Depending on your processor speed and your GPU speed and how detailed your background is, analyzing could take a few seconds or a few minutes. Keep in mind, that when you move the transition, shorten it or extend it you’ll have to run the analyzer again. This is similar to what you’ll find when using “Warp Stabilizer”. Once you place it in between the two clips you’ll get a bar across the program monitor that says “Analyzing in Background”. Simply go into the video transitions tab and then click on the dissolve tab. Scroll down and you’ll find MorphCut. Just drag it over just like you would any other transition and place it between your two clips.ĭrag and drop MorphCut like you would any transition You’ll find MorphCut in the transitions tabīut now we have MorphCut. And, when used too often, it’s almost like over using an exclamation point. The problem with that is that it’s really distracting. The other option is to use the old reliable “Dip to White”. I can also try some old remedies, like at adding a dissolve. However, because it’s not a natural place for a dissolve, it just kind of looks weird, and to the trained eye it’s obvious that I’m trying to cover for some editorial problem. First I can leave it and just pretend it doesn’t exist or try to pawn it off as part of the aesthetic which looks really terrible. To resolve this jump cut, I have a couple of options. During an interview with Atomos I had to make a cut for content and as you can see, what I’m left with is the dreaded Jumpcut. Since its release, I’ve had an opportunity to utilize MorphCut while editing some interviews we did at Cinegear Expo 2015. Saving the preset from the Effect Controls panel.MorphCut is a new transition available now from Adobe Premiere CC2015 which promises to eliminate jump cuts from your project. Saving a preset in the Lumetri Color panel based on color adjustments you’ve created.įigure 4. You can also Copy and Paste your adjustments or save them as a preset in the Effect Controls panel as you would with other effects parameters, as shown in Figure 4 (below Figure 3).įigure 3. You'll do your keyframing and resetting in the Effect Controls panel, and then, once you’re satisfied with your adjustments and want to make them accessible for other clips, you can save it as a look or preset by clicking at the top of the Lumetri Color panel as shown in Figure 3 (below), and making your selection from the drop-down menu that appears. For the most part you’ll make your adjustments in the Lumetri Color panel on the right side of the Color workspace. The Lumetri Color effect functions like any other effect in the Effect Controls panel in Premiere Pro. You can apply keyframes, reset keyframes, copy and paste, or save a preset, just as you would with any other effect.įigure 2. In the Effects Control panel, the Lumetri Color effect acts like any other effect that you would apply, as shown in Figure 2 (below). It's not applied automatically, but once you open up the Lumetri Color panel shown on the right side of the workspace in Figure 1, and apply any adjustment, it’s automatically added to the Effect Controls panel shown on the left in Figure 1.

The Lumetri Color effect is not a permanent or fixed effect. Let’s start by going over a couple of things about the Lumetri effect. We're going to be editing the clip shown in the Program window in Figure 1, which also shows the Color workspace selected. You can now access all of Premiere Pro’s workspaces-Assembly, Editing, Color, Effects, Audio, and the old familiar Editing (CS5.5)-from a permanent spot at the top of the UI. In Figure 1 (below), you can see that the workspaces are now permanently up top in Premiere Pro CC 2015 so you can easily switch, say, from the Effects workspace into the Color workspace, which is the workspace you access when you want to get into the Lumetri Color panel.įigure 1. From my perspective, it's one of the most significant interface updates over the last few versions, so let's dig right in and see what it looks like and what you can do with it. In this tutorial, we'll look at the new Lumetri Color Panel in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015.
