Inserting Transitions [1/3]

In this tutorial we will show you how Insert transitions in Adobe Premiere. Tutorial Includes project files and video.

Start a new document.
Go to the Project Panel and right click over it and choose "Import File"
Import two different videos.

Ok, what you should know is that when you are working in the A/B Editing workspace or the Timeline is in A/B Editing mode, the Timeline uses three separate Video 1 tracks: Video 1A, Transition, and Video 1B. With this layout, you can visually determine the position and duration of a transition between two overlapping clips.

To add a transition to the Video 1 track in the A/B Editing workspace position one clip in the Video 1A track and another clip in the Video 1B track so that some (or all) of the two clips overlap. The amount of overlap determines the default size of the transition.
