I forgot who request me yesterday to make ‘how to add text to video with adobe premiere pro 1.5′

I only know how to put text on some video. I’m using Adobe Premiere pro 1.5 to do this. My suggestion, this is only for adding SORT TEXT not subtitle. This method not simple and hard to do for long text. i’m still learning how to make subtitle. But at least with this method, I can add some Lyrics or translation at my favorite video

First, before U read my adobe premiere tutorial, please read basic tutorial of adobe premiere from Heryzal . It is BEST ADOBE PREMIERE TUTORIAL in Indonesian language. you MUST read that tutorial first before read mine. I only put simple step how I make Lyrics song on some music clips

(CLICKS THE IMAGE FOR ORIGINAL SIZE)

1. Choose the video that U want to put the lyrics. Convert it to WMV or Avi since Adobe Premiere only able to import this kind of file. U can use SUPER software. ^^ Its free ^^

2. Find the Lyrics. ^^

3. Open Adobe Premiere Pro, and U will asked to fill some information such us, name of file, also where the file will storage.

4. This is The Premiere work tools.

4. Press Ctrl + I to import Ur video clip

5. The video clip will appear on left side and double click the name of file. The image will be appear on the left box. And U can push ‘Insert’ button on Premiere tool to insert the clip into timeline like this

6. U can stretch the video if it too small. The preview will appear on right side

7. Press F9 to open TITLE/TEXT menu like this. Just type whatever U want to write. How it control similar with Microsoft word

8. if U using Adobe Premiere 2, U dont need to save it. The text ill save automatically. But if U using Premiere Pro 1,5, U must save it first

9. Put the text (drag and drop) in second layer of the video. Make it on the correct position so, people can read it easy ^^

10. File -> export -> Movie I usually only choose Avi. AND DONE. Simple right?

Tips :

(more…)

Maybe in Indonesia not familiar with Video Blog. Like what I said in http://www.uang.persusi.org/2007/07/03/what-is-videoblog/

But how about making “Audio Music Video(AMV)” or with some people call as “Tribute”? I was post one of my AMV at http://www.uang.persusi.org/2007/05/12/video-audio-music-video-beautifful-mele-gekiranger/

I cant find exact definition of AMV at google nor wikipedia. So I’ll try to explain it with my knowledge.

AMV mean video which made by fan using cutting video or photos collection and it combine with another song (Related or not with the video/photo).

Still confused? Umh.. I try to give example.

This is My AMV “Vincent Character” From “Smile Pasta” film using “Earthquake Song” from O2jam

Already watch it? The source film is taken from These video

http://layartancap.com/search?q=vincent&searchmode=Video

Thats what I call AMV or Tribute ^^

Or U want to make Photo slide show? (This is combination between Video and photo)

Maybe you wondering why I write some kind like this. lol This is because I want to introduce how FUN making AUDIO MUSIC VIDEO

Its very rare Indonesian people want to make AMV. For example, I can find easily AMV at youtube. But at layartancap or indowebster, I almost cant find AMV.

Why we make AMV?

We can learn new design program such as Adobe Premiere or Adobe After Effect (Any body can give me tutorial Adobe After Effect?)

For me myself I use Windows Movie Maker SP 2 for capturing part film from VCD and Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 Pro to mix with the song

What can I get from making AMV?

1. FUN. wahaha Maybe for some people I’m weird like to created AMV. But it really fun to make Ur own story.. make Ur desired atmosphere at some video esp if the caharcter is your idol. lol

2. Learn to make new program. For your Information my first AMV made at Sept 06. When I made that, I also open the premiere tutorial. Its funny when I remember that. I made it until 2 AM-Midnight. I use http://ikc.cbn.net.id/umum/heryzal-premiere.php for my tutorial. Trust me its best tutorial for adobe premiere and it on Indonesian language.

3. I can get message from my Idol and contact them. ^^ Can you imagine, I have some idol from many country. And when I made their tribute, They response it. My Vincent Tribute got 10 rating after the video appear at his blog. Adam Cheng Watch my Chu Liu Xiang tribute, Alv Band really appreciate my work. And thats like a honour for me. ^^

4. Find new friends who has similar hobbies. Its fun when some one commenting Ur hard work and accept critics to improve for next AMV.

If you interesting to created AMV, let me know. If you get any trouble, just let me know too. I’ll try to help you

TRUST ME YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! Wahaahahah

You can upload your AMV or Tribute at http://layartancap.com (Local hosting) or http://indowebster.com/ (I lost ALL my uploaded video when they reset their database) or http://youtube.com (I get banned 1 May 07 when they said my AMV is copyright infringements. So I dont use this site anymore. Its so unfair removed my AMV and many illegal content still there)
