You will learn to set up, organize, and manage a professional Adobe Premiere project as an assistant editor. By the end of this course, you’ll configure Premiere as a production-ready editing environment, protect camera-original footage through industry-standard practices, and develop systems that keep footage organized and easy to navigate. You’ll also practice maintaining clean, versioned sequences and communicating project status through markers and handoff notes.
This course is designed for aspiring and working assistant editors, including experienced Assistant Editors bringing their workflow knowledge into Premiere from another system. You’ll explore how post-production teams collaborate, where Premiere’s terminology and tools differ from other non-linear editing software, and what it takes to hit the ground running on a Premiere-based production. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll build the Adobe Premiere project used throughout the course: configuring sequence settings, scratch disks, auto-save, a custom workspace layout, and a keyboard shortcut set suited to assistant editor tasks.
