You can change the rotation of a video clip in Adobe Premiere Pro using the Effect Controls panel. Here's how:
-
Select the Clip: In your Premiere Pro timeline, click on the video clip you want to rotate.
-
Open Effect Controls: Go to the "Window" menu and select "Effect Controls." This will open the Effect Controls panel, usually docked near the Source Monitor.
-
Locate the Rotation Setting: In the Effect Controls panel, under the "Motion" section, you'll find the "Rotation" setting.
-
Adjust the Rotation:
-
Enter a Value: Click in the number field next to "Rotation" and enter a value in degrees. Positive values rotate the clip clockwise, and negative values rotate it counter-clockwise. For example, entering "90" will rotate the clip 90 degrees clockwise. Entering "-90" will rotate the clip 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
-
Use the Dial: Click and drag the dial icon next to "Rotation" to visually adjust the rotation.
-
-
Fine-Tune (Optional): You may also need to adjust the "Scale" and "Position" settings in the Motion section to ensure the rotated clip is properly framed within your sequence. Sometimes rotating a clip will cause black bars to appear, scaling the clip will fix this.
By following these steps, you can easily rotate your video clips to the desired orientation in Premiere Pro.
