Is there an easy way to create a video synced to a beat in Premiere?

Hi ,

I have been playing with Adobe Clip on my phone and I really like the way that you can load up a bunch of clips, choose a music track and it creates a video synced to the beat for you. However, I want to create quite a large video with a lot of clips and my phone, quite simply, cant deal with this. So is it possible to do something like this in Premiere Pro? What I'd love to be able to do is for it to create the basic video for me synced to the background music and then I can edit the length of the clips and play with the sound levels.

Is this possible?

Hi Robert

Great question. The best and quickest way to do this in premierepro is to lay your audio into a new sequence. Then create markers on the beats. Then you can select a bunch of clips in your project window and use the automate to sequence command under the clip menu up top. There's some options for the order, placement (sequentially or using the markers you placed) and method 9such as overwrite or insert and an overlap amount option. Once you have all clips layed into your timeline according to your markers, you can go in and edit things.

Hope this helps,

Steve

Past the manual method listed above, there is a plug-in you can buy for this that does automate a lot of it ... here's a link to a blog about it:
