Hello, hello, I'm Hallease, filmmaker, storyteller, your guide extraordinaire through this whole series of videos.
It's finally time to do the thing.
Because once you've done all of the work of editing, you'll probably want to share your video.
Understanding exporting and when to use it
To do this, you'll need to convert the sequence in Premiere Pro to a file that can be uploaded to a social media account or played on a computer.
This process is called exporting.
There are a number of ways to export for specific moments.
For example, if you ever work in broadcast TV or streaming, you'll learn about the various export requirements for those worlds.
But if you're at the beginning of your journey to become a video editor, there's a good chance you're posting to social media or YouTube.
This video will focus on those examples.
The fastest and simplest way to export your sequence
Using Quick Export for social media and YouTube
is to use the Quick Export feature.
Quick Export automatically applies the most common settings used on social media to take the guesswork out of exporting.
It creates an .mp4 media file that you can post to social media, upload to YouTube, or deliver to almost any platform.
You can get to the Quick Export menu at the top right corner of the Premiere Pro interface.
Once there, you can choose a file name and output location
Choosing export settings, name, and location
where the video will end up.
Finally, select a Preset.
There are a few different ones to choose from, but the default Match Source - Adaptive High Bitrate is usually a great choice.
Once all of that is set, just click Export.
That's it.
The video will successfully export to the chosen location.
So just remember Quick Export takes the guessing out of converting your Premiere Pro project into a video you can share.
Be sure to name your video and select an output location so you can find it when the export is complete.
The default export settings, Match Source - Adaptive High Bitrate is a great option for most videos.
And with that,
Course wrap-up and next learning steps
we've walked through the process of creating a video in Adobe Premiere Pro.
We covered the interface, working with different clips, syncing sound, making basic edits, and so much more.
Premiere Pro is a professional non-linear editing software, so there's even more you can learn.
Once inside the application, switch over to the Learn workspace and have a peek around.
You just might see some familiar faces.
Again, I'm Hallease, endeavoring to persevere as always.
Happy editing, and I'll see you when I see you.
