I just realized I also got Premiere Elements when I bought 11 many years ago, so will be installing it and following your tutorials, they really are informative but I wish you could slow down a bit!! I know your trying to cram a lot into a short video but my head is spinning trying to keep up.

      Thanks Malcolm! You should try my Premiere Elements course. CZcams videos need to be faster paced, its just one of the many things i need to do with CZcams videos so that they show up well in the search listings. My training courses are completely different, the videos are at a slower pace and much shorter with a lot more videos instead of faster paced longer videos on CZcams since I don't have to worry about the CZcams algorithm.

      Thanks John, more Premiere Elements videos coming. But Minecraft videos are here to stay, they are the only thing keeping the CZcams channel alive, I just don't get enough views from my Photoshop Elements or other graphics videos to keep the channel going. So Minecraft pays for the channel which allows me to keep doing other videos.

      @@johnburgess4561 Thanks John, here's the situation, my Photoshop Elements videos average about 1,500 views, the other graphics stuff frequently get 500-800 views. The Minecraft videos are averaging 11,000 views. In my top 30 videos this month only 4 of those are not Minecraft. So what I really have is a Minecraft channel that also shows other stuff. But don't worry, my real love is always Photoshop and Photoshop Elements and I will be keeping the Minecraft stuff to only about 1/2 of the videos. Two years ago I was thinking of closing down the channel because it was just taking too much of my time and not getting the results I needed to keep it going. So I did lots of testing and tried lots of other topics to improve the views but the only thing that worked was to add in Minecraft videos. If I can ever get to 100,000 subscribers I may spin the Photoshop Elements stuff off onto a separate channel.

    thanks george! But can't I just drag my text anywhere on the screen I want? does it have to be centered or aligned? And can't i just stretch it bigger or smaller, like every basic movie app in existence (iMovie, Roxio, etc etc etc)?

    • @HTGGeorge
      @HTGGeorge  Před 2 lety

      Sure, you can do that. Just click outside the text to show the bounding box, which is by default the same size as the video window. Then you can drag the text anywhere you want, plus you can pull the control handles on the bounding box to resize the text and if you put your cursor just outside one of the corners it will change to the rotate cursor and you can rotate the text as well.

      Check the size of your video. Videos take a LOT of memory and can easily crash a computer. I have to upgrade my computer every other year or so just to be able to keep up with the advances in video, which means more powerful computer needed.

    Hi. I use the default text a lot at the beginning of a clip as a description of what you're seeing in the clip. When I have the text drop out before the video clip ends, the video clip does this subtle aspect adjustment like it was had a vertical stretch while the text was over it and when the text drops out it compresses slightly. I've tried cross dissolving out of the text and then the text does this little bounce upward at the beginning of the dissolve, then the video clip compresses down again. It's very subtle, but really annoying. Anybody know what's going on here and what is a fix?

      Once you place the text you can change the font by using the Adjustments panel, it should automatically open on the right side when the text is placed. If not it is the top button on the right side button set.
