Animating a multi-layered Photoshop sequence

In this project you will learn how to import a multi-layered Photoshop file into Premiere Pro as a “sequence” and then easily animate it using key frames in the effects controls. You will learn how to:

 

  • Backup_logo_layers.psd is just a copy of the Photoshop file in case you make a mistake.
  • Saleen_Car.avi and Saleen_logo_Layers.psd are the video and Photoshop files provided by Adobe when you purchased Adobe Premiere Pro.
  • Lesson02 contains the files for another animated logo. Inside that folder you will find “Prp2it_multicam.pdf” which is the step-by-step directions for this project from the Adobe tutorials web site http://www.adobe.com/uk/designcenter/tutorials/. Feel free to try this project if you have extra time.

Extra Credit
If you finish early, “close” this Premiere file and open the Premiere file in “lesson02” called “photoshop.prproj”. Use the directions in the pdf file in the same folder titled “prp2it_animatepshop.pdf”. A print version is also included in your handouts.
