In\u00a0such a demanding business, optimizing your workflow can result in major time savings &#8211; and more business. With all this in mind, we&#8217;ve found two tutorials from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCBw1v1T40f1tIdqqWyuUwIA\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Peachpit TV<\/a><\/strong> that demonstrate how to <strong>subclip\u00a0your footage and nest sequences <\/strong>to improve your video editing workflow in Premiere Pro. While this process not be new to seasoned <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adobe.com\/products\/premiere.html\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Premiere Pro CC<\/a>\u00a0editors, it could help others who are just starting out or who have decided to make the move to Premiere from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/final-cut-pro\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Final Cut Pro X<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/http:\/\/www.avid.com\/US\/products\/media-composer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Avid Media Composer<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"subclips-in-premiere-pro\">Subclips in Premiere Pro<\/h3>\n<p>When I first started out editing I made the mistake of dropping all the raw footage I had shot into Premiere Pro without generating subclips from that footage. This made it very difficult for me when going through the process of adding and removing clips from a sequence. To improve my workflow I began clipping important moments from my footage in the source monitor, then while holding the &#8220;CMD&#8221; key (&#8220;CTRL&#8221; Key on PC) I dropped the subclip into a new bin. A dialogue box then appeared allowing me to name the subclip. I&#8217;ve found this extremely useful, not only for documentary projects (it&#8217;s a lifesaver for interview footage), but also narrative work.<\/p>\n<p><em>For reference, here is a video tutorial from Peachpit TV to show you how to create subclips in your Premiere Pro project:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V9Np-3IyIcQ\" width=\"480\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"nesting-in-premiere-pro\">Nesting in Premiere Pro<\/h3>\n<p>Nesting allows you to place clips\/subclips in one sequence, then highlight those clips, right-click and nest into a new sequence that acts as \u00a0single &#8216;clip&#8217;. This comes in handy when you&#8217;re wanting to add a an effect or\u00a0color correction setting to your footage. Instead of going into each clip individually, you can now just apply that color correction to the nested set of clips. This cuts down on repetitive actions and helps to streamline your workflow.<\/p>\n<p><em>Again,\u00a0Peachpit TV put together a tutorial to show you exactly how to <strong>nest your clips in Premiere <\/strong>Pro CC:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mDQdqTiHZu4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If these tutorials helped you, or you have tips\/suggestions, let us know in the comments below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maximize your Premiere Pro video editing workflow with subclips and nesting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39,"featured_media":48020,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3291,714,583],"tags":[178,467,472,473,48],"class_list":["post-class-post-48575","post-class-post","post-class-type-post","post-class-status-publish","post-class-format-standard","post-class-has-post-thumbnail","post-class-hentry","post-class-category-motion-graphics-2","post-class-category-premiere-2","post-class-category-video-production-2","post-class-tag-adobe-premiere-pro","post-class-tag-motion-graphics","post-class-tag-video-production","post-class-tag-visual-effects","post-class-tag-workflow"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v21.5) -
