Premiere Pro is a powerful non-linear video editor, and it can do all sorts of other neat things with your video besides editing. While most video editing platforms, Premiere included, feature basic transitions like fades or pushes, it can help to have a few extra-special transitions available, be it a funky star-wipe or a subtle light leak.
While there's nothing wrong with creating your project from scratch there’s no shame in a helping hand—even if you’re a seasoned pro. In this article, we've compiled some of the best free resources for Premiere from around the 'net, plus a few highlights from Envato Elements and Market. Note, this article is frequently updated by Tuts+ staff with new and notable items.
