Create A Simple Photo Montage Slideshow Quickly - Premiere Pro

[@JavierMercedes]

🙋‍♂️If you are the friend or co-worker tasked with gathering everyones photos and creating a photo montage to play in the back ground on a TV during an event or get together 😂.

[@MaiSiegel]

Thank you so much

[@mikeglassburn]

You know. This is amazing. I’m frustrated that I didn’t think of most of this, but I did learn about 5 awesome things here.

[@stragrkinic]

I'm a son tasked with sorting out my fathers holidays photo library (aprox 7K photos over the past 10 years) into a coherent sequence and creating a photo montage to play on the next Sunday's family lunch. Thank you for your amazing work. Watching your videos is always a great experience to have.

[@JavierMercedes]

@@stragrkinic So glad this could help!

[@gustavomayta_]

Today I'm gonna use this with a slight variation on a video for my channel... Thank you, Javier! 😎

[@isaiahgalarza3112]

DAAAAMN you made it sooo simple. I'm working on my Grandmother funeral slideshow and this just made it possible for me! Thank you.

[@borg386]

That's simple? Wth!

[@quirkworks4076]

Not a single word or second wasted. Just pure teaching gold. You just saved me hours of head scratching. Thank you!

[@truefloridaexperience9255]

I have to say, I think your tutorials are probably the best I have seen.

[@michaeldileo8815]

Javier, your channel is soooo underrated. I love the simplicity of your instruction and your content hits the sweet spot all the time. Keep it up!

[@JavierMercedes]

Thank you so much Michael! Means a lot.

[@savopiso]

thanks to you I can finish editing wedding video like 5x faster and spend the rest of the time just listening to the music loudly and dance like no ones watching. You not only gave tips on How to, but actually gave me most invaluable gift - free time. Thank you!

[@arnabroy2193]

This video is a hidden gem 💖 absolute to the point no non sense . Absolutely love it. Specially love the small scenarios u were mentioning that newbies may get caught into. Your videos are not only informative but very very thoughtful. Straightaway subscribed and recommended.

[@mustikasorayamustaza81]

This isn't just a great video, this is so helpful! Been thinking how to make a video that consist of 600 plus photos but you made it a whole lot easier for me. THANKS A LOT MAN! Appreciate you

[@DrFedericoBaenaQ]

Javier, what a great Vídeo. Congratulations for keeping quality while making it so easy and interesting. Love your content.

[@kevingemberling2327]

Thanks!

[@JavierMercedes]

Hey Kevin! I think you are the first person to give me a super thanks since turning the feature on! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@t.j.morris8385]

I love how you catch all the ways we can make mistakes duplicating what you are showing us. Like the user sorted files. Another great tutorial!

[@theitspossibleguy]

Wanted to thank you! I just used this to make my 8 year old nephew a video for his baptism. Thank you!

[@VoiceNerd]

Thanks so much for simplifying this process! I do specific projects like this every year and it gets more time consuming. This has made it 10x easier. Appreciate the help!

[@jamessbca]

Wow. This was dense. Everything I needed and more, except for Audio. But you have a link to that at the end of the video! Unreal. This would have taken me ages to figure this all out years ago! Thank you!!!

[@UralaTAO]

Man you are so good at teaching that. Thanks.

[@OchiLink]

Wow! I use to do all this manually. I finally gave up and then i found this video. I really believe that education is the key to less stress and more success.

[@russlocquiao]

Beautiful man, you're the only one who could help me, I watched 8 videos and yours was the only one that saved me

[@gallitron7803]

This guy’s videos are so neat, tidy, sharp and informative.

[@sharon_hart]

I have used this for a wedding and each year for my company's big event. Thanks, I come back to this each time and instructions are great.

[@tanyathompson5255]

I never thought of using a nest to blur and zoom the bottom copy...I love your love for efficiency!

[@brookbowen3152]

Very Well done! One additional tip: On your zoom-in effect, every 3-4 images or so flop the zoom, to zoom-out and/or remove the zoom completely, make it random so you don't get the same effect over and over.

[@bastianrivero]

Absolutely 👍🏼

[@johnliebenthal]

Way better than most of the other tutorials on this topic.

[@freddieleejonesiii1892]

Brother, where have you been all my editing life? Glad I found your page! I'm putting a slideshow together and was pulling my hair out. Thanks!

[@meekerh]

Just an excellent overview of one way to create these shows. Clear, CONCISE, narration absent all the blah blah blah that too may other video creators here feel they need to incorporate. Good job.

[@joshklein3573]

Thank you for this tutorial. This helped me immensely as I needed to put together a slide show for a friends funeral. I appreciate you so much for sharing this and making it easy to follow!

Best explanations I saw. Perfect between show and explain. Well done. Afif

[@mathew2786]

Wow! You nailed it. This is what I am looking. Thanks.

[@mpsingh3398]

Great video, one question, after creating this slideshow with two video tracks (on nested), how can i use this as a template. Say I need to replace all the images while keeping these settings, what is the shortcut to mass drag and drop next batch and replace the previous images? Thanks in advance.

[@LaurenJaneInspires]

Javier....You...Are...My...HERO. Thank you! This will save me sooooo much time and headache! One question- I'm creating a montage that has photos annddd video intermixed- would you recommend I follow all these steps first to get the photos ready then add in the short video clips? Do you happen to have any videos like this about editing video montages? ( It will be about 200 video clips that are around 15 seconds long when raw, probably some horizontal and others vertical) that I will probably do around 5 video clips, then 5 photos or something like that. I also may take some of the photos and create a collage of like 3 showing at the same time as I have over 800 photos to put in this montage and last time I created one like this it came to around an hour or 2 of video, which the client was happy with but would have been much longer if each photo had it's own screen time. Any tricks/thoughts on that would be super helpful. No matter what- this video alone- soooooo helpful, thank you! 💕

[@pixelcruncher]

Thanks so much for creating this video. I usually use Lightroom Classic, but now have staggered/jumpy transitions. Question: Is there a way to make the order of the images random? My slideshows are 300+ and for a number of reasons, I like to mix them all up. There is a checkbox in Lightroom, but I don't see a way to do that in Premiere.

[@JavierMercedes]

You could try switching the order by date, name, or other parameters in the list view. You can also click and reorder them manually in the icon view. But to randomize them automatically I’m not sure.

[@lisachaly]

Best tutorial I've seen so far on doing slideshows in Premiere!! Thank you so much for the clear, concise, and easy explanation. Much appreciated !!

[@donaldcanonoy3312]

Thanks! Your video content is the safest and most useful

[@justpoppynfamily.2990]

this is an amazing video and it shows i never like or comment on anything even from my favorite content creators most i do is subscribe but wow man this video is amzing!

[@annaboiko3521]

Fantastic! Thanks a lot for creating this video, super useful!

[@raku1041]

BOSS tutorial! You ARE the blueprint for how tutorials should be done! Thank you for sharing🙌 #tutorialgoat

[@Tony-WD007]

Thank you so very much for this tutorial! Quick question, per the program monitor, the scale or zoom in effect only got applied to one image (not even the image I applied the effect to) and not to the series of images. When I scrub the timeline through each photo, the scale values appear to change, but in the program monitor, the image scale stays the same for all the images. However, when I exported it, the effect seem to have been properly applied to all photos. Do you know why this is the case?

[@malcomxochieng9257]

Thanks from Kenya😊

[@laquica4608]

literally what i need to find right now! thank you sir! god bless!

[@jgates]

Excellent tutorial, Javier! Thank you!

[@katestokes6575]

Thank you for this video. I tried the "paste attributes" for the scaling but it scaled some of my pictures too big. What's the solve for this?

[@thisisbgm]

this was a LIFESAVER. thank you so much

[@mikicasporea971]

Hey Javi....you're a diamond ....You know so much...professional and a half, and you know how to show us all your skills on an awesome and easy way :) Thanks mate :)
