Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Cutting – Ameteur Question

  • Cutting – Ameteur Question

    Posted by Jana Bono on February 15, 2009 at 12:49 am

    I’m trying to get more into Adobe Premiere, after having used Sony Vegas for several years. A lot of the projects I do involve cutting a very large video into much smaller pieces – making an hour-long talent show video into individual acts, or taking a home video from VHS converted to a digital video file into individual videos.

    In Vegas, when I have the time bar set where I want to split, I just hit S on the keyboard to split it. In Premiere, I have to select the razor and click there. Is there a keyboard shortcut to split a video? I looked on the keyboard customization list but I didn’t see one

    Hi Jana,

    I don’t know of a key to razor a clip, but hitting the C key changes to the Razor tool if that helps at all. Using the SHIFT key with the Razor tool razors all tracks
