Looping videos is a technique for seamlessly repeating a video clip multiple times, creating a continuous playback that enhances the visual impact of your video editing projects. In Premiere Rush, you can easily loop videos to create a sense of rhythm, emphasize key moments, or create captivating intros and outros.

How to Loop a Video in Premiere Rush

1. Import and Select Clip: Import the video clip you want to loop into Premiere Rush. Select the clip in the Timeline.
2. Enable Looping: Right-click on the selected clip and choose “Transform.” In the Transform panel, toggle the “Loop” switch to enable the looping effect.
3. Set Looping Parameters: In the Transform panel, you can fine-tune the looping behavior by adjusting the following parameters:

• Loop Points: Specify the start and end points of the loop region.
• Loop Style: Choose between “Hold” and “Overlap” modes. Hold mode maintains the original clip duration, while Overlap mode extends the clip duration to accommodate the looping effect.
• Loop Count: Set the number of times you want the clip to loop.
• Preview and Adjust: Preview the looped clip to ensure the looping effect is applied as desired. You can adjust the position and scale of the looped clip if needed.

Tips for Effective Looping

• Choose Suitable Clips: Select clips that are visually appealing and have a clear beginning and end for seamless looping.
• Maintain Consistent Framing: Ensure the framing of the clip remains consistent throughout the loop to avoid jarring transitions.
• Gradual Looping: Use gradual transitions, such as fades or dissolves, to transition between the looped sections, creating a smoother and more polished effect.
• Combine with Other Effects: Combine looping with other effects, such as speed changes or color adjustments, to enhance the overall creative impact of your video.
