This may be a silly question, but what would a working format be? I'm learning to edit, literally opened Premiere Pro for the first time today. Love your videos so far they are very insightful and have given me a lot to think about.
Glad you find the content insightful. Nota silly question at all. A lot of self taught editors don’t understand what a working format is. A working format is usually a QuickTime .mov in a ProRes codec. You’ll find a more detailed explanation in the next episode! Has that answered your question?
@Unsplice actually I do have another question. I'm on windows and when I use media encoder to change the mp4 files into mov I can't see the video only hear the audio. Is this because I'm on windows? If so what would a working format be for windows?
it was very useful. now i will try implementing step by step and come back for feedback. thanks for the info
Awesome! Glad it was helpful. What do you think of the new whiteboard format?

Yes. You may need to download the ProRes codec if you're on windows. Or you could convert to DNxHD which is native to PC.
