This stop sign is separate PNG layer. It is too thick, I want to make it slim. Is there any effect to do so?

Creating this shape directly in Premiere Pro is the easiest way to customize it. Here's how:

  1. Draw the Circle:
    • In the Tools panel, click and hold the Rectangle Tool to reveal additional shape options.
    • Select the Ellipse Tool.
    • In the Program Monitor, hold down the Shift key and drag to draw a perfect circle.
  2. Add the Diagonal Line:
    • In the Properties panel, deselect the shape you just created.
    • In the Tools panel, choose the Pen Tool.
    • In the Program Monitor, click near the bottom-left edge of the circle, then click again near the top-right edge to draw a diagonal line across it.
  3. Customize Appearance:
    • Open the Properties panel.
    • Select both shapes.
    • Disable the Fill, and set your desired Stroke width and color.

You can do that with masks, but I would do that in Photoshop instead.

I also did with Ps by following way. I also interested to know how you did in Ps.  But I can reduce the work if there any effect in Pr.

 

You can see following short layer. In new version of Pr there is a way to make it long. I couldn't remember it. Do you know?

If you want to lengthen the video on V!, you will have to either change its speed and duration:

or use Generative extend:

since the full length of the video is on the timeline.
