In the Effects panel, the Presets bin contains presets for populareffects. You can save time by using a preset made for a specificpurpose, rather than configuring an effect yourself. For example,if you want a clip to blur in quickly, you could apply the FastBlur effect and set keyframes for it manually. You save time, however,by instead applying the Fast Blur In preset.

You can customize individual effect settings and save them aspresets. You can then apply the presets to other clips in any project.When you save an effect as a preset, you also save the keyframesyou created for the effect. You create effect presets in the EffectControls panel and Premiere Pro stores them in the root Presetsbin. You can organize them within the Presets bin using the nestedpreset bins. Premiere Pro also ships with several effect presets,located in the application’s Presets folder.

To view the properties of an effect preset, select the presetin the Effects panel, and choose Preset Properties from the Effectspanel menu.

If you apply a preset to a clip and the preset contains settingsfor an effect that is already applied to the clip, Premiere Promodifies the clip using the following rules:

• If the effect preset contains a fixed effect—motion,opacity, time remapping, or volume—then the action replaces theexisting effect settings.

• If the effect preset contains a standard effect, the effectis added to the bottom of the current list of effects. However,if you drag the effect into the Effect Controls panel, you can placethe effect anywhere in the hierarchy.

The following tutorials show how to apply effects to your clips:

In a Timeline, select the clip thatuses one or more effects with the settings that you want to saveas a preset.

In the Effect Controls panel, select one or more effectsyou want to save. Ctrl-click (Windows), or Command-click (Mac OS)effects to select more than one.

Click the panel menu icon to the upper right of the EffectControls panel to open the panel menu.

In the Save Preset dialog box, specify a name for yourpreset. If desired, enter a description.

Select one of the following preset types. These typesspecify how Premiere Pro handles keyframes when you apply a presetto a target clip.

Scales the source keyframes proportionally to the lengthof the target clip. This action deletes any existing keyframes onthe target clip.

Retains the original distance from the clip In pointto the first effect keyframe. If the first keyframe is 1 sec. fromthe In point of the source clip, this option adds the keyframe at1 sec. from the In point of the target clip. This option also addsall other keyframes relative to that position, without any scaling.

Retains the original distance from the clip Out pointto the last effect keyframe. If the last keyframe is 1 sec. fromthe Out point of the source clip, this option adds the keyframeat 1 sec. from the Out point of the target clip. This option alsoadds all other keyframes relative to that position, without any scaling.

Premiere Pro saves the selected effects, including theirkeyframes, to the new preset.

You can apply an effect preset containingsettings for one or more effects to any clip in a sequence.

In the Effects panel, expand the Presets bin,and do one of the following:

• Drag the effect preset onto the clip ina Timeline panel.

• Select the clip in a Timeline panel, and then dragthe effect preset into the Effect Controls panel.

If you dragged the preset onto the clip in a Timelinepanel the drop destination is determined as follows:

• Ifthe Timeline has no clips selected, then the preset is applied tothe clip targeted by the drop.

• If the Timeline has clips selected, but the clip targetedby the drop is not part of that selection, then the selected clipsare deselected. The targeted clip and any linked track items becomeselected. The preset is applied to the targeted clip and linkedtrack items.

• If the Timeline has clips selected, and the clip targetedby the drop is part of that selection, then the preset is appliedto all selected clips. The preset does not affect linked clips thatare not selected.

If you dragged the presetinto the Effect Controls panel the drop destination is determinedas follows:

Use custom bins to store your favorite effects,transitions, and presets in one place. You can create any numberof custom and preset bins. As a result, you can also use the binsto reorganize the effects, transitions, and presets into categories thatare intuitive to you or more appropriate for your project workflow.

Youcreate and store custom and preset bins in the Effects panel. Newpreset bins reside inside the root Presets bin. Though you cannotdrag them from the Presets bin, you can create and arrange themwithin that bin in any hierarchy you like. You can place custombins at the top of the Effects panel hierarchy, or you can nestthem within other custom bins.

Note:

If you have placed the sameitem in several different custom bins, and you delete that itemfrom one bin, Premiere Pro deletes each occurrence of the item from thecustom and preset bins, and deletes each item from all clips thatit affects.

• To create a custom bin, click the New CustomBin button , orchoose New Custom Bin from the Effects panel menu.

• To create a presets bin, choose New Presets Binfrom the Effects panel menu. Premiere Pro nests each new presetsbin in the root Presets bin.

• To nest a new custom or presets bin, select thebin into which you want to place the new bin, and then create acustom or presets bin.

• To rename a bin, select the bin, then click thebin name, and then type a new name and press Enter (Windows) orReturn (Mac OS). Skip steps 2 and 3.

• To delete a bin or an item in a bin, select thebin or bin item, and then click the Delete Custom Items button atthe bottom of the Effects panel. Skip steps 2 and 3.

Locate the effect, transition, or preset that you wantto store in the bin. You may need to resize the panel so that youcan see both the item and the bin.

Drag the item to the bin. Premiere Pro creates a shortcutto the item.
