Here is a list of tips and tricks for editing. These usually involve tricking Premiere into doing what you want it to in a way which is not necessarily obvious.

Syncing footage

Notches

 
Top without notch can be extended, bottom with notch can't

Clips (video, audio and sequences) on a timeline have notches in the top corners of the block to indicate that the full length of the clip has been used. If there is not a notch, then the full length of the clip is not in use and it can be extended.


Attributes

Paste Attributes

Attributes (video effects: position, size ) can be copied from one segment of video to another. Simply right click the clip on the timeline and copy. Select the clip you want to apply the same set of attributes to, right click and select Paste Attributes
