It’s definitely liberating and I’m so totally excited about what is going to come over the next year. So I quit my full-time job as a ShEditor (Shooter, Editor, Producer) at the State Department in DC just last month (September 2017) and moved back out to the San Francisco Bay Area to pursue video training, video editing and motion graphics full-time. In the past 5 months, I’ve discovered I could actually work for myself. The templates include social media promos, slideshows and some motion graphics text templates for After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro. Then in June 2017, I started designing my own video editing templates which I now sell on my website. So how has it evolved? It started just as tutorials that I thought would be useful and now I work with partners to share the tools they develop which improve our workflow. Not only did it help others, but it helped me grow as a content creator. I really fell in love with teaching and sharing incredible tools to help video creators. ![]() I really didn’t know what to expect after I uploaded my first video, but the response was very positive. My two anniversary of launching Premiere Gal will be next year in August 2018, which I cannot believe because it’s evolved so much in just 14 months! How has your profile evolved throughout the almost 2 years you’ve been doing this? Shortcuts, very important in my field. We repeat tasks to the point we wear out specific keys. It is imperative for efficiency to have shortcuts in your toolbox. ![]() I’ve already seen that Premiere Gal is a safe space where anyone can come to for video help when they need it, especially for beginners. It’s a brand name that represents empowerment for young women in film and video it adds to the shared digital economy of free learning and it a caters to new age of editing for social media and digital video marketing. I also want to reiterate the idea that Premiere Gal is more than just YouTube Video Production Tutorials. Premiere Gal is not just Premiere Pro tutorials, my YouTube channel also specializes in just general video production tips and tricks, After Effects Tutorials, equipment reviews and I also sell video editing templates. ![]() Also, Premiere Gal kind of sounds like an awesome super heroine, like Wonder Woman, but for video! Not only does it connect to the video editing software I use every day, Adobe Premiere Pro, but from a design perspective I was able to fit the letters “Gal” into a square icon (which is similar to the design of Adobe Creative Cloud software icons). So the name “ Premiere Gal” just came to me naturally. When I first decided to create a YouTube channel based on video editing and production training, I didn’t just want it to be my own name (Kelsey Brannan). Who is Premiere Gal, and how did the idea start?
