Narrator: I want to show you the power
of Adobe Premiere Pro.
Before we even dive into the nitty gritty
and all the different things about getting started,
I'm going to dive in, showing you how
to stabilise shaky footage in just a few clicks.
So go ahead and download the practise video clip
in this lesson, it's called Bride and Groom - Shaky.
This is a video clip that I shot at a friend's wedding,
just with my DSLR camera, and as you can see,
it's a little shaky and not so great.
Let's fix that in Adobe Premiere Pro really quickly.
Open up Adobe Premiere Pro.
If you've never opened it up, don't worry.
We're gonna be going over all the settings
in the future lessons.
All you need to do is click New Project.
Type in a name for your project.
I'm gonna call it Shaky.
Click OK.
Adobe Premier Pro will open up
and your windows might not look the same as mine.
That's okay, we're gonna learn how to adjust
all the windows in a future lesson.
But all you have to do right now is
look for the project panel called Project: Shaky.
And it says import media to start in this window.
Double-click right in there and it will open up
a little window where you can find
the Bride and Groom - Shaky footage
that you just downloaded.
Click Import and that's going to bring this video clip
into your project window.
Let's add this to a new timeline or basically,
a new video sequence.
Click and drag this clip onto this little icon
that looks like a Post-it note.
This is the new item button.
By doing this, a new timeline opens up.
We can click through the timeline up here
to drag and play through our video clip.
Just press the spacebar to play.
Let's make this footage not so shaky.
Find the Effects window.
It should be behind the Project window.
If you don't see it, you can go up to Window
and make sure Effects is on.
There's a little search bar at the top of Effects.
Let's type in warp.
Under the Distort bin right here,
we see this effect called Warp Stabiliser.
Oo, sounds cool.
Let's click and drag that onto our video clip.
In the Effects Controls Panel that pops up,
we'll see all sorts of text and buttons and things.
Don't worry all about that,
but you will notice
that there's this little time remaining countdown.
It's analysing this clip, trying to think,
how can I stabilise this footage?
How can I make it not so shaky?
Once it's down, it will stabilise it.
We could go backwards on the timeline and play through.
Mm, smooth, buttery motion.
I love that.
It's completely different than what we had before.
And we can easily see what we had before by
turning on and off this effect
by clicking this fx button right next to Warp Stabiliser.
Play through it without the effect on,
turn that on,
and play through it with the smooth, buttery
Warp Stabiliser on.
We can ever take this a step further,
changing the result from smooth motion
to no motion.
Just click that little drop-down and choose No Motion.
It's going to re-stabilize and it probably will have to
crop in a little bit so that it can
make sure that there's no motion.
And when we play through this,
look at that, that is crazy.
Absolutely no motion for this clip.
This is just one of the many effects and tricks and tips
that I'm going to be teaching you in this class.
But let's first take it a step back
and in the following lessons, we're going to learn
about starting your new project,
the settings you want to choose,
and making sure we're all set up for success
with the right panels
and understanding the layout of the programme.
Thank you so much for watching
and we'll see you in the next lesson.
