Adobe Premiere Pro CC Classroom in a Book (2019 Release), First Edition

(C. Jardin) #1
Explorer (Windows), you have navigated into the bin.

When you have finished working in a bin that you have opened in the current panel, you can
navigate back to the Project panel contents by clicking the Navigate Up button at the top
left of the bin panel.
2. Double-click the RED Video.R3D video clip, or drag it into the Source Monitor.

Either way, the result is the same: Premiere Pro displays the clip in the Source Monitor,
ready for you to watch it and add In and Out points.
3. Position your mouse pointer so that it is over the Source Monitor and press the ` (accent
grave) key. The panel fills the Premiere Pro application frame, giving you a larger view of
your video clip. Press the ` (accent grave) key again to restore the Source Monitor to its
original size. If your keyboard does not have an ` (accent grave) key, you can double-click
the panel name to toggle the full-screen view.
Tip
When selecting clips, be sure to click the icon or thumbnail, rather than the name, to avoid
accidentally renaming it.

Tip
Notice that active panels have a blue outline. It’s important to know which panel is active
because menus and keyboard shortcuts sometimes give different results depending on
your current selection. For example, if you press Shift+` (accent grave), the currently
selected frame will toggle to full-screen, regardless of the location of your mouse.

Viewing video on a second monitor
If you have a second monitor connected to your computer, Premiere Pro can use it to
display full-screen video every time you press Play.
Choose Premiere Pro CC > Preferences > Playback (macOS) or Edit > Preferences >
Playback (Windows), make sure Mercury Transmit is enabled, and select the check box
for the monitor you want to use for full-screen playback.
You also have the option of playing video via a DV device, if you have one connected, or
via third-party hardware if it is installed. It’s common to use third-party hardware to make
different physical connections available for monitoring purposes. Check your third-party
hardware user guide for installation and setup.

Using Source Monitor controls


As well as playback controls, there are some important additional buttons in the Source
Monitor.


Add Marker: This adds a marker to the clip at the location of the playhead. Markers can
provide a simple visual reference or store comments.
Mark In: This sets the beginning of the part of the clip you intend to use in a sequence.
