Next Jeff explains ways to back up your valuable media, along with importing options, naming and transcoding. You’ll learn all about the Adobe Media Encoder and Adobe Bridge to capture and rename still images for use in Premiere Pro.

Here comes post production: Now what? In this section you’ll dive into metadata and the Project Panel.

Then Jeff will teach you techniques to import synced audio clips, manual syncing techniques and how to synchronize secondary audio. Finally, you’ll master exporting and importing XML files to Plural Eyes and incorporating Adobe’s After Effects and Audition to help with image stabilization and audio noise reduction.
