  Manipulating multiple video layers in the Program Monitor?

  Posted by Barry Romanski on March 4, 2014 at 11:37 pm

  I’m a recent convert to Premiere Pro CC from Final Cut Pro 7 and am trying to determine if here is a comparable function for two features…

  First, let’s say I have a clip on Timeline Video track 1 and another above it on Timeline Video Track 2. Further, let’s say I’ve cropped the clip on Video Track 2 and created a split screen between the two clips.

  Now, let’s assume I want to move BOTH the clip on V1 and V2 a little to the left. In FCP7, I could grab both V1 and V2 IN THE PROGRAM Monitor, and drag them both simultaneously a little left, right, up or down together.

  In Premiere, can’t seem to grab more than one video track in the Program Monitor at a time, without nesting the clips which is an extra step. Is there a way to grab more than one video track in the Program Monitor so I can adjust multiple elements at the same time?

  I also noticed that if I GROUP the clips, I loose all EFFECT CONTROLS functionality in the panel. Why is that?

  My second question is about keyframing. In FCP if I wanted to place a keyframe across Motion, Scale, Crop, ect all in one keystoke, I could do it with CONTROL K. I don’t seem to be able to to that in Premiere Pro. Is there a way to place keyframes across Position and scale at the same time in one keystoke?

  Thanks you in advance for any guideance.
