4
Repeat step 3 on the second speed keyframe to create a transition there as well.
5
Render and play the clip to see the effect.
Using time remapping with reverse motion
Reversing a clip can add comedy or drama to a sequence. Time remapping allows 
you to easily adjust variable speed remapping and do reverse motion in the 
same clip.
1
Open Lesson 11-5.prproj.
2
Select the Practice sequence.
As you add time adjustments to the clip, it will change length.
#
 Note:
The speed 
keyframes are actually 
two icons next to 
each other. You can 
drag these two icons 
apart to create a 
speed transition.
#
 Note:
If you have 
problems creating 
these speed keyframe 
transitions, open the 
Complete sequence 
to see the completed 
project.

LESSON 11
Changing Time
3
Ctrl-drag (Windows) or Command-drag (Mac OS) the right half of the first 
speed keyframe to the right about one second, to about 00:00:02:00 on the 
Timeline. Notice the keyboard modifier creates a reverse speed keyframe; 
that is, when you drag to the right, you are dragging backward in time.
4
Play the clip to see the effect.
5
To make the reverse portion of the clip move in slow motion, drag the yellow 
line up to –50% for that section of the clip. (The –50% setting represents 50 
percent slow motion in reverse.)
6
Drag the right half of the first keyframe to the right to make the transition from 
forward motion to reverse motion gradual.
Time remapping is a powerful feature in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5. The quality of 
the slow motion is very good. Experiment with slowing down and speeding up 
time, but always try to make the effect match the mood of your project or the story 
you are telling.
