Setting Up A Project in Premiere Elements Our goal here is to get you comfortable with using the video editing software. In this tutorial, we will not be working with the long story narrative of your documentary project so we will be using a slightly different workflow. You can save your recorded audio files directly into your narrative folder as you make them. You will record your narrative using a different software program called Audacity. Your audio recording of the story is the foundation of your entire project so your narrative needs be completed BEFORE you begin to edit your documentary. Music is something you will probably want to obtain after you have your project just about complete so you know how long your music clips need to be to fit your video. It is ok if you don't have all your media when you begin, but you should have the majority of it. Go ahead and add any other folders that you think will make finding your materials more efficient as you begin to build your video.īefore beginning your documentary, you should populate your sub-folders with the video clips, still photos, and audio files you want to put into your project. Once you have your main folder, create the following sub-folders: We will use a naming convention for your main folder which contains the names of both team members in the form name1_name2 (example: courtney_wade). Each team needs to create their own personal documentary folder inside the class folder that will contain a group of subfolders. Since you are working in teams, both members of the team need to be able to access your project so we have set up a class folder on the k: drive where you will store all your media files and the Premiere Elements project file.
Organization of your electronic media materials is very important to your video production workflow.
