    I prefer to set all my in to out points and then use the automate to sequence tool in the clip menu. This feature is really awesome because if you set markers to the beat of a song you can have the tool set the start of each sequential clip to start at the marker. This is really great for b-roll in particular. There are so many dang tricks on here I'm always amazed at what I don't know but it really is fun to learn it all. I didn't know about the comma trick for example, I can use that trick now too.

  • @ccoquet

    It took me a while to do something similar. Y have a timeline just for the cuts and one for the two final videos (one short, one long). But it's pretty fast since you already cut all the best parts and while you doing it, you are shaping the final video in your head. * Thumbs up for your great vid *

    Hi, how are you!?
    I use some of the same metod, but not woth those keys L, K and G.
    Im moving with a wacom intuos, just with my finger tips and I use the I and O ... but really depends on what Im editing,
    I think that the real tip Im can give, its that we all have to be organize since the begining, when Im importing the clips of two or three cameras of the wedding to save into the disk, Im creat folders with sections...
    1 Church (and the cameras separated in order)
    2 Formal photos
    3 Bride and groom entry, dance..
    etc...
    And then when Im importing to premiere, all videos will be organized in folders, by sections, and I added colors to differentiate them.
    Sorry for my bad english, but I tried to synthesize more or less what are the first steps for my organizartions!
    Greetings from Uruguay

    • @ZachMayfield
      @ZachMayfield  7 років тому +1

      I'm doing well today, thanks for asking!

      You can add markers to where you want the cuts to happen, then select all the clips that you want to add(set the in and out points) and go to Clip>Automate to Sequence>Placement. In placement, select At Unnumbered Markers. It will put all the clips according to the markers.

    This was só helpful! But one question. You pick a lot of clips. But afterwards you still have to edit it to the music, right? Do you have some great tips for that? (First video I've ever seen of you. I subscribed and liked the video, awesome work!)

      Yes I edit to the music after all of the clips are in the timeline. I'll make a video on that!
