Chapter 2. Cutting a Short Film without Getting Stung

Premiere Pro CS6 has been designed and refined over the years to make video editing easier, but that doesn't make editing a simple task; you still need a certain degree of know-how and talent to make it happen. Think of how a Formula One car is designed by the best car technicians on the planet, yet only a handful of people in the world can drive one to perfection. Fortunately, making a film with Premiere Pro CS6 isn't as hard as winning a Formula One race, but it still requires preparation, practice, and a little of the aforementioned talent.

You also need to understand the Premiere Pro CS6 editing workflows. Get that under your belt and you are ready to tackle any film project, whether long or short.
