Learn to apply effects to clips in the timeline. Additionally, learn how to enable, disable, remove, and copy and paste clip effects in Premiere Elements.
Apply and preview effects
When you apply an effect to a clip, it's set to default values and active for its duration. After you apply an effect, you can adjust its properties using the Effect Controls in Premiere Elements 2025. You can make an effect start and stop at specific times or adjust the effect's values over time by using keyframes.
You can apply multiple effects to a clip and the same effect numerous times to the same clip with different settings. Keep in mind, however, that the more effects you add, the more time it takes to render the final movie. If you decide an effect isn't suitable for your project, you can easily delete it in the Effect Controls in Premiere Elements 2025.
