What is aspect ratio and why does it matter? | Premiere Pro Dude 2024

Aspect ratio refers to the proportional relationship between the width and height of an image or screen . It's expressed as two numbers separated by a colon, like 16:9 or 4:3 . Here's an explanation of why it matters: Understanding Aspect Ratio: Imagine a rectangle:  The aspect ratio describes the ratio of the rectangle's width (horizontal side) to its height (vertical side). Square vs. Rectangle:  A square has an aspect ratio of 1:1, because both sides are the same length. Conversely, a rectangle with a typical aspect ratio of 16:9 (like most modern TVs) is wider than it is tall. Why Aspect Ratio Matters: Content Creation:  When creating content, like photos or videos, choosing the right aspect ratio is important. A filmmaker might use a cinematic 21:9 ratio for a widescreen epic, while a photographer might prefer a square format for social media posts. Preserving the Look:  If you take a photo in 16:9 and display it on a 4:3 screen, you'll likely see black bars o...

How to understand Video Editing? | Adobe Premier Pro 2023

Observe carefully . You have learned everything from your childhood by using observation. So, your observation will help you understand video editing better.

For example, here I have shown you the making of a chair.  You can easily observe how a chair is being made. Likewise, you can visualize how the video is being made. When you use your logic with imagination, y...

Video Editing, where to start? | Premier Pro Dude 2023

You have been watching several reels, movies, cartoon videos, music videos and many TV channel shows, right? Now, just imagine any of your favorite movie's scenes and just visualize only a fraction of that video like: 2 minutes of scene. Now, after visualizing it, in your mind (imagination), try to observe what things have been done in that video? Observe very carefully! (because this is the most precious advice I would ever give!) You are dissecting the video and understanding the process behind making it! So, for example, you could have observed that the video fraction consisted of two or more different videos.  Also, it could have color correction applied to it. It could have transition effects, dubbed audio and so many things, right? All of this together created a great looking video which forced you to watch it!  Let me show you a reference video for understanding it better!  Also, you could understand the process of making that video only using " observation in your...
