The Adobe Premiere Pro Classroom in a Book (2022 release) disc includes the lesson files that you’ll need to complete the exercises in this book. There are project files for most of the lessons, and an Assets folder containing multiple media files. Note If you have purchased an ebook edition of this book, you’ll need to download the lesson files from adobepress.com. You’ll find instructions for doing so on the first page of the ebook, in the section “How to get your lesson files,” and in “Online content” in Getting Started. You will need to copy the entire Lessons folder to your hard drive before you can begin the lessons. This will require about 7 GB of storage, so make sure you have sufficient free space on your storage device before beginning. See the Getting Started section at the beginning of this book for more detailed instructions. Important!

Acknowledgments Producing effective learning materials for such an advanced technology is a team effort. Friends, colleagues, fellow filmmakers, and technology experts have all contributed to this book. There are too many names to mention, but let’s say this: I have often joked that in Britain we don’t say “awesome.” Instead, we say “perfectly acceptable.” On this occasion, “perfectly acceptable” simply isn’t enough. Rather, I will have to say our British equivalent of “super awesome.” Those people who make this world better by sharing, nurturing, caring, showing, telling, demonstrating, making, and helping are all definitely “much more than acceptable.” Everything on these pages was inspected by a team of experienced editors who checked and corrected typos, spelling errors, naming errors, false attributions, suspect grammar, unhelpful phrasing, and inconsistent descriptions. This wonderful team didn’t just highlight text that needed correcting. They offered positive alternatives that I could simply agree to and so, in a literal sense, this book is the product of many people’s contributions. I’d like to thank the teams at Peachpit and Adobe Press, who made it possible to produce such a beautifully finessed work. As each draft lesson was completed, and with the helpful guidance of Laura Norman, the most amazing and highly experienced Victor Gavenda checked over the text to make sure it was ideally accessible for learners, and all references to the technology were reviewed by the remarkable media technology expert Jarle Leirpoll, who has an incredible depth of knowledge of Premiere Pro. I tip my hat to Linda Laflamme for reviewing the copy and spotting things we would otherwise have completely missed. Tracey Croom kept us all on-track, Kim Scott and Kim Wimpsett take the credit for the beautiful layout you see before you, and Megan Ahearn has the enviable title of Keystroker—checking each and every step in the exercises presented here to make sure everything happens just as expected.
