A Sequence is the main timeline where you edit your video. It is a collection of video, audio, and graphics tracks. When you create a sequence, you set its frame size, frame rate (e.g., 1920x1080, 25fps). All your clips are arranged on this sequence to create the final video. One project can have multiple sequences.
Drag and Drop: Drag files directly from your computer folder into the Project Panel. Double-click in Project Panel: Double-click empty area > Select files > Import. File > Import: Go to File Menu > Import. Media Browser: Use the Media Browser panel to browse and import.
The Effect Controls panel shows all the controls and properties of a selected clip on the timeline. From there you can: Adjust Motion (Position, Scale, Rotation), Adjust Opacity, Add keyframes for animation, Control any effect you applied (brightness, blur, color), Manage masks and speed.
Lumetri Color - for color correction / grading, Gaussian Blur - to blur a clip, Warp Stabilizer - to stabilize shaky footage, Crop Effect - to crop the video, Ultra Key - for green screen removal.
A mask is used to select a specific area of a video clip to apply an effect only to that area. Purpose: To blur a face or number plate, To highlight an object, To apply color correction only to one part, To create creative transitions or reveals.
A Lower Third is a graphic overlay that appears in the lower third area of the screen. It is used to display information like a person's name, designation, location, or news headline without blocking the main video. Example: Name of a speaker in an interview.
An Adjustment Layer is a transparent layer placed above other clips on the timeline. Any effect you apply to the adjustment layer will affect all clips below it. Use: To apply the same color grading or same effect to multiple clips at once, instead of applying it to each clip individually. It saves time.
Green screen keying (Chroma Keying) is used to remove a solid color background (usually green) and replace it with another background image or video. It is done using the Ultra Key effect. Used for news studios, VFX movies, and virtual sets.
