Nonlinear editing in Adobe Premiere Pro

Premiere Pro is a nonlinear editor (NLE). Like a word processor, Premiere Pro lets you place, replace, and move footage anywhere you want in your final edited video. You can also adjust any parts of the video clips you use at any time. You don’t need to perform edits in a particular order, and you can make changes to any part of your video project at any time.

You’ll combine multiple clips to create a sequence that you can edit simply by clicking and dragging with your mouse. You can edit any part of your sequence, in any order, and then change the contents, move clips so that they play earlier or later in the video, blend layers of video together, add special effects, and more.

You can work on any part of your sequence, in any order, and even combine multiple sequences. You can jump to any moment in a video clip without needing to fast-forward or rewind. It’s as easy to organize clips as it is to organize files on your computer.
