Hey everybody it's Premiere Gal here and today I'm giving you eight free
split-screen Premiere Pro templates that you can use and follow along with
tutorial in a split screen you've probably seen it before where there's
multiple video frames within one frame right and it's not that hard to make but
if you have to constantly redo it it is a time suck so I'm giving it to you to
download and I'm including the video footage as well okay and what I'm going
to do in this tutorial is actually walk you through how I set it up so it's easy
to understand and how to make your own split-screen template so that way you
can do your own going forward okay so go ahead and click on the link below sign
up to get the footage and let's go ahead and get started so we're inside of
Premiere Pro here and I wanted to mention to you an intro but I forgot
that I am using Premiere Pro Creative Cloud 2017 the latest update so if you
are not using that and you downloaded the project file you may have issue
opening it but if you update to the latest version it should be fine
so here in my project panel I have five folders and I just wanted to keep it
organized for you guys so you could understand how to use it the first
folder is where you can edit the placeholders so each placeholder here
represents one of the screens that you see here inside of the program viewer so
placeholder number one is this cow shot placeholder number two is this horse
shot and placeholder number three is the goat shot and if I move down back here
cuz I have so many tabs open and placeholder number four is the other cow
shot so you get the idea all of these placeholders here and I've
divided them up into different template folders have different placeholders that
you can edit so if you wanted to replace this shot with something else no problem
all you have to do is you know double click on the placeholder you want to
edit and in here in in the folder number four I have a stock video folder where
you can put all of your media that you want to use and your template
and let's say we wanted to update this to Border Collies just click and drag it
over here and you can click on the clip in the sequence and up here and effects
controls you can change the scale down and you can adjust the image how you
like and you can turn off this layer now if we go back to template number one you
can see now there's border collies here so the placeholders are really key to
editing the templates that I've created for you okay now I've also created a
folder folder number two for editing the text so here I have a text layer inside
a template one if you open up this folder you can edit text template number
one you can go in double-click change the text you can change the color of the
background and you can do this for all of the different text templates that
I've made here okay and inside it folder number three is where all the templates
live template 1 - template 8 I also have nested templates so you'll notice
template number 1 it has all these layers right a nested template is
essentially just creating a new sequence from this template so I right click on
this template new sequence from clip and it created nested number one which is
just one layer here so you don't have to deal with multiple layers and the reason
why this is important if you go to all templates sequence this is where and you
can find it here under final sequences all templates this is where I have all
the templates streamlined together and I've added transitions so once you nest
one of the templates it makes it easy for you to add a transition right and
you don't have to worry about making a transition on each layer so if I open up
nested 7 and I click on it and go up to effects controls you can see I just made
one keyframe here where it animates from the bottom to the top and so I only had
to do that once so when you have your final sequence all together it makes a
great transition from one split screen to the other just by one simple keyframe
and folder number four is just where I should place all your media just keep it
organized I have it organized by different template all the different
stock video so how did I create these templates like if you wanted to make
your own custom one how do you do it? well it does take a little bit of time
but it's not too difficult and once you set it up all you have to do is edit the
placeholders going forward okay so in template number eight here I have all of
these different placeholders I have eight of them making up this split
screen okay so let's say we want one where we have four the same size that we
see over here and then one on the right that's just one okay so what you're
going to do is you're going to go down to folder number three and we're going
to duplicate template number eight right click on it duplicate and we're going to
change this to template number nine and let's open that up here we're inside of
template number nine so what I want to do is just get rid of four of the
placeholders and replace it with one so we can get rid of number 23 number 24
and lets get rid of 27 and 28 and now I want to create just one here the size of
this frame so what is this this frame is 1920 by 1080 so we know that one side is
going to be 1080 and we know that the other side is going to be 1920 divided
by two so if you take out your calculator here and you take 1920
divided by two you get 960 so we know that that frame is going to be 960 by
1080 so now all we have to do is go back up to this folder number one and create
a new folder here called template 9 and I'm going to create a new sequence
that's 960 if you go under settings frame size 960 by 1080 and then you're
going to hit OK and we can name this the next placeholder number which is it goes
to 30 here under template so let's just call it placeholder 31 so then we're
going to add media to placeholder 31 here in our sequence and let's take
another random extra footage here let's change it to healthy life or something
like that and you want to make sure to keep the existing settings and then you can
click on this clip here go to effects controls and adjust the framing how you
please left to right or up or down this looks good to me you can even scale it
up a little bit now when we go back in template number nine what we can do is
just drag placeholder 31 into the sequence here and all we have to do is
just reposition this frame so it fits where the deleted frames were so let's
go ahead and drag this over until it fits perfectly you may have to adjust it
a bit by entering in digits and that looks good and so that is how you make a
new split screen now we have five screens here one on the left and four on
the right it's pretty easy to you it just takes a little bit of time but
going forward once you make them you can always have them there and all you have
to do is drag and drop new footage into your placeholders so I hope that you
