Making Your First Movie with Adobe Premiere Elements

Figure 1: Drop clips in the Timeline to assemble your movie.

Saving your movie for the Web

After you've put together a basic movie in the Timeline, Premiere Elements lets you quickly save it in a Web-friendly format. One of the formats you can choose is the Windows Media format. To quickly export your movie in Windows Media format:

1. Click Export on the Premiere Elements toolbar, and choose Windows Media from the menu that appears.

Alternatively, you can choose File --> Export --> Windows Media.

2. In the Export Windows Media dialog box that appears, choose Cable Modem/DSL in the menu on the left and click OK.

The exact format you choose isn't important right now.

3. In the Save File dialog box that appears, choose a location in which to save the file, type a filename for the movie file, and click Save.

A Rendering dialog box appears.

Rendering is the process that Premiere Elements goes through when it applies your edits and compresses a movie project into its final output format. Rendering may take a few seconds or minutes, depending on the length of your movie and the speed of your computer.

4. When rendering is complete, locate the movie file, and double-click it to open it in Windows Media Player.

Congratulations! You've just made your first movie!
