Video Editing with Adobe Premier Pro

[Slyfox696]

Anyone good at it? I've never done any video editing ever, so I'm looking for some good tips on a certain type or project, or looking to find a good source of information.

What sort of editing are you looking to do?, adobe Premiere is alot like Sony Vegas inregards to standard editing.

I've done alot of editing frame by frame, you can also use fetures such as chroma key, that's only if you have a green screen background and fancy on doing some technical stuff with that.

The software also works with editing images and dubbing but again you can do that with most video editing software nowdays.

I want to record sport events at school, edit them to include a scoreboard on the video and then play them on the Internet.

I'm not sure if Premiere is what I need, but I have the entire CS3 collection, so I should be able to do something.

You can do that, it's pretty easy....

whilst editing you have three tracks...

The first track will be your video, so basically the stuff you recorded.

The second track will be your audio which is apart of your video (commentary maybe added at later stage or during the game, the fun part can be recording the commentary voice over).

The third track will be your scoreboard, basically you can record the score board and add it into a seperate frame that you can shrink and incorperate at the bottom of your video.

I can also provide you with a step by step guide in regards to doing this.

What camera will you be using?, is it handheld, Hard Disk Drive camera? or does it have firewire?.

I don't want to video record the scoreboard, I want to have a graphic overlay which includes the score.

And I don't have streaming on my camera, so I'll have to record it, and then add the graphics later.
