Editing AVCHD and DSLR Video in Premiere CS5

Here is the link to the Hi Def record of the Connect Session where I go through in detail (about an hour) how Premiere Pro CS5 handles tapeless formats recorded in AVCHD such as from the Canon 5D mkII and the 7D as well as how the Mercury Playback Engine allows realtime playback of this footage as well as how it handles realtime effects in full HD with hardware acceleration.

California Motel

I did a little test shoot the other week at an old abandoned Motel here in Melbourne. Unfortunately weather got the better of me, so will be going back again to shoot some more. Also I am still learning the fine art of timelapse (mental note, remember to turn off AF!) Anyway, I threw a few shots together in CS5, the native support in Prem meant I could take all the 720/50p shots and interpret them all down to 25p in realtime, then playback everything, effects and all in RT using Mercury Playback Engine and a GTX 285. I ran a quick pass over it all with Magic Bullet, but need to spend some more time getting it right. But here is a quick taste of where I got to.

Premiere Pro CS5 - DSLR Support

In this Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 QuickTip we look at the amazing support for DSLR cameras such as the Canon 5D MK II, 7D and Nikon D300s to name a few in Premiere Pro CS5. See how the Mercury Playback Engine allows smooth playback of these files natively, including adjustment of frame rate in realtime.

Premiere Pro CS5 - Mercury Playback Engine

In this Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 QuickTip we look at the new Mercury Playback Engine. See how you can get multiple channes of realtime playback and effects on a standard system and with the addition of a CUDA accelerated Graphics card even more.
