An Adobe Premiere Pro question?
I am completely new to using this program, and I have watched a few tutorials, but I am slightly confused. I added a still picture to the video 1 part on the bottom and when it came up in the window on the top right hand corner it was zoomed in a lot. Why is this? How can I fix this and is this how it will be in the ending result?

The likely answer is your image is much larger than the project size. The average size of a pic taken with a modern camera is much larger than a typical video project size. There are several ways to fix this:
1) resize the image before you bring it into premiere
2) select the image on the timeline, go up to the "effects control" tab and click on "motion" and then scale"..resize accordingly.
3) do as the one poster suggested and grab the corner of the image in the preview monitor and resize
4) right click on image on timeline and select "scale to frame size"
Each of these will give slightly different results. You control what the end result will be by your choice
Hey! I'm pretty new to it too. What you can try is clicking on the picture in the viewer and there should be white dots on the corners. Drag them in to resize and then move the picture to the center. I'm not sure why it does this, but it might be some default setting. Maybe someone else can answer that :)
