With CS4, Adobe has taken the fun of using Blend Modes in Photoshop and brought it over into Premiere Pro. In this tutorial, we’ll use blend modes in creating a simple project that uses video, logo, and a title overlay.

Good stuff but why put Blend Modes under “Opacity”??… should that not be an option by itself.

Good point. Its close to opacity but not exactly opacity. Perhaps they will move it in a future version, because if you were looking for blends and did not think to look in the opacity section, you might miss it.
Thanks Franklin for the tutorial. This is great news to finally get blending options in Premiere.
Keep’em coming
Thanks…I’m going to work on some more for this month!
