TRAINING DESCRIPTION

With the release of Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5, a lot of Final Cut 7 editors are taking a strong look at this latest editing entry from Adobe. This seminar is designed to provide an orientation to the new software, from the perspective of a Final Cut Pro editor. We specifically look at what’s different – so you can avoid problems and keep your edit running smoothly.

In this one-hour online training session, host Larry Jordan introduces the interface, show how to set up your system, optimize preferences, create a new sequence, edit clips to the timeline, work with audio (which is significantly different from FCP), trim clips, add transitions and export your project. (We are saving effects for a later seminar.)

This session is all hands-on – showing you how the software works, what buttons to click, and what problems to avoid. Watch as Larry points out the differences between Final Cut and Premiere, illustrates the problems, and shows you the workarounds. The goal of this session is to get you up and running on Premiere as quickly, and easily, as possible. (Oh! And wait till you see the very cool keyboard shortcuts trick!)
