Bella EZ Keyboard Professional Series for Adobe Premiere
On key and a cut above the rest

I’m not an editor, so I didn’t know the shortcuts and the quick ins and outs of using Premiere. But then I ran across Bella Corporation’s EZ Keyboard products and I knew I needed to get one. These keyboards have color-coded keys that correspond to tools used in editing programs, and have the tool’s icon printed on them for easy reference. What better way to get around Premiere, short of kidnapping an editor and duct taping him to my desk (of course leaving one finger free for him to point to the right tool when I ask a question)?

Thanksgiving for Editors
Just a few of the many things we have to be thankful for

It’s that time of year when those of us who live in the United States pause to give thanks for all that has been bestowed upon us in the past year. So, in keeping with this quaint custom, I decided to list the things digital video editors, and we here at Digital Media Net are thankful for. It’s been a good year for technology in general and video editing in particular. So, let the thanking begin!
