USING ADOBE PREMIERE PRO
Workflows and setup
Project panel and Capture panel
You can also import various digital media, including video, audio, and still images. Premiere Pro also imports Adobe®
Illustrator® artwork or Photoshop® layered files, and it translates After Effects® projects for a seamless, integrated
workflow. You can create synthetic media, such as standard color bars, color backgrounds, and a countdown. (See
"About capturing and digitizing" on page 78.)
You can also use Adobe® Bridge to organize and find your media files. Then use the Place command in Adobe Bridge
to place the files directly into 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. Using the
Project panel Icon view, you can arrange clips in storyboard fashion to visualize or quickly assemble a sequence.
Note: Before capturing or importing audio, ensure that Preferences>Audio>Default Track Format is set to match the
desired channel format.
3. Assemble and refine a sequence
Using the Source Monitor, you can view clips, set edit points, and mark other important frames before adding clips to
a sequence. For convenience, you can break a master clip into any number of subclips, each with its own In and Out
points. You can view audio as a detailed waveform and edit it with sample-based precision. (See "Source Monitor and
Program Monitor overview" on page 122.)
