hey guys jill here for premiere basics a
show where we explain the ins and outs
of adobe premiere pro today is going to
be an easy one guys but it's an
important one i'm going to explain every
tool from the toolbar and as a beginner
you often struggle with finding the
right tools to perform certain actions
while editing and once you finally find
some of those tools to edit you don't
know what to do with them because who
knows straight away what a ripple edit
told us or a track select forward tool
well we didn't either and that's why we
are explaining all of these tools for
you we're starting out easy the
selection tool well this one is quite
self-explanatory with this tool you can
select everything in your timeline and
it's basically the main tool you will be
using during an edit so definitely
remember the short key v to select this
tool the second tool is the track select
forward tool and this is your multi
select tool if you hover with the cursor
in your timeline you will see these
stacked arrows indicating that you are
using a tool if you now click you will
select every clip right of your cursor
and this means literally everything
video and audio however you can also use
the select backward tool to select
everything left of your cursor and one
extra bonus for this tool if you hold
down the shift key while operating this
tool you can now select everything on
one single track and not the entire
sequence anymore also to indicate this
the stacked arrow cursor becomes a
single arrow the next tool is the ripple
edit tool a super handy tool to make
your editing workflow way faster now
with this tool you can trim or in other
words shorten your clip but while doing
that the rest of the clips in your
timeline will ripple towards your edit
meaning that premiere pro will
automatically close the gap you just
created between the two clips however
this also works when making your
selected clips longer then premiere pro
will push the clips further in your
timeline preventing unwanted cutoff
clips now underneath the ripple edit
tool we have two more tools hiding out
and one of them is the rolling edit tool
now this one is a little bit similar to
the ripple edit tool however instead of
trimming a clip and moving the rest of
the timeline we now move the edit or cut
either forwards or backwards in a
sequence making one clip longer and the
other one shorter and then the last tool
in our drop down is the raid stretch
tool with this tool you can speed up or
slow down clips in your timeline when
doing this the in and out points of your
clips will stay the same only the length
of your clip will be adjusted we are on
a roll guys but do you know who's also
on a roll you and your editing skills
but if you want to make them even better
i would definitely recommend our
skillshare course premiere pro for
beginners not only is it one of our most
viewed courses it's also highly rated
with over 2 500 positive review so far
now from the start we teach you the
basics of premiere pro so how to
organize your workspace and your clips
the basic editing techniques followed by
the toolbar which you will already
understand since you're watching this
tutorial then you learn some basic video
effects that are default in premiere and
often used when editing professional
videos then we move over to transitions
text and graphics and how to build your
own templates you will learn how to
create custom animations apply speed
ramping to your videos together with
some visual effects and you will learn
how to color correct your videos finally
we move on to audio mixing and audio
effects which are highly underestimated
by editors and of course we teach you
how you can properly export your
creation in the best possible settings
the best part is that the first 30 days
are completely for free so go to the
description down below and hit that
first link now let's continue with the
razer tool with this fundamental tool
you can simply make edits or cuts in
your clips easy as that but if you hold
the shift key while using this tool you
will cut clips across all tracks again
speeding up your editing workflow on to
the next tool which is the slip tool and
this tool lets you slip the in and out
points of eclipse source without
adjusting it in the timeline so your
clip actually stays the same length but
you are moving the in and out points in
the source file giving you a different
start and end also while using this tool
you will be given a live preview of your
new in and out points in the program
monitor tool number eight is the slide
tool and this tool is similar to the
slip tool but this time you are sliding
a clip on the timeline the in and out
point of the selected clip remain the
same but the surrounding clips are
adjusted they become longer or shorter
and again we get a live preview in our
program monitor showing us what we are
doing number nine on our list is the pen
tool and this one has multiple functions
first one is creating custom graphics
with the tool selected you can just
click in your program monitor and create
a custom graphics clip but you can also
use the pen tool to adjust existing
graphics now besides creating graphics
you can also use the pen tool for
keyframing certain attributes of a clip
when your track is high enough you are
able to see this line right here if you
can't see it then hold alt while
scrolling over the track or just drag
the track height up by default this is
the opacity of your clip now with the
pen tool we can easily keyframe the
opacity without going to the effect
controls panel however this line doesn't
always stand for the eclipse opacity
when we right click on the effects
button we can choose the attribute the
line stands for for example time
remapping we can now use the pen tool to
start speed ramping next we have the
rectangle and ellipse tool and with
these we can create rectangles and
ellipse graphics seems logical number 12
another basic tool called the hand tool
this tool will simply allow you to
navigate forward or backward on your
timeline and this of course can also be
done with scrolling but the hand tool
can be a little bit more precise next up
is the zoom tool and well this lets you
zoom in of course obviously it doesn't
always have to be rocket science of
course now you can also hold the alt key
if you want to zoom out and then the
last tool is the text tool and once
again this is quite self-explanatory
with this you can create text in your
program monitor just click and type
nothing more nothing less and if you
want there is also a vertical type tool
to again place text but this time
vertical of course and those were all
the tools from the toolbar i hope i
expanded your tool knowledge and help
with your editing workflow thank you so
