I didn’t just jump right into video editing with Premiere Pro–I learned the basics on consumer-level editors first. I’ll tell you more about that in a minute. Premiere Elements has this really neat thing where you have different views and it’s kind of like training wheels.

And they’re great! I love Premiere Pro and I edit my YouTube videos with it, but I also really really like video editing, and learning new things. The functions and features available, the effects, the workflow between multiple people working on one video project–these are professional-grade features.

Premiere Pro has a ton of video editing capabilities, of course, but it’s geared more for professional-level video editors.

Premiere Elements has a ton of editing capabilities that should satisfy your need to edit family videos, GoPro videos, vacation videos, photo montage videos for birthdays, anniversaries or funerals, videos for your blog, your business, or even your YouTube channel.
