When starting a new project in Premiere Pro, it’s very important to know what you’re looking at and where your tools are in the project panel. Having a good sense for where things are and becoming familiar with the panel will help move your post production workflow along smoothly. In this course Jason Osder will get you set up with the project panel and explore it in detail.

Organization is key to a successful post-production workflow. And you will feel good knowing your footage is organized and logged properly. This course picks up where the end of your shoot leaves off and before editing begins—when you need to import, organize, and log your footage. Jason Osder shows how to import all different types of assets, from stills to soundtracks, and how to sort and annotate your footage in Adobe Premiere Pro. Plus, learn a few tricks involving Bridge and Prelude (like batch renaming) that will cut your logging time in half. He'll walk you through the critical steps of metalogging and organizing your footage even before any editing takes place.

Topics in this course include:

Using the Media Browser and Metalogging workspace
Importing from a drive
Importing bins with a CSV file
Batch renaming in Bridge
Logging and pre-editing footage
Using clip makers
Working with metadata
