Kelsey, I wish I could send this vid to several filmmakers I saw at a local festival last night. These tips are gold

[@PremiereGal]

Gotta collect them business cards to email them ;)

[@KYLERHOLLAND]

My number 1 mistake is saying I'll do it tomorrow. 😅

[@PremiereGal]

Haha, procrastination is part of the game, but sometimes saying "tomorrow" can also let your mind rest a bit when you need it.

[@ohka.]

I love you kyler

[@SharkBruce]

Triggered. 😂

[@AnnaDandAdam]

Thank you so much for sharing and for using us as an example ❤ We shared this video in one of our playlists. Appreciate you so much. The tips you offered were great!

[@MrTerryRay1]

Wow! this is really good because you teach us what to look for in our edits. Thank you, Kelsey.

[@spicygabagool]

love this channel

[@carlossaavedra4098]

As always, delivering on useful and practical tips. I found the audio edit to be particularly useful as I struggle with finding the way to balance audio most of the time. Muchísimas gracias de nuevo Gal!

[@PremiereGal]

Sweet!

[@Ptpop]

Love your videos. No commercials either. Thanks

[@MohMasou]

This is very informative, thanks gal!

[@HobbyLinkInternational]

Just stumbled upon your channel and very happy I did. Excellent information that is going to help me out a lot. I know what I will be binge watching 😊

[@HeyUncleTuck]

I gotta be honest I came across your channel by happenstance and your tips have saved me countless hours. Mind you I've been dealing with Premiere since 1992 (yeah I'm old) 😁😆😆 But seriously your videos drops a lot of technical stuff in layman terms and I feel I'm a better editor because of it. Thanks ✊

[@PremiereGal]

That is so dope! I'm glad you feel this is a safe and cool space to learn. That's the intention! :-)

[@markylon]

Happenstance LOL such a funny word never used in the UK. We would say came across your channel by chance or by accident, we would never ever say happenstance lol

[@HeyUncleTuck]

@@markylon LOL you're right and my nephew (who was raised in the UK) laughs each time I use it. As I just happened to come across her page. 😁

[@HeyUncleTuck]

@@PremiereGal thanks again because of you I love using the rolling edits when creating KZbin Shorts to keep continuity and time restraints 👍👍👍

[@napynap]

Gal is so good she can show how to edit better video within her own perfectly edited video!

[@PremiereGal]

😁

[@777Domrock]

Thanks for the (as always) awesome tips!

[@ontipayaniga5580]

Thanks Kelsey.

[@krishnakumara2621]

Excellent Video! Thank you. May I request you to please come up with Adobe Audition master class. I am also more interested in knocking out the vocals from a song and just retain the instrumentals. Hope you will help me.

[@IndoonaOceans]

Good video - I think 'Add Edit' is faster than the blade cuts you are using?

[@Balawii]

Thanks alto❤, also your mistake head frame check it.

[@Rajsinghvlog77]

thanks

[@ameetpawar4391]

Hey, Gal make such video's in future frequently on this channel! Very informative thankx gal

[@PremiereGal]

❤

[@saqlainahmed7172]

I always learn New Editing Techniques from your Video. Thanks

[@PremiereGal]

🎉👌

[@rockcaesarpaper291]

I am always amazed watching your videos

[@PremiereGal]

[@CarmenVallone]

Great video! I'd love to see a whole tutorial on essential sound.

[@PremiereGal]

Thanks for suggestion! :)

[@milosmokry]

Thank you for your great video. I would like to ask about shifting the maximum volume, as you showed in the video. Is it possible to move to set these limits from -6 to -12 directly in the audio meter next to the timeline directly with some shortcut or do I have to move the audio line directly from the timeline? Thank you for the advice.

[@Ptpop]

I like your headphones. What make/brand are they?

[@mikkosuhonenphotography]

Appreciate the tips! Thank you!

[@PremiereGal]

yay! You're welcome!

[@BeauTardy]

Great basic tips. Cutting the fat is sometimes hard to learn for beginners.

[@PremiereGal]

It is definitely something to do after your rough cut is done. ✅ So you can go theough and ask yourself, does this shot add value? if not, cut it.

[@photoshopcclatest7933]

Really you're amazing editor ❤❤❤

[@MikeJantz1982]

My Audio Meter is on the bottom of my timeline and doesn't have any numeric values, how to I move it to the side and get the numeric value displayed?

[@ExploreWithUsOff]

Hello.. Please.. Can you explain how to color the maps on after effects?

[@Blue_Bunny_Gamer]

New subscriber ❤ ...good lesson i learnt

[@johnclay7644]

informative editing based video

[@johnstirzaker6281]

As always another useful video. It does not make a lot of difference, but I find 'cmd K ' or 'cmd shift K' to cut every track works better over the razor tool... but I bet Kelsey can tell me reasons not to do that. Thank you again, and I will look forward to your next video.

[@PremiereGal]

my finger is already on the mouse click, I find it faster to just click when I'm there. but totally depends on what works best for you! They both work :)

[@binterekanwal7801]

WE need more tips like this❤

[@PremiereGal]

Yes! Agree :) Working on it.

[@sinadas2999]

0:47 I agree and disagree at the same time. In this kind of content viewer can feel more engaged with camera movement however in most cases it's better to trim it. At this specific situation I'd keep it with a little speed ramp so it wouldn't feel as slow.

[@PremiereGal]

There are many techniques you can use to speed up a moment, perhaps, a speed ramp or a cut, but remember to take the full scene in, did the pan make the viewer feel something? Maybe, or maybe not. There are many other establishing shots before that bring people into their rv adventure.

[@diipanque3371]

thanks!

[@tubaraomartelo7838]

Great tip...

[@CloudGraphics-tl7ez]

I have an audio question and can not find an answer anywhere. Is there a place I can email you? Is that inappropriate you ask?

[@JacksExoticReptiles]

Hey PG can you please give me a recommendation to a great editor on fivvr?

[@20110131a]

4:22 Warsaw :)

[@PremiereGal]

Hehe yep! He had a stop at the Warsaw Airport!

[@eevanikkari]

How do you make those subtitles in the intro? :)

[@PremiereGal]

Watch my youtube video on Word by Word animations :)

[@californiamusic]

Awesome !

[@jakariahasan9011]

love you

[@superstory9361]

Gratz

[@FaRiSSLaMah]

Thank you so much

[@mr.critic]

👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@m1kkole1nonen]

First mistake is using Premiere 😅

[@JacksonFiveOh]

the roast is not free. thought u had said it was free. just to sign up to be notified is 350$

[@PremiereGal]

Hi Doojman, for sure this must be an error and I wouldn't say it was free if it should be-- I emailed Creator Now to ask why it prompted you to get a Pro plan, hope to have an answer soon.

[@PremiereGal]

Hey, so just emailed and they are looking into it. It should definitely be made free! (Thanks for patience!)

[@PremiereGal]

It should be free now!

[@JacksonFiveOh]

@@PremiereGal Thank you! I never doubted you for a second. PS will you marry me?

[@daniv.e8880]

It would be better to add "Basic" in the title!!!!! It was good but soooooooo basic😉

[@PremiereGal]

These are beginner tips, I did think about adding it to the title, but then it felt too long.

[@daniv.e8880]

​@@PremiereGal Anyway, I owe this channel because you taught me many things. I try to help. Best

[@magnasquadYT]

Can you make a video on how to do this? Is it Picture in Picture with green screen behind the main woman talking? Can you do this with Premiere Pro? Do you have to download the videos from KZbin first? ????? kzbin.info/www/bejne/np-5faaZad2on6s

[@markylon]

No 1 pet hate, youtubers that say "go ahead" at the start of every sentence. Soooo amateurish.

[@debolin]

i do not take editing advice from someone who uses razor tool... for real?! razor tool?

[@irisalbarn]

nothing interest, sorry :(

[@PremiereGal]

🙀

[@Shemene]

Cool tips 🫶, for the first tip I normally use the “i”and “o”and then “,”to remove a part I don’t want or need l. Lol i like how you look at it while its playing after you changed something 😂that feeling of happiness

[@PremiereGal]

Yeah, sometimes the rough cut can have more in, and then I go in and chop it down further or keep something in too if it is relevant
