In Case You Missed Me

learning adobe premiere

Hello Everybody!

In case you’ve been wondering where I’ve been you need not worry. I am alive. And my eyeballs are bleeding, but that’s only because I’ve been glued to the computer screen and the iPad screen. At the same time. I am finally learning how to use Adobe Premiere for editing videos. Learning this has been something I’ve wanted to do for awhile, but I was finally encouraged to take the leap once my friend, Brian, told me about lynda.com. If you don’t know about Lynda I highly suggest taking a look at it. It is basically a site with 100’s of courses you can take to learn all sorts of things from 3D animation to photography to web design and a plethora of other things. They have a free 7 day trail that I’m taking advantage of right now, but I would totally pay for the service. After all, knowledge is great. I’ve taught myself Photoshop and Dreamweaver through a book, but that’s nothing at all compared to watching training videos. The videos are way better. Also, Lynda has a great app, so if you have an iPad you can watch the video on that while running the program on your computer, which is working out great for me since I have a laptop and not one of those 300″ computer monitors. Anyway, the course I’m going through is comprised of about 7 hours of videos, but they take me a little longer to get through because I’m doing every step on my computer as I watch and I have to rewind a lot to catch all the steps. It’s a lot of information to learn in a short period of time, but the program is a lot less like a foreign language to me now.

So, that’s where I’ve been.
I’ll be back soon.
