Inserting black before and after
Hello all,
I created a video in Adobe Premiere Elements. I need to insert black “cue” time before and after the video. How do I do this without screwing up and shifting all the graphics and music? I know there’s got to be an easier way.
Thanks.

You should be able to Select/All and ‘shift’ the clips.
Or, you should be able to nest the sequence – drop your edited sequence into a new sequence. This will allow you to work with your edit as if it were a single clip.
Either way, you will have to make space in your timeline for the cues.Vince

Thank you so much! I figured it out by importing the final avi. file into a “new” project, with the black buffered into the first and last five seconds.
Tell me though, what do you mean by “nesting a sequence”?

To nest a sequence..
Create a project.
Do all of your editing within a sequence/timeline.
Than, you can create another sequence and drop your first sequence into it. You drop the edited sequence into the new timeline just as if it were a single clip.You might use this if you intend to apply an effect to an entire sequence, instead of applying it to each individual clip.
Or, if you are editing a long feature. You could edit each scene in it’s own sequence. Than, drop each scene sequence into a ‘Final’ timeline, for export.So, the nest is the final sequence, the one that holds the other (nested) sequences.
