Make it Sing: Polishing Techniques in Premiere Pro

Now that you've taken Beginners Adobe Premiere Pro, you know how to put clips on a timeline, add text and transitions. Now learn how to make your video "sing" with multi-layered techniques for building your story. 

You'll learn:

• how to use transitions timed to sound effects
• how to use multiple songs in a video to create sections using a soundtrack
• how to keep your viewers engaged with call-to-action text and reformat your video for different social media platforms

This class provides an opportunity to show a video you've created and get personalized feedback from the instructor using Screen Sharing in Zoom. It is recommended you take Beginners Adobe Premiere on CourseHorse before taking this class, or feel comfortable with the Premiere interface already.

Materials Needed to Fully Participate:

• Mac computer
• Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2020 - whether it's a paid version or an active free trial.

I have been working as a video editor professionally in Premiere Pro for 7 years.

Virtual Class FAQ

What will be included in my Virtual Class package?

One ticket includes an access link to your live, online class. The class will be delivered via web conferencing software and feature a live, professional instructor who will walk you through a lesson as described above. You will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as participate from home.

How many people is my purchase good for?

Each ticket is good for one "device" (i.e. one computer, phone, tablet, etc. you'll be logging in from). This ensures we don't get more people in the class than the instructor can handle. Though we understand some people live together and will be working/learning together, the intent is that each class still allows for the same attention to attendees as if students purchased separately. Please be respectful of this!

Will I need anything from home to use in the class?

You will need a reliable Internet connection as well as a computer or device with which you can access your virtual class. We recommend you arrive to class 5-10 minutes early to ensure you're able to set up your device and connection. Additionally, if the class is more than just a lecture you will likely want any materials listed in the course description as "Materials Needed to Participate Fully", though you're welcome to purchase a seat and sit in and just watch.

Am I able to ask questions or interact with the class?

Yes, you'll both be able to ask questions using the chat function in the video hosting software as well as at certain intervals during the class via voice/audio. If the class winds up being on the smaller side, more spontaneous interaction/questions will be encouraged.


Do I have to show my video or speak during class?

While we recommend you do show your video and speak when encouraged to by the instructor, video and audio participation are never mandatory. We find classes have more fun experiences when people are engaging with one another, but understand not everyone will want to do so and that's ok!
