Adobe Premiere Pro – Learn the Basics for Free

Are you ready to start editing videos in Adobe Premiere Pro but don't know where to begin? This free beginner-friendly course is the perfect first step toward becoming a confident and organized video editor.

One of the biggest mistakes new editors make isn't poor editing—it's poor organization. A messy workspace, disorganized files, and inefficient workflows can slow you down, cause missing media errors, and make even simple projects frustrating to manage. In this course, you'll learn the professional project organization techniques that experienced editors use every day.

We'll begin by setting up Adobe Premiere Pro for maximum productivity, showing you how to customize your workspace so the tools you need are always within reach. You'll then learn how to import and organize footage using the Media Browser, create structured folder systems, manage bins and search bins, and use metadata to keep projects clean and easy to navigate.

As you progress, you'll discover how proxy workflows make editing high-resolution footage smooth and responsive, how to relink offline media without losing your work, and how to archive completed projects so they're easy to access in the future. These are practical skills used by professional editors working on YouTube videos, social media content, commercials, documentaries, and client projects.

By the end of this course, you'll have built a solid workflow that will save you time, reduce costly mistakes, and make every future editing project more organized and enjoyable.

Whether you're a complete beginner, a content creator, a freelancer, or someone transitioning from another editing software, this course will give you the confidence to start editing the right way.
