How to edit

1. Open Adobe Premier and create a 'New Folder'

2. Insert the tape in which the footage has been filmed into the machine.

3. At the beginning of the footage click the In/Out button and at the end click it again. This now means all the footage has been captured onto the computer.

- At the bottom of the screen there is a long bar. Once you have captured the footage it appears under the title you have given it on the bar. On top of the bar is time line. Clicking on the time you want allows you to see the shots that amount of time into the sequence.

4. Using the 'razor' slice the different shots - this allows you to move them around individually

- Once this is done you can play around with the sequence, changing the order of events to suit the purpose. This means that everything does not need to be filmed in order.

- By clicking the scroll button on the keyboard at the same time as the up/down button the bar at the bottom of the screen stretches or shrinks, this allows you to make more accurate cuts down to a tenth of a second.

Sound

In order to change sound elements you must separate the sound from the visuals. The sound has its own bar at the bottom of the screen and can be cut and sliced using the ‘Razor’ tool exactly like the visuals. The cut bars of sound can then be moved around in a different order, not necessarily in going in tune with the visuals. This is used to create sound bridges.

Importing sound: Download the sound onto the system, once there it can be used in the same way as the sound captured by tape.
