Basic+Editing+-+Trailer+Task

include component="page" wikiName="mhstgj4m" page="Basic Editing - Menu" editable="1" In this task you will demonstrate what you have learned in Premiere Pro by recreating one of the worst movie trailers to date. This is a movie that was created for the first Adobe Premiere Pro Classroom in a Book ever written. One of the first tasks they walked you through was how to recreate this trailer. It's sooooo bad... and soooo funny at the same time. Do I have your interest? Fantastic! Let's move on shall we.

Create a folder called "Worst Trailer Task" in your student folder. Download the necessary files from the link below to this new folder. [|www.scojodesigns.ca/downloads/World's Worst Trailer Task.zip]
 * STEP 1 - CREATE A FOLDER AND DOWNLOAD ALL NECESSARY FILES**

After you uncompress the zip file, watch the file Trailer.avi. Please keep all laughter to a minimum. Who am I kidding.... you won't be able to contain yourself.
 * STEP 2 - WATCH THE TRAILER**

Open Premiere and create a new project. As this is an older video, it is a standard NTSC video. You will need to create a project with the following settings: DV - NTSC Standard 48kHz Your resolution should be 720 x 480.
 * STEP 3 - CREATE A NEW PROJECT IN PREMIERE**

Bring all the assets (except the original trailer) into Premiere and place them in the appropriate bins/folder. (ie. Put all audio in an audio folder, videos in a video folder and so on).
 * STEP 4 - IMPORT ALL ASSETS**

Using the information you have learned and the assets you have downloaded, recreate the original trailer. Make note of the times used as well as where each clip has been placed on the timeline. Use the tracks available to you (don't put everything on one track) and do not feel that you have to use the exact effects used in the main trailer (ie. the scene where he sees the girl in the doorway for the first time uses a zoom effect).
 * STEP 5 - RECREATE THE TRAILER**

Submit your video file (.mp4) to Google Classroom using the settings listed below. Save your file at //YourName_BooksTrailer.mp4//.


 * Export Settings**
 * Format:** H.264
 * Preset:** NTSC DV High Quality
