Hi, this is Margaret from Noble Desktop. Today, we'll be looking at the interface of Premiere Pro. When you open up Premiere Pro, depending on the workspace you're in, you'll see a number of different panels. I'm in the Editing workspace, so I'll go to Window > Workspaces > Editing.
Here, we have the Media Browser where you store all the footage you plan to use to create your movie. You also have easy access to your footage from the Project panel. This also has a number of assets you could have in your personal library, info on your clips, effects (which is also a workspace by the way), markers (which help you organize your footage), and history. To bring in footage, double-click on the folder itself. This will bring in the footage and a bin. The ability to further organize your footage is available if you see fit. For example, maybe in this one I have titles. That's where I'll put all my titles for Camino Fuente.
Once the footage is in the browser, double-click to bring it into the Source Monitor. The Source Monitor is where we choose the in and out points that will make up our movie (press I for in, O for out). To make a timeline, click Command + N. Alternatively, you can drag the clip to the timeline. Now, what's on the timeline is reflected in the Program Monitor window. You can use Insert or Overwrite. If you want to add an effect, go to the Effects tab in the browser. For example, if you want to blur the clip, double-click Gaussian Blur. Then, you can increase the scale and position in the Effects Control window.
That's an overview of what these windows mean. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson on the Premiere Pro interface. This has been Margaret with Noble Desktop.
