Stupid Question – But an answer would improve my workflow
New Premiere Pro user here.
When I hit “f” in Premiere Pro CS6, a frame of the video track my mouse is over pops up in the viewer that is to the left of the main viewer window. (I’m sorry, I don’t know their names.)
Is there a way to make this panel display the video WITH all of the video effects on it? Right now, the frame pops up without any video effects, which makes this less than ideal for color grading one clip to match another.
Thanks for bearing with me!

You are match framing to the original clip in the Source window.
If you want to see the effects related to the clip on the timeline, double click the clip on the timeline and then go to the effects tab in the source window.

Unlike FCP, Master Clips don’t hold effects, only the instances used in a sequence, so doing a match frame will bring the master clip into the source on the matched frame from the edit.
To perform a grade whereby you want to do a comparative of shot X, you are grading, to shot Y you already have graded, there is a panel in the Window Menu called “Reference Monitor”. Open this and be sure to ungang the timeline from it so then you can have the playhead of this it on your reference shot (from the timeline, which shows the effects on the instance and then have the sequence/program monitor on the shot you want to grade.
To show the effects of a clip, there is no need to double click a clip (like FCP), simply select it in the sequence and the clips properties and effects will populate the Effect Controls Panel. Manipulate your effects as you desire.
Understanding the desired outcome helps to find the Adobe way to complete the same tasks. 🙂
