Premiere Editing Tools

As mentioned in my previous blog, premiere features Tools that enable the user to manipulate the footage.

The full list of Tools is as follows.

Selection – This is just your average mouse pointer to allow selection.

Track Select – To select all clips on a certain track on the timeline.

Ripple Edit – Adjusting an edit point.

Rolling Edit – Adjusting an edit point between two clips without altering the timeline.

Rate Stretch – Changes the length of a clip, by changing the playback speed to compensate./

Razor – Cuts clips into pieces.

Slip – Moving a clips in and out points equally.

Slide – Moves a clip back and forth in the timeline.

Pen – Creates control points.

Hand – Drags the timeline to the left or right.

Zoom – Zooms in or out of the timeline for a better view.

Learning how to use these tools well will result in an altogether better and more professional edit.
