools that you can use to evaluate a file in any supported format stored inside or outside a project. For example, after producing a video clip to be streamed from a web server, you can use clip analysis tools to determine whether a clip you exported has an appropriate data rate for Internet distribution.

  • Page 96: Rename Assets

    All files in your project are stored on your hard disk as individual files. Only a reference to each file is added to the Project panel in Adobe Premiere Pro. Whenever you rename a clip in Adobe Premiere Pro, the original file and file name remain untouched on your hard disk.
  • Page 97 Offline File, Timecode, Interpret Footage, Field Options and Audio Channel Mapping] You can use the Interpret Footage command to change the frame rate that Adobe Premiere Pro assumes for a clip. Changing the frame rate changes the original duration proportionally. For example, if you set a 10-second, 24-fps clip to 48 fps, it becomes half as long, with a new duration of 5 seconds.
