Introduction
This is how a professional editor selects the best part of footage, marks in and out in the source monitor, then sends it to the timeline, while the program monitor displays the result. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Premiere Pro series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Premiere Pro has two monitors with different roles. The source monitor is for raw footage, and the program monitor is for the sequence result. In this episode, we select the best part of several clips using mark in and mark out, send it to the timeline, and then use Match Frame.
Step 1: Open the clip in the Source Monitor
Double-click the drone coastal clip in the project panel. The clip opens in the source monitor, and its name appears in the tab. Press space to play. Below the image, there is a timecode display on the left showing the position, and the clip duration on the right, along with a small navigation bar to quickly scroll through the footage. We only need the part when the camera passes over the island.
Step 2: Mark In and Mark Out
Slide to the second second and press I to mark in. Slide to the seventh second and press O to mark out. The area in between is highlighted in gray, and only this part will be sent to the timeline.
Step 3: Overwrite to the timeline
Make sure the playhead on the timeline is at the beginning and the target track is facing or active. Click the override button or press the dot. The 5-second clip directly enters the timeline. Repeat for the beach clip. Open, mark in and out, then press the dot. The second clip connects right after the first clip.
Step 4: Program Monitor
Now look at the program monitor. This panel does not display raw footage, but the sequence result at the playhead position. Press space, and both clips play in sequence. The mark in and out in the program monitor apply to the sequence, not the clip. Open the Braga road clip in the source monitor.
Step 5: Add the third clip
Mark In at the first second and Mark Out at the sixth second, then press the dot. Now there are three consecutive clips in the timeline: drone, beach, and Bandung city scene. Click the beach clip in the timeline, place the playhead in the middle, then press F.
Step 6: Match Frame
The Mi Frame feature opens the source clip in the Source Monitor exactly on the same frame. Useful when you want to reselect another part of the same footage.
Done!
Done. We have opened the clip in the Source Monitor, marked In with I and Out with O, sent the clip with Override, understood the Program Monitor as the result sequence, and used Mi Frame. In the next episode, we will learn fast timeline navigation. Need product video, business profile video, reels and TikTok content, or subtitles for YouTube videos?
