My plan is to create a tutorial that will show and explain how to
combine still and moving images, in order to create a new video using Adobe
Premiere Elements. It will cover clip cutting, transitions, along with adding
and editing still images. The final podcast will be uploaded to YouTube.
My Script:
I found a lovely, handpainted, film by Len Lye; that reminds me of some
of my older work. I am in the process of combining the film with my etchings
using Adobe Premiere Elements.
I am cutting a clip from a longer segment of film; I found the start
point, clicked on “timeline” and then “split clip”. I am moving the marker to
the exact point that I want the clip to end. There, I like that.
This time I click the “scissor icon” to make the cut.
I have to go the “sceneline” and click on the segment to to find my
clip, click, drag, and drop it into place.
Then I pick my etching from the “project folder”, click, drag, and drop
it into place.
The etching needs to be re-sized and repositioned. I don’t want to use
the entire etching. I can do this by clicking on it and dragging it or the
edges. I can also click on “effects”, then “edit effects”, open the “motion
menu” and deselect “constraints”. Then I am able to change the height and width
independently and re-position the image to what I want to see is on
screen, and I like that.
I clicked on “image control” and I am changing the saturation to make
the image look more yellow. I am trying to make it blend a bit better with the
film. I am also altering the the brightness. There, I like that.
The etching is on screen too long, so I will drag the time marker to
shorten it.
And that is the short of it.
