Understanding the Proxy Workflow in Premiere Pro- As cameras get bigger and bigger sensors the file size of the content gets bigger and bigger and can bog down the editing process such that it may seem like only very fast and expensive machines can edit such content. However, the new proxy workflow in Premiere Pro allows for the creation and use of low-res versions of the bigger files which can then be editing on any machine that can run Premiere Pro and then exported from the bigger high quality files rather than the lower resolution proxies. We will cover this workflow in detail

The course overall was extremely informative while still being easy to follow. The instructor, Mike, was obviously very knowledgeable but was able to strip that back to provide the basic details for beginners like myself. I learnt so much in only two days that and feel like I now have great skills that I can apply to work.

As someone with mobility problems, the lift being out of order was a bit of a problem, although not insurmountable. Our room (on the first floor) would have benefitted from some sound proofing as we could hear people in the next room on their course and also those chatting near the tea point. It got very warm so we had to have the door open which also caused sound problems. The soft part which goes over your ears on the headphones left for our for use were disintegrating, although we all had our own anyway. We had to eat lunch in the training room, so a dedicated break area would have been nice if possible. Was anxious having food and drink around expensive computer equipment. These are all just small points but make the difference between very good and excellent.

Simon has been instrumental in providing his wealth of knowledge to Premiere Pro. He has revisited areas that have been explored already and gave feedback and enhanced his methods further. He was patient and polite and informative of providing feedback and gave advice and answered client questions.

In hindsight I think it would have been useful for us to send the instructor a 'sizzle' or 'taster tape' of what we predominantly would use premiere pro for in our industry, so that the content could have been ever so slightly more tailored. In this respect, knowing we had a 'one to one' style session would have been useful ahead of time, as I thought we were going to be in a larger session with less flexibility on content, however overall a super engaging and interesting session which covered lots of content! Simon also very enthusiastic and passionate about the software which helped with understanding its mechanics.

This course was delivered remotely so questions such as training facilities, equipment and lunch I was rating myself! The course was really good and I've learnt so much to improve my current working usage of the software and new tricks to improve my video content. Good that it is also recorded so I can revisit whenever I like to walk through putting what I've learnt into practice.

A fine introduction to Premiere that acquainted me with the fundamentals, enabled me to create simple edits from the get-go and prepared me for experimentation and practice with the assistance of the User Guider and CD. Obviously such a complex application requires hands-on experience, but Marek my instructor expressed the basics very well. Having said that, certain aspects occasionally passed me by because of the sheer density of information. Nothing I can't revise with the book though.

Andrew was excellent. Concepts that appeared complicated were made simple to ingest and I've learned some fantastic tips and tricks to make my life a bit easier. I will highly recommend Andrew and this course to any colleagues who may need Premiere Pro training in the future.

I found the course very useful in reminding me of tools that I had previously learnt but had not used for some time, it also taught me the best practice of how to do things in which I may have been making more complex than needed. The things I have taken away which I will use the keyboard shortcuts, multi camera editing and saving presents for audio and graphics.

Course was very good, could have a better online setup as the course was being held both online and in person. Instructor could have a microphone attached to themselves so when moved away from the desk to for e.g. walk over to the whiteboard can hear them better.

Loved the training days i had with Adam, felt like we covered lots of information but if we needed to go back or stop whilst something was explained it wasnt a problem. It was also very fluid rather than a rigid stick to these details kind of class, we could talk freely about likes, thoughts or what ever. Really enjoyed it and the only downside was i was only signed up for 2 days on the course.

(We took part in the course remotely using our own equipment.) Simon was very knowledgeable and helped those of us who were already familiar with the Adobe suite to understand quicker, more effective ways of doing things, with better outcomes. I do feel that the course (introduction to Premiere Pro) was aimed at a user with at least some experience, which not all of our team had, and as it was so quick moving, there wasn't much opportunity to write notes and carry out the tasks set, which would have been helpful for us. I think it would have also been helpful to have an explanation of the software, and the reason why behind every task to help everyone be on the same level. The XChange team put a bespoke package together to suit our needs, split over two days of our choice.

I thoroughly enjoyed the course; it was both very informative and entertaining. Mike the instructor was both knowledgeable and approachable. There where several hiccups with staying in contact with the other members of the course who where online, but these are standard issues with any attempt at remote learning and they didn’t impact my learning at all. I would recommend this course to any of my friends or colleagues!

The trainer was excellent. He was very engaging and the course was interesting. I struggled to keep up with some of the technical aspects of he course and decided not to complete the exam. This is not a reflection on the trainer though. It's purely because I don't have much premiere pro experience. My colleague Bjorn found the pace of the training excellent because he had more software experience. He went on to complete the exam. It was a great course thankyou and I've definitely picked up new tips that I can use in our videos.
