6. Pen tool: In order to draw any shape or mask, we use Pen tool in Premiere Pro. Its short cut key is P. This is one to the most useful tools in Premiere video editing training. We also use it for masking on the clips to create amazing transitions. With the help of pen tool, we can trace any are of video from where we want to hide or reveal.7. Rectangle tool: It is a shape tool which we have already seen in in our previous software such as Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. It is quite similar but here, we draw an object over footage or clips on program monitor. We use Essential Graphics panel to edit the appearance of the shape like changing its fill, stroke, or adding effects drop shadow and background. Another way to edit the appearance of the shape is to use the Effects Control area. Just like on FX icon on shape clip on timeline and it will quickly shift to the panel.
8. Hand tool: The hot key for hand is H. It is to hold the clip on the program monitor when clip is zoomed.
9. Type tool: With the help of type tool, we can easily type over clips. The shortcut key for type tool is T. We can also easily modify the text in text panel which is a part of Essential Graphics and same options are there in Effects Control.
10. Rate Stretch tool: We have rate stretch tool to easily reduce or increase the speed and duration of the selected clips on the timeline. Though we have Speed and Duration panel too in Premiere Pro. But using this tool, we can easily change the speed and duration by dragging the clips end points on the timeline. The shortcut key for Rate Stretch is R.
