Use Presets in Premiere Pro & After Effects to give your video editing and motion design projects unique color looks.<\/h2>\n

I use video editing presets<\/strong> often to quickly create stylized looks for color grading. They are a more affordable option than plugins for those on a budget. \u00a0There are several FREE preset collections<\/strong> available online that will work in Premiere Pro or After Effects<\/strong> (they work in one application or the other, not both). These Premiere Pro and After\u00a0Effects\u00a0presets<\/strong> are a combination of multiple effects that you can use as is or modify to create your own custom looks.<\/p>\n

In this post I’ll share a few resources for free Premiere Pro presets<\/strong> and how to install them on your system. \u00a0Then we’ll tackle free AE presets<\/strong>, with installation instructions as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Adobe Premiere Pro Presets<\/h2>\n

PremierePro.net<\/h3>\n

Created by Jarle Leirpoll<\/a>, this Premiere Pro preset pack<\/strong> consists of Looks & Grading Tools. Jarle’s Looks has common color grading looks like bleach bypass, cross process and teal\/orange (cool\/warm). The Grading Tools has corrective options like “3-Way Skin Tone Fix” and “Curve Highlight Roll-off”.<\/p>\n

Check out this tutorial on how to use these free Premiere Pro presets<\/strong> in your video editing projects and DOWNLOAD<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0the pack from PremierePro.net.<\/p>\n

Some of Jarle’s presets are designed to be used on adjustment layers, which is a quick way to apply a look to all the clips in your sequence.<\/p>\n

Studio 1 Productions<\/h3>\n

Studio 1 Productions has a free set of 56 Premiere Pro presets<\/strong> called CinemaFX.\u00a0These range from film styles (1960, 70s, 80s) to warm & cool looks. DOWNLOAD<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Installing Premiere Pro Presets<\/h3>\n

Installing Premiere Pro presets<\/strong> is quite simple. With the “Effects Panel” selected, right click and select “Import Presets” (or use the pulldown menu).\u00a0<\/span>Navigate to the preset file and click OK. \u00a0The presets are now installed. \u00a0It’s that easy.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Premiere Pro presets will be listed in the Presets Bin in the “Effects Panel”.<\/p>\n

This super informative filmmaking and video production website has a collection of over 50 free After Effects presets<\/strong>. \u00a0DOWNLOAD<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

They’ve also included a video tutorial that shows you how to install and modify these AE color grading presets<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The “Blue Brown” preset has a a nice tobacco look without completely tinting the footage like a traditional sepia effect would.<\/p>\n

This is a nice collection of 29 After Effects color grading looks<\/strong>. I like the “Beach” preset, as it has a nice warm look and you can quickly modify the color by changing the “Photo Filter” color. \u00a0DOWNLOAD<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
