Premiere Pro Workspaces

[Andy Patterson]

I stated I was going to do a demo about the Premiere Pro’s GUI a couple of weeks ago. I just have not had time. How Oliver set up his GUI almost exactly like I did it (dual monitors). I was going to use the stock video clips from the Adobe competition just like Oliver did. They only thing I sometimes do his have two or even three bins panels open at the same time although all docked together. I also at times put the scopes on a separate monitor like oliver. I have always said the GUI of Premiere Pro rocks. I still plan on doing a GUI tutorial but the screen shots look nice. The only thing a GUI tutorial will ad is the use of the tilde key function.

Maybe Tim will tell me I’m wrong but I’ve long thought of this as the “Let’s Talk About Interesting Stuff” forum.

Anyway, isn’t the FCP X Debate officially over?

Scott,

Come on.

If you’re promoting something – you go where the eyeballs are. You know that.

Heck – I managed to get ONE thread started that was ACTUALLY about FCP X – in the “Final Cut Pro Debates” forum this month.

Those of us who use it should count our blessings.

[Simon Ubsdell] “Another great article from Oliver that takes us behind the scenes of his preferred custom layouts for Premiere Pro:

https://digitalfilms.wordpress.com/2017/08/17/customize-premiere-pro-with-w...

“There are certainly plenty of other ways you can configure a workspace to suit your style. Some Premiere Pro editors like to use the secondary screen to display the timeline panel fullscreen. Or maybe use it to spread out their audio track mixer. Hence the beauty of Adobe’s design – you can make it as minimal or complex as you like. There is no right or wrong approach – simply whatever works to improve your editing efficiency.”
“

Well to be fair PPro’s endlessly tabbed, twirldowned and tiny interface really NEEDS the ability to customise it 😉

And the fact that Premiere Pro has some bugs and flaws. I go back to the Premiere 6.5 days when the GUI looked like it was made by Fisher Price. Once Premiere Pro 1.0 was released I thought the GUI was so much better. I never made videos about Premiere Pro’s bugs and flaws until the CC. I admit they a minor bugs and don’t crash the system but they are annoying. Some have been fixed but not all. Having said that I have found some flaws and bugs with FCPX as well.

[Bill Davis]

Yeah, I should start posting over in the Premiere Forums about my edits and how much wickedly faster so many database driven operations and auditions and Roles exports makes repetitive work in X.

I’m sure it will be received in the spirit of open discussion and the free flow of ideas to help everyone improve.

And certainly not seen as any sort of crass X promotion.
