Adobe Premiere Tutorial

How to Create Bins on Adobe Premiere 


To add bins on Adobe premiere is extrememly simple and comes very useful when in the process of making a long video to organize clips.

1) First to creating bins is to locate the add bin button. It is located at the bottom left of the screen near the imported clips section.










2) To add a new bin you can either click on the add bin button or use the shortcut which is Control+/ (Windows) or Command+/ (MacOS). (The button to add a new bin looks like a folder)






3) Now that we have added a new bin it will appear in the imported clips section.










4) To rename the bin to what you want just double click the bin and a highlight of the current name will appear and you can type what you want.









5) After that is done all you need to do is drag the clips that you want to be in the bin into the bin.
(These are the clips in the bin a popup should occur if you dragged the clips in the bin correctly if not Look at step 6)








6) Step 6 is for those who did not get a popup on the screen when you drag clips into the bin. To access those clips dropped into the bin all that you need to do is double click on the bin and the clips should pop up. 
After you double click the pop up should happen then you will be able to access the clips you want.






I hope this tutorial has helped you in creating videos and organizing the clips you have edited so your workspace does not look cluttered and like trash.

ONW 1 in 2000

    About the Interview 

I interviewed Landon Daniel in this video. In this interview/Video we discussed about Landon's amazing summer where he visited New York and did some exiting activities. Over the interview I learned some interesting facts about Landon as we go to a very deep personal level. Some interesting things that I would like to share about Landon is he is a huge Royals fan and this was his inspiration for making this trip out to New York so that he could go watch a Royals game at Citi feild vs. the Mets. Another interesting thing I learned about Landon was his biggest fear about the trip to New York was the possible terrorist attacks that may occur. Now this says something about America that really disappoints me that a fellow American is scared for his life that he might get bombed its a true shame. 

  Experience with Voiceover   

One of the requirements for this assignment was to write a voiceover. The process of writing the voice over was pretty simple as I am great in writing in formal language. However I did find it a little odd that we had to type out certain words that might of confused our minds when reading. When I had to speak however to get the aduio  that is a whole different story. At first i couldn't record the audio because it was to awkward and id didn't want to say the lines infant of my peers. But after I got over the fear of this recording was simple and the voice over came out really well. 

Experience with Video 

The video filming for this project was fairly simple. All my partner and I had to do was choose a location with good lighting and sit in front of it pretty simple. One struggle we had with filming however was getting the white balance correct and having a solid focus. Another trouble we had was not catching any background noise because the room we herein was fairly loud but with some simple editing that can be cut out. Overall the whole filming process is the most fun of any project and the part  I enjoy the most on any project. 

What I Like about my Video 

What I like about my video is the editing style I used. Another thing I enjoyed about my video is the questions I asked in the video and the answers from my partner. The last thing I enjoyed about my video is the serious tone my partner and I have throughout the video because I feel no interview should be upbeat it should be to the point and get it over with.

ONW Procedures


The idea for this project was to teach good behavior at ONW for incoming freshman or new students attending ONW. In my video I wanted to demonstrate how to check out a book at ONW and how to act in the library. In pre-production we created storyboard to map out the key shots we needed to shoot and where we were going to shoot the shots along with what angle each shot was going to be. Along the way I learned how to use the new camera software and a new editing software called Adobe Premier and how to collaborate with classmates and managing project deadlines. if I were to do something different I would have added more detail shots to the video and added more music to better fit the mood of the clips. Things that i would keep the same is the editing style and the key clips I have in the video. For the next project i will put more detail shots like from different angles and add better music. Overall I enjoyed this project a lot because i got to collaborate with other students and have fun while filming.

Photoshop Tutorials


Final Product

In photoshop I learned the basics on how each tool is used and when to correctly use each tool efficiently. Some key tools that are very useful in photoshop are the clone tool, spot healing brush, and the quick select tool. The clone tool is very important because it can cover up blemishes that are on an image with surrounding background. The spot healing brush is important because it can cover up a messy background and blemishes by blending the surrounding objects. The quick select tool  is useful because it is very helpful in adding a double expose effect as seen in the picture above. The favorite skill i learned throughout these projects was the quick select tool and the clone tool. Both these tools will be very helpful in the future because it allow me to customize photos with my creativity and cover up blemishes easier. My strengths throughout all of this was knowing how to use the tools. My weakness for these assignments was I am a perfectionist and i didn't want to move onto another assignment until every project looked perfect. If I were to change something it would be his dress shirt he has on. I would make the Supreme x Bape logo a little darker to make it pop more. What i would keep the same would be the suit jacket he has on. I would keep the suit jacket the same because I like the black and white effect and the text. Overall I really like doing the challenge portion of the photo shop tutorials (picture above) because it allowed me to use my skills without having to follow another person step-by-step. It also allowed me to show my creativity.
