If you want to automate parts of your editing process in Adobe Premiere Pro, add effects with keyboard shortcuts, create custom made commands that you can execute with a simple key combination and much much more, continue watching!
First, Google the words “Premiere Pro Excalibur” and then click the website “Knights of the editing table”.
Scroll down to the plugin “Excalibur” and click “Buy”.
Then you can click the manuscript at the bottom (to find helpful instructions and FAQ) about this plugin.
Now unpack the Zip-file you got after paying, install the plugin for the operating system you are using and then we need to change two things before we can start using it.
Go to “System settings” on your computer and click “Privacy & Security”
Then, scroll down to “Accessibility”, click that and enable “Premiere Pro”.
Now go back, click “Input Monitoring” just underneath and enable “Premiere Pro” there as well.
(Click plus-sign to add the program if you can’t find it)
Now you can open Premiere Pro, click “opt/alt” + “spacebar” to open Excalibur, paste the license key that you got in your inbox, click “enter”, and now you can start using the plugin.
Now, if you go to Window, Extensions and Excalibur Settings, you can find a long list of commands that you can search for in Excalibur or connect a keyboard shortcut to.
Next week I will publish a video with some specific tips on how you can use this plugin to your advantage and link to it at the end of this video, but until then you can click the link in the comment section below to check out the website where you can download the plugin.
(If it doesn’t work, close Premiere Pro and restart computer)

![How to scale a shape in any direction in After Effects
If you want to scale or resize a shape in only one direction in Adobe After Effects, for example left, up, right, down, this is how you can do that.
First, you want to open your Shape layer, go to “Contents”, “Rectangle”, “Rectangle Path” (or “Ellipse” and “Ellipse Path” if it is a circle) and then unselect “Constrain proportions” next to “Size” to resize the height and width individually.
If you go to “Transform” and “Scale”, it will resize the whole shape, including the stroke, and that is why we are using the “Size” property instead.
Now, to resize the shape in only one direction, hold down “option/alt” while clicking on the stopwatch next to “Anchor Point” (under Transform).
Here you want to paste the expression that you can find in the video description underneath this video, just make sure to put the name of your shape in the first parentheses and the name of your shape path in the second parentheses.
Now, when you resize the the width and height with the “Size”-property, it will only resize in one direction.
To do this in the opposite direction, just do the same thing but instead of dividing the width and height in “2” in your expression, divide it in “-2” and now it will grow in the opposite direction.
And if you want to move the stroke of this shape to the outside or inside of the shape, check the tutorial that I will link here at the end and don’t forget to subscribe.
💻 EXPRESSION:
box_width = content (Rectangle 1) .content(Rectangle Path 1) .size[0];
box_height = content (Rectangle 1) .content(Rectangle Path 1) .size[1];
[box_ width/2, box_height/2]
(Rename Rectangle 1 and Rectangle Path 1 if needed, based on your shape name and path name)
