help with editing on Adobe Premiere 6.5?

Recommended Posts

I am hoping someone can help me out. I have just started playing with Adobe Premiere 6.5 and when I delete out something on the Timeline it leaves a blank space. How do I connect everything together from the blank spot in the timeline to the end and move it all to the left together without having to move everything piece by piece?

If you look at the toolbar you will likely see a selection that appears like a dotted-line box. Click and hold on this box and you'll see three other options. One of those options will be a pair of arrows. Use this if you want to move *everything* south of that on the timeline in one direction, forward or backward.

If you'd rather be more selective and only move portions at one time (leaving, for example, a music track in place at the bottom), you can use that dotted line box tool as a lasso.

And remember ctrl-z (undo) is the magic button for trying any new tool.

If you are doing everything on one level and want to rapidly move everything from that point on right click in the blank space and choose "Ripple delete". This will delete the blank space and move everything that much closer to the start on the timeline.

Check out the FAQ's in Premiere before going too much further or else you'll be spending the next 6 months unlearning the bad habits that self teaching cause.
