    i think editing is so much more than just knowing your software. If you don´t know why you do what you do, this technical skills won´t help much. They are helpfull for sure but If you have no clue about pacing, eye tracing, timing, building tension or what information you want to show at which point of your edit you can master your software of choice as much as you want. Your Edit will probalbly have a lot more room for improvements that you think. Great tips though ;-)

    • @jaridwatson
      @jaridwatson Рік тому +27

      In fairness, he's speaking specifically to the speed of the editing process. But I absolutely made the initial same assumption. I think what we could categorize the point you are making as "storytelling through your edit," or something like that. Hope that makes sense. Super nuanced, I know. I can't help myself sometimes. Cheers!

    • @backlightfilms
      @backlightfilms Рік тому +7

      @@jaridwatson you are absolutely right! i think my point is that you have to master your tools to a level so the tools are not in your creative way. at least that what i want. I really liked the video because there are always things i don´t know (and i like the entertaining way the cinecom team is teaching) and i love to learn but it says what makes a pro editor - and mastering a software alone doesn´t make you pro in my opinion. pretty sure there are pros out there that could make a masterpiece in movie maker ;-)

      So true, people have started putting pictures of timelines where they have 15-20 video layers and 30-40 audio layers and all of it just to potray a cool looking timeline. But it reality it is a very unorganized timeline cause if you are a film editor and once you're done with the edit and its time to forward to for online and grade... that editor will be cursed for having a timeline like that

  • @gustafonseca2
    @gustafonseca2 Рік тому +30

    Great video!! I loved the double-click to add effects to clips! Just a few reminders: the 'Normalize Max Peak to' is far from being perfect and you can still have noticeable changes in audio volume when jumping from one clip to another. Why does it happen? Well, Premiere gets the peak and stretches it to 0 dB, so, if your peak is at -36 dB on one clip and -11 dB on another, you will notice a huge change between the two clips. Another thing, the Gamma issue happens when exporting and dealing with MOV and ProRes. TBH, it is a whole advanced topic to cover, especially applying this LUT correction to your final colour. It is kind of an 'easy fix' but you can run into some issues if you need to be very specific on your final render colour! (Maybe a new video on that would be great)

    • @cookeez7010
      @cookeez7010 9 місяців тому +1

      The double click can be nice except for when youre not highlighting the desired clip. There is many times in which I remember I needed to add an effect on a prior clip in the timeline, and rather than scrolling to it, clicking on it, then double clicking the effect, simply dragging and dropping is much faster

    If you're uploading to UA-cam then Adobe recommends not to use the display color management option. It is designed to emulate a rec 709 monitor so only useful if you're delivering for tv broadcast as web uses srgb. When using the default settings in Premiere if your colours look different when exported and viewed on the same srgb monitor then likely it's a problem with your video playback app (most of them aren't colour managed properly) Try re-importing renders into Premiere to check if they match your timeline there.
