Subtitles of the Movie

My other window provides controls to perform 3 point and 4 point edits, these are standard techniques in traditional video editing. The word point in terms of 3 point and 4 point editing refers to the in and out points. In and out points in the clip to find where the clip starts and where it stops. In and out points in the sequence to find where the clips starts and ends in the sequence. In a 3 point edit you'll mark either 2 in points and 1 out point or 2 out points and 1 in point. You don't have to actively set the fourth point because its inferred by the other three. For example in a typically 3 point edit you would specify the starting and ending frames of the source clip, I have the source clip lined up here in my source monitor. Let's say that my in point is here in the clip and my out point is right there in the clip and then you'd also need to specify when you want the clip to begin in the sequence, I'll do that over here in the program monitor here. I have my current time indicator and I can indicate here where I want this edit to start. So let's put it right there. And now let's define that as my in point for the sequence. And now to place this clip into the sequence using this 3 point edit I would either click here, the insert button or the overlay button, depending on whether I wanted an insert edit or an overlay edit. Let's do an insert edit for this example and notice that this clip here which is the in point and out point as set by these settings here is now placed in my timeline. Notice that it splits this clip in two because it's an insert edit, if I undo that, keeping the same in and out points for the source, and the same in point for the destination, let's now do an overlay edit and notice that it overlays the content, nothing is over here to the right. So in 3 point edits any combination of 3 points accomplishes the edit. Sometimes the point of the clip where it ends in a sequence is more critical then where it begins. So in this case the 3 points include the source in and out points and a sequence out point on the other if you need the clip to begin and end at a particular point in the sequence, say perfectly over a line of voice over narration you could set two points in the sequence an in and out and only one point in the source. In a 4 point edit you would mark source in and out points and program in and out points. A 4 point edit is useful when the starting and ending frames in both the source and the programs are critical. If the mark sequence in program durations are different Premiere Pro alerts you to the discrepancy and provides alternatives to resolve it. So let's go ahead and undo this last edit. I have my in and out points and my source, let's go ahead and set in and out points in program. There's my in point, click on the set out point to set the out point, notice that there is a shade here, a blue shade to tell you and up here where the edit will go. And now here in the source monitor. Let's go ahead and click on the insert edit, and it puts it in there. Now if I make the source clip longer or of a different duration then the program by dragging this let's say here, notice that this length is longer then that one and I go ahead and try to insert that edit Premiere will warn me the source is longer then the destination. The options are to change the clip speed, fit to fill. Trim the head which is the left side, trim the tail or the right side, ignore sequence in point. In other words convert this to a 3 point edit. Or ignore the sequence out point converting this to a different type of 3 point edit. Let's go ahead and trim the left side and click OK. And notice that here my edit was inserted in between right there in my program. So there's an example of a 4 point edit, let me go ahead and undo that edit and then redo it and review in more detail your options here. Option one change clip speed to fit, maintains the source clips in and out points but changes the clip speed. So that its duration matches the duration determined by the sequence in and out points. Trim head, left side, automatically changes the source clips in point so that it's duration matches the duration determined by the sequences in and out points. Trim tail right side, automatically changes the source clips out point, so that its duration matches the duration determined by the sequences in and out points. Ignore sequences in point, disregards the sequences in point that you set as I mentioned previously. And performs a three point edit ignore sequence out point, disregard the sequences out point and performs another type of 3 point edit. So there you have Premiere Pros take on some standard techniques you find in traditional video editing, 3 point editing and 4 point editing.
