Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 Essential Training: Offline Media Working with projects that contain offline media By Antony Bolante

In Premiere Pro CS4 Essential Training, Antony Bolante provides a step-by-step, hands-on demonstration of a typical video editing workflow, from import to export. After creating a project and discussing how to configure settings based on editing goals, he shows how to gather and organize assets, including video files, layered Photoshop and Illustrator files, and footage captured from tape.

He applies basic editing techniques to assemble a rough sequence, then tightens and refines the edit while doing basic audio mixing. Titles, transitions, and effects are used to add a professional touch. Antony also discusses techniques for exporting the finished edit to disc, tape, and a variety of digital formats.

In this clip, Lynda.com host Antony Bolante reiterates that Premiere Pro refers to files on a hard drive and doesn't contain them, so if you move the files on your hard drive, Premiere Pro won't know where to find them. If you open the project file and can't find the files associated with them, Premiere Pro will open a dialog box so you can locate where it is and select it so Premiere Pro can know where it is in the future.
